Spice up your life with insane flaming hot Cheeto bagels
Food is ever changing, ever evolving, ever innovating. Food can be an art form or a science. Food is fascinating, beautiful and precious.
Food can also take the form of a Flaming Hot Cheeto Bagel.
The Bagel Nook, a bagel shop in New Jersey, is no stranger to unique specialty bagel creations. Owner Alex Berkowitz has been thinking up new ways to spice up the bagel experience for a while now.
The Bagel Nook is best known for the Oreo Overload Bagel. Other specialty bagels in their repertoire include the Fruity Pebble Bagel, Coco Puff Bagel and Cap'n Crunch Bagel.
Now they have added the Flaming Hot Cheeto Bagel and the Dorito Bagel to their insane menu.
"The idea of the Flaming Hot Cheeto Bagel was developed because most of our bagels are sweet," said Berkowitz. "We first started with a savory spinach garlic, then decided that was too common."
What resulted from that experiment was the Dorito Bagel. But that wasn't enough.
"We then needed to up the anti with savory and hot," Berkowitz continued. "So the Flaming Hot Cheeto with ghost pepper cream cheese was introduced."
Berkowitz understands that not everyone is able to handle the spiciness of these bagels with ghost pepper cream cheese. Other cream cheese pairing recommendations include ranch, jalapeño cheddar, bacon cheddar and bacon scallion.
Curious about whether people actually eat these bagels? Berkowitz says that his shop's specialty bagels sell out every single day.
If you are an adventurous soul who needs to try one of these bagels, you can either go to The Bagel Nook's physical store or order the bagels online through their website. They ship nationwide.
