      Ok, I see, but I’d love to hear what cities along the east coast you think are better than nyc.

          Admittedly, the bagels are good. Having said that, we could just return NYC to natural, forested land, and build a pipeline that delivers the water directly to the back of bagel shops and only bagel shops all along the eastern 1/3 of North America.

              I mean you can definitely get good bagels elsewhere that have been boiled before baking, one of the specific things about bagels in NYC is the specific level of the water hardness that makes for an ideally textured bagel. This could absolutely be done artificially with water softeners or by adding minerals, but NYC is already there. Too soft of water and it gets goopy, too hard and the gluten gets super stiff.

          Philly and Boston are both better cities than New York no joke

        my fav city on the east coast is Lig, Massachusetts. Really positive vibes, great food, diverse, college town, has a socialist mayor.

        So much better than NYC and it’s ridiculous that new yorkers are so arrogant about their shitty, expensive, violent police state city. Lig abolished their police force over a decade ago.
