With thanks to [livejournal.com profile] omphale23, this is the best way to spend an evening ever. I'm learning so much! And laughing so hard!

One of the nominees for The Seven Wonders of Canada? The Montreal Bagel.

Resilient and chewy on the outside, soft and soulful on the inside… not unlike the Montrealers who nominated it, the Montreal bagel stands for something. What that something is - we’re not exactly sure… but the bagel definitely goes down well with a nice thick dollop of cream cheese. Mmmmmm. Cream cheese. Whether you go with the Fairmount or the St. Viateur bagel – you really can’t go wrong.

Mmmmmmm. Cream cheese.

*dying*

Seriously. Busting a lung here. I fucking love Canada.

you know, whenever anyone goes nuts about the bagels here, they always fail to mention the best thing about them : the price/hours of availability ratio. Cheapest 24-hour source of starch EVER.

Also, mmmmmmmm, cream cheese.

(you can order them online now, too!)

Heeee! Are they really that amazing? I mean...really? I'm so curious now! About the bagels. Maybe I need to get out more.

You just *know* Paul Gross is up in Toronto throwing a tantrum. "What do you MEAN, they picked bagels over me? And what about canoes? You can't tell me I'm not more interesting than a fucking canoe!"

Well, you know, "Paul Gross In A Canoe" might have worked.

I can't figure out how they picked bagels and canoes over the Peace Tower. wtf? At least they stuck the Cabot Trail in there or I might have had to get all American on their arses.

OMFG, I KNOW. I can hear him, still! They picked BAGELS! OVER HIM. Clearly, SOMEBODY up there has a beef with this man!

My favourite thing is that they felt they were putting out too positive a view of Canada and so ran a competition to find the Worst Canadian. Seriously. ♥ that place.

Do not laugh. There's a place here that FLIES IN St. Viateur bagels and they do a brisk business. There is NOTHING LIKE the Montréal bagel on the planet. Your pathetic, puffy, bland New York bagels do not compare. ONE DAY THE WHOLE WORLD WILL KNOW. :)

o.O

Seriously? I am SO curious now! BAGELS. BAGELS, dude! I just. You know?

Not sure if they ship to the States or not, but it's worth a try!
