one time I was eating a lox bagel at the airport terminal and a guy near me started freaking out and yelling into the phone that \u201cthis kid is eating FISH on a BAGEL can you BELIEVE IT?!\u201d sir this is the traditional way to eat a bagel in America; get with the program

\n\n\n

More proof that america is an elaborate hoax

\n

\n\n#i. actually do not believe you\n\n

wait which part? that bagels with lox is traditional (it\u2019s Yiddish) or that some Americans have never heard of it and think it\u2019s a really bizarre new way to eat a bagel?

\n

I\u2019m canadian, and bagels with smoked salmon and cream cheese are a CLASSIC!! i\u2019ve never been to a bagel shop or brunch place that didn\u2019t serve this delicious meal.\u00a0

Yeah, like NYC, Montreal was a significant gateway to the continent, drew a founding Jewish immigrant population around merchant shipping, and went on to develop a strong Jewish food tradition - the Montreal bagel is a distinct thing, and Montreal steak seasoning comes from deli pickling spices.
