Bagel-cutting safety

Tell me that, at least, you didn't get any blood on your MC! You will heal, MC would have been irreparably stained.

I buy my Noah's bagels from Costco...two bags of 6 bagels each. At home I line up the 12 bagels and slice each using Scoop's method, i.e., bagel on its edge, hand over the top, slice down with my serrated deli knife. I've never cut myself doing this (however I have cut myself MANY times doing other chores)...my thinking is that when I'm doing the bagels I am totally focused so I have no slip-ups. When I've cut myself I've found that I was distracted.

Someone just gave me a bagel holder -- you supply the guillotine. Since we don't eat many carbs and since the few "bagels" I've tried in Toronto don't even reach the level of "bagel-ish", it's in my donate to Salvation Army box. I'd be happy to send it to you if you want it.

But now I'm craving a real NY bagel. Sob.
