Not to be picky, but that's air going in, when you break the vacuum seal.

Well, that took the air out of her sails...

Surely that's the curse coming out?
Like in the Mummy's tomb?

I think it's because people think of a bagel as a unit and they don't want to purchase a bag of bagel halves. There were probably market studies done years ago when the practice started and this was the preferred option.

I think it's probably that the bagels are harder to package if you cut them all the way through.

I think having the faces of the two halves together keeps them fresher.

We could do an experiment.

Impossible to say since it is said to induce deafness.

Hey Bruce, that's why I keep coming back to the Cellar...so much to learn, so many misconceptions to be corrected.

Why oh why do they try to cram two weeks of work into the final day before a holiday weekend?

Lamplighter · 12-30-2010, 02:07 PM

Because the holiday vacation is only about a week long.

Long ago I realized that if I took a week's vacation, everything before and during was on my desk when I returned to work.
But if I took a 2-week vacation, others would pick up some/all of the work, and my desk was relatively clean when I returned.

(That's my free advice to young managers and supervisors for today)
