Fun facts about bagels...
America’s passion for bagels didn’t get going until the 1970s when “ethnic food” became trendy. Taking advantage of this, the Lender family began selling their brand of bagels to supermarkets around the country. They came up with witty ad campaigns and marketed their frozen bagels as “the Jewish English muffin.”
Before that it had been a staple of the Jewish community and that of many New Yorkers. Immigrants from Eastern Europe had brought the delicacy over with them. Written records about the chewy delicacy can be found as far back as 1610, and bagels are similar to a ring-shaped 14th century Polish bread called obwarzanek.
