Breakfast! What do you like?

Ya gotta realize bagels are Yankee food! For us Southerners, eating a bagel is like trying to eat a deflated football!!
Cheesy grits, soft scrambled eggs with picante. breakfast sausage or bacon, toast made from real bread! Homemade jelly, maybe fig or plum.

A Yankee refers to the baseball team in NYC
As far as I'm concerned the term Yankees means New Englanders
Bagels outside of NYC and surrounding area usually are imitations of the real thing
Bagel makers guard their recipes but it has to do with the water, we have some of the best drinking water in the country which contributes to great Italian bread, rolls and bagels
I will say I had some great tasting local baked bread in Denver, again its the water
