CLEARLY the best varieties...in order are:

Number 1:

Sweet cream cheese on sweet bagel. Such as:

*cinnamon bagel with cinnamon sugar cream cheese


Number 2:

Sweet cream cheese on plain bagel. Such as:



*wheat bagel with honey walnut! :)

A close 3rd:
Sweet bagel with plain cream cheese:

*cinnamon sugar bagel with plain OR blueberry bagel with plain


Now...there COULD be an argument for SAVORY bagels...such as an onion bagel with garlicky cream cheese or spreadable swiss; HOWEVER, I'm not convinced.

if you ask me it's really not even a competition (okay, ^^that would be number 4 because the WORST is a plain bagel with plain cream cheese).

Discuss! Favorite bagel/cream cheese/ other topping combo :)


p.s. IT'S A REST DAY and I'm a morning person....so I have lots of time on my hands! :)

    well since you asked... today i had a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese and some CARROT CAKE JAM that my mom made and mailed to me! it was soooo good! very worth the 500 calories :love:

    i have a bagel at least 3 days a week. my usual fave is a sesame seed bagel with pimento cheese! most of my co workers think i'm crazy for having it at breakfast, but i've got a couple of 'em hooked on it now!

    I usually have Thin wheat bagel with laughing cow cinnamon cream cheese. Total 145 calories for all! Only 19 carbs.

    I like a sweet and savoury combo. I eat a multigrain bagel with grated cheddar cheese and sliced grapes. Best bagel ever.

    Asiago bagel, no cream cheese necessary, is my breakfast almost daily. Unless the "greedy people" get to the grocery store before me and buy all the asiagos before I get a chance to.

    I used to get a bacon and cheddar egg bagel from Wegmans that was pure heaven. Well, they still do have them, but it's like $1.50 for one, when they used to be the same price as all the others ($.55 each).

    I've paid nearly $3 for a bagel with cream cheese---has to be REALLY SPECIAL though!

    I'm more of a half-bagel with light plain cream cheese. Yum.
    I tried one with.... some sort of flavoring once and it was excellent. Don't remember what the flavor though, was, otherwise I'd be buying it.

    I like everything bagels with lox and cream cheese. Sweet bagels just seem wrong to me!

    Well before I found out I had 392586923856 allergies, I would get whole grain bagles and either toast them with a little butter/garlic/onion, or toast them with a little butter/cinnamon/sugar. I never was a cream cheese person.

    butter/cinnamon/sugar--yes please! :)

    Udi's and Glutino make gluten free if that's your allergy.

    Asiago bagels with cream cheese. I LOVE CARBS. They help regulate my blood sugar...maybe not the carbs from a bagel but hey...who's keeping track? >.>

    haha. love it. if you put cheese/peanut butter on it then the insulin response is not as extreme. So there's always that ;)
