bagel all the way. foodie part I

Okay. so being from New York, especially the tri state area near the city, i have a love for something that no other human being that lives outside of this area could ever love. New York dough. and no, im talking cash money, im talking real dough. bagels. BAM. theyre incfredible here. my personal fave is an everything bagel topped wth cream cheese, lox, capers, lemon, red onion and sometimes a few slices of cucumbers.

and this is where it gets tough.
The Ugly Truth:

a good delious tangy new york bagel has the same bread intake of 4-6 slices of white bread. thats 80 grams of carbs. so whats my solution? well every sunday morning, i wake up, regardless of a wild night before, i wake up, go to the gym, work out with my father for 45 minutes and then we pick up bagels to bring home for breakfast. beause i dont wanna cancel out the progress i made that day, before i throw that fantastic freshmade everything bagel in the toaster, i cut it inhalf and pull out the insides of the bagel. why? because all the flavor is in the "skin". the middle is just unwanted bread.

plus the newly made trenches in the bread make great places for storing things like creamcheese, capers, lemon, lox red onion and sometimes cucumber. because think about it, how many times have you put something on a bagel, went to go taken a bite and the delcious morsel that was just on your skyscraper bagel is now either on the plate or table, in your lap, on the floor or even in your dogs stomach. the crevices are more than calorie reducers, theyre convenience enthusiasts.

not in a creamcheese, capers, lemon, lox red onion and sometimes cucumber mood?

try tunafish or lobster salad! and not that bumblebee crap. yeah its cheap, its just really unhealthy. its loaded with mercury and theres practically no omega 3 in it. plus when you squeeze out the juice to begin your culinary adventures with this sawdust,  youre squeezing out 30% of what you bought.

Now check out this pretty penny.

the amount of omega 3's are through the roof (1384 mg/ can!), when you use this product, you use the whole can (including the juice) and use little to no mayo (calorie savor!!!!!!) because its just that good without mayo. plus it rocks in a tunamelt on whole wheat bread with swiss cheese on the george foreman. The tuna is cvaught using on line/fisherman so its not those crazy big nets that the bigger companies use, all the boats are american (USA! ALL THE WAY!). all in all the product is much better. Yes, it is a little more expenisve but when you squeeze out the juice from the bumble bee can, youre wasting money. no money is wasted in Wild Planet. The quality and long term benefits of the tuna is well worth its price.
