2015 From Shannon Lightening the Load:
“The bagels are your average, hearty bagel, which is in a cinnamon raisin flavor. I find they’re not as sweet smelling as your “traditional” cinnamon raisin bagel, but they are tasty and satisfying all around. They have a little more of a whole wheat flavor to them, than your grocery store brand – but it’s not overwhelmingly noticeable. The bagels are speckled with raisins running throughout them, which when bitten/cut into they provide a juicy raisin. The cinnamon flavor is there, but it’s not overpowering on the senses. When popped into the toaster, they crisp up perfectly, while leaving the outside to be nice and crunchy while the inside gives off a little chewiness.
They’re great with a little butter on them, peanut butter or cream cheese, etc. Truthfully, I enjoy these bagels making a savory sandwich with them. Throw on a little ham and it’s a perfect combination of sweet and savory. Don’t knock it ’til you try it!
As I recommend with all of Trader Joe’s bagels, do store these in the refrigerator. Since there isn’t any preservative in the bagel, they tend to go bad fast and sometimes even before the date on the bag. I find storing in the refrigerator or even freezing and defrosting gives them a little longer of a shelf life.”
