Odd Bagel Gluten Free Vegan Plain Bagels (4 Bagels per Pack)

I don't understand all the negative reviews - maybe they don't know good bagels? Before going gluten-free I ate more than my fair share of bagels, including on the streets of NY *and* Montreal (and Oakland too!), and I have to say, this is one of the best tasting "plain bagels" I've ever purchased in a grocery store — I can't wait to try the other flavors. Odd Bagels are far better than anything made by folks on farms on ridges overlooking peppers, far better than anything made by anybody named Thomas or Sara Lee (those aren't bagels they're round bread with holes) — but these actually taste like bagels that were cooked properly, which is to say boiled and baked!I found these gluten-free plain bagels at Berkeley Bowl West and picked them up for a brunch we were hosting. I couldn't believe how well they replicated a decent bagel without any wheat or egg. For the first time in the year since I went gluten-free, I was able to enjoy a proper bagel lox and cream cheese sandwich.Don't get me wrong, if you're expecting a fresh NY bagel, you'll probably be disappointed, but for something that is vegan and gluten-free and purchased at a grocery store (or online), once they're toasted up, these are astonishingly delicious bagels.

Can't eat it raw it's too gummy - the plastic bag also sweats even when put in the refrigerator which ruined the dried onions flakes on the surface. Tastes better when toasted. It is very chewy untoasted... Hard to cut too - need to be careful when slicing. They should have made the bagel pre-sliced.
