    Do people actually eat salt bagels? haha, ew.
    Those are pretty insane numbers, but to be expected at restaurants and fast food joints. Bloat city!

    It was pretty funny, my hubby and I were out at a local chain restaurant, pulled up their nutrition menu on my phone to help him figure out what he was going to have, he nearly fell out of the booth when I started reading the sodium and fat levels in most of his favorite choices, lol.

    I do. Yum. They're like a soft pretzel and a bagel had a delicious baby.

    They are so delicious. Especially with cream cheese.
