    I remember approx 16 years ago I walked passed them in a supermarket and cursed them....

    'bloody american food'

    I remember saying....

    then a few days ago I tried em

    Bagels!!!!!

    OH MY GOD

    what a food!!!!

    I have had them for the last three days, toasted with ham, toasted with cream cheese, with corned beef, I even tried one untoasted. (couldn't be arsed to wait for the toaster...wasn't as nice)

    What a waste of my life, why didn't I try these before now?

    I even have 5 cinnamon and raisen bagels waiting for breakfast (I am not going to eat all five BTW)

    I can't wait for breakfast

    So

    What have you guys waited too long for before trying?

    Lmfao! Bagels are the sh*t!!! For breakfast or for a sandwhich for lunch. Yummooo..try a flavored kind.

    I'm a picky eater.

    I waited yrs to try everything...clementines, pomegranate seeds ...those two I've been eating for months mmm.

    Also specific beans. I'm loving chilli and all the different beans in it. Which before I refused to try it.

    Food <3

    Lol Darren, this is awesome!! Good for you!
    Bagels ARE the best- I just had one this morning at Panera, it was chocolate chip but I was also tempted by the pumpkin pie ones....

    they're crazy good!
    I had always hated the idea of coleslaw when my mom made it and if it came with a meal, but I had sweet coleslaw for the first time a few weeks ago and was surprised- in a good way :)

    Darren,
    Here's the bad news: you have discovered bagels at the very time when your body is about to decide to notch down your metabolism. Yep, all that bread ain't going nowhere no-time soon.

    I used to be a picky eater. Now I love food and will eat tons of stuff, but for a long time, basically all my food was white. White bread, mashed potatoes (no gravy), spaghetti (no sauce), crackers, milk, etc. I didn't even like pizza. And then when I did decide to like pizza, I only ate cheese pizza for the longest time. I still like a good cheese pizza every once in a while...

    But anyway. Now I'll eat whatever. Food is great. Something I did put off for a long time was guacamole and avocados. To be fair, it does look pretty freaky. But now I'm like "HOW DID I LIVE FOR SO LONG WITHOUT YOUUU?" All those sad years. I'm trying to get my fellow to try some avocado. He has the dietary desires of a four year old. (I got him a giant bag of candy for Christmas...)

    I'm glad you've discovered bagels. There's a bread shop / cafe around here called Panera, and they have great "cinnamon crunch" bagels. I'm also a fan of a cheese bagel... or just a plain toasted bagel with butter, peanut butter, and banana slices.

    After thinking long and hard about Larrys comment, I feel the best form of action is to start buying bigger trousers.....
