Bagel Price Gouging

How come a good bagel costs less than a bad one?
Thursday, October 27, 2005

In New York City, I can get a good bagel with cream cheese and lox for $1.95. In San Francisco, I pay $1.99 for a Noah’s bagel with “shmear,” and if I want smoked salmon spread (not lox, mind you), I pay $2.49. Bah!
