I just found out what a scooped bagel is and it sounds really wasteful, I bet they just throw away all that food
"but it's fewer calories!"
my sibling in christ you can simply eat half a bagel
I bet they just throw away all that food
They do that by default. Then they lock the dumpsters. Or the police show up and poor bleach on it.
Can you in turn please stop sending New Yorkers to LA so they can stop acting smug about having seasons despite then being the one to willingly move here
No one asked Kathy, and no one cares.
Tbf only the most insufferable New Yorkers would leave for a city as shit as LA
Ask LA'ers to stop pissing their pants and saying they miss their sunny unwalkable suburbs every time it's under 60 degrees
^see this kind of new yorker right here, probably came in riding a rat while eating a dusty bagel they bought from one of their bondengles or whatever after leaving their coffin apartment they pay 3,000 a month (it has a window facing a brick wall)
As a Minnesotan staring at the prospect of imminent winter, let me tell you that seasons fucking blow. Give me sandals & sundresses weather 24/7
As a Floridian just getting out of the worst summer of all time if it was never warm enough to wear shorts again I would die a happy man
Whoah, I was thinking like California here. Always assume a sensible person does not want to go to florida
Granted but now you have to deal with temperatures below -40° in winter
New York's already got a settler gentrification problem; we need to straight up Evict them from the city never mind turn them away from the border
Nah, people fleeing the boonies are in the right to do so (not that I'm biased since I was born in bumfuck nowhere and want to live somewhere where I know my neighbors don't want to kill me.)
What New York SHOULD do is mass deport the CHUDs on Staten Island and Suffolk County, then it's goated.
Excited to see the governor of Texas spend $50M running "We have scooped gluten free bagels!" in California media markets to try and win over ex-pats.
I don't like baked wheat foods and bagels are the worst of such foods
Avocado toast is relatively cheap (especially if you make it yourself) and calorie dense
Scooped bagels are wasteful and bougie and cringe
Avocado toast is relatively cheap
if you live near where they're grown
here they're ridiculously expensive
I mean I live in the north-east US so they're pretty expensive here too but if you consider how filling they are it's still relatively cheap
Like per fruit, avocados might be 2x the price of apples, but they got 2.5x the calories, so I consider that a better deal
here they're £2 for a single one lol
you can get 5 apples for £1.70
Ouch
Yeah an 8 pack of apples and a 4 pack of avocados are both around $4 here
Am I missing something is this post literally just shitting on people with dietary restrictions?
What do you mean scoop out idk what a scooped bagel is I was talking about the gluten free thing.
"Scooped out" is when you scoop out the bulk of the bread, presumably to fit more stuff in it without making it bigger. Very wasteful IMO
Can you explain to me, in detail, how exactly the bits from an “unscooped bagel” actually get to people who need food?
they don't scoop it and throw half of it away, thats it, don't waste food. Crazy I know right?
Like, where’s the problematic behavior? Who are they actually hurting (outside of possibly annoying the staff, but that’s a separate, labor issue, we obviously aren’t complaining about that bit even though we SHOULD be), by ordering their dumb bagel customization?
Don't waste food to be a bougie, thats really it.
Or are we just (more likely than not) getting jollies off of bullying someone because we’re so impotent we can’t get satisfaction in any form of political success?
speak for yourself, I organize IRL, don't project your situation on everyone else
That is dumb as shit and I retract my previous comment lol my bad.
I thought they like scooped the dough instead of rolling out out or something that's literally dumber than I could have imagined.
Also seems like it would make it impossible to eat as there's already way too much fucking cream cheese on most bagels.
That is wasteful. And If you want a thinner bagel, maybe just get bread?
If I'm serving you and you ask me to throw away some of your food for you before you get it, I would not serve you.
EDIT: The take in the OP is terrible and the hostility toward food allergies and dietary preferences is terrible. I don't support that at all. That said...
"Scooping" a bagel is wasteful and pompous bullshit. I know it happens, I see it happen, and I hate it.
If it became trendy to sell tiny apple spheres while throwing away the rest of the apple around it, I'd call that wasteful and pompous bullshit too.
Not interested in hypocritical sermons about how it's "moralistic, aesthetic hatemongering completely indistinguishable from reaction" reactions. Just try eating a damn bagel without throwing away most of the bagel, and if you refuse to do so and someone calls that practice wasteful, that's because it is wasteful. You'll survive the criticism, and it'd be even better if you learned from it.
No investigation
Investigate what? You not liking how it feels to be criticized?
You should be one of the first in line supporting me here: this is just being a treat defender but for bullying people.
I don't like the take featured in the OP at all, but scooping is silly. I respect dietary restrictions. I respect individual preferences that don't amount to just wasting food for convenience. With all of that said, I can and do call people out that waste food when I dine with them.
My whole point is that “wasting food” is a completely normal thing people do all the time.
Yes and it sucks.
I actively reduce my own food waste whenever I can. I am very aware that large industrialized processes eclipse the food waste that I am capable of. Telling people "you're being outclassed in waste, so feel free to roll coal and dump motor oil anywhere" is just asshole behavior, however small scale it is.
Then you are living unhealthily.
It is less wasteful than using an electronics device to post on Hexbear.
Just say
if you're that mad at my take. Being mad when I say "just try eating the whole bagel" to people I'm dining with that you will never meet is just absurdly inconsequential.WHAT??? These are entirely different things!
No, they are not, not when your justification for waste is "there are larger scale industrial processes that outclass the damage you can do, therefore do whatever damage you please. Also, even criticizing 'no veggies at dinner, no naptimes' attitudes is unhealthy" takes.
Scooped gluten-free bagel?
Did fucking /pol/ come up with something so horrifyingly antisemitic?
