The temptation on new York bagels

Im dyinggggg for my weekly bagel that I haven't had in a month. I live in new York with the best bagel store 3 minutes away from me. They make the most delicious whole wheat everything bagels and honestly, they are the only thing I'm having a hard time with. Hypothetically speaking would it be terrible to have one once in a blue moon? Nothing on it... I mean it's high carb and vegan lololol

Yes, David. KNIVES. :-D

"Grains are quite addicting. If you find yourself caving, eat baked potatoes or millet. Would be better."

Except that millet is a grain.

(There are people who say that quinoa and millet and amaranth are seeds, not grains. Grains are grass seeds. Millet is a grain. Millet is also a seed. But it is a grain.)

I would continue to eat the occasional bagel instead of constantly thinking of having one. Don't get too hung up about it as it could continue to play on your mind. A whole wheat bagel is not such a bad choice. Just keep on enjoying your fruits and veggies. You will establish new favourites over time.

Grains are quite addicting. If you find yourself caving, eat baked potatoes or millet. Would be better.

Comment by beezo on July 19, 2012 at 10:45am: I didn't eat a bagel but I did just have whole wheat pasta. Well see what happens

Comment by Alysha Maiorelli on July 19, 2012 at 10:41am: God, I feel your pain. There is nothing better than an everything bagel with vegan cream cheese. I haven't had one in a good 3-4 years but I still remember how every delicious morsal tastes....as a fellow New Yorker the onslaught of bageldom is hard to resist. Personally, I wouldn't do it bc for me I would be pay for it for probably a month, but that's just me. What bagel store btw?? Lol

Comment by Peter Csere on July 19, 2012 at 7:13am: As for the bagel... do you like feeling like there are knives stabbing you in the stomach (my experience whenever eating cooked food after a long period of 100% raw)
