A short video still featuring a woman with blonde hair and a text overlay that reads "Things I prefer in the US as a German" with American and German flag emojis, and further states "I don't know why we don't have bagels in Germany."

Above this, the social media post caption reads "I can think of a reason!" The post is from "Vikram Bath @vikrambath.bsky.social."

I would never consider a bagel as a roll. I'm not sure what I would call it except excellent. But it isn't a roll with a hole in the middle. I'm legitimately sorry if that has been your bagel experience.

Rolls are good, don't get me wrong, but there's a certain density to bagels that most rolls don't have any business trying to imitate.

It's just a different type of bread product entirely.

If people prefer rolls, that's cool. Eat what you like, but nobody should be going around saying that rolls are universally better than bagels. They're different, sometimes you feel like eating a while loaf of bread in one handheld package and bagels are there for you.

Don't judge me.
