Bagel Bonanza

Move over sourdough and ciabatta, the hottest bread item right now is the bagel! It's even outselling the classic plain roll. Laura Stott took on the challenge of trying out a variety of supermarket bagels to see which ones were a cut above the rest. Here are the results…

New York Bakery Co Wholemeal Bagels – £1.90, Asda

Rated: ★★★★☆

Get ready for big, fluffy, and satisfying bagels that won't leave you hungry. With a thick and delicious wholemeal treat, these bagels are perfect for toasting and topping with your favorite spreads.

Warburton’s Sesame Bagels – £1.50, Sainsbury’s/Tesco

Rated: ★★☆☆☆

Conveniently pre-sliced, these sesame bagels are a time-saver, but the taste may leave you wanting more. While they are dense and chewy, they lack the traditional bagel flavor and come with a higher price tag.

Tesco Original Bagels – 80p, Tesco

Rated: ★★★★★

Surprisingly delicious and authentic, these Tesco bagels are a steal at 80p. Perfect for any topping or enjoyed on their own, these bagels are a real winner in terms of taste and value.

M&S Multigrain Bagels – £2.50, M&S

Rated: ★★★☆☆

With a unique blend of grains for added texture and nutrition, these M&S bagels are a tasty snack. However, uneven slicing may make toasting a bit tricky, and the higher price point may not be worth it for everyone.

Rowan Hill Bakery Plain Bagels – 79p, Lidl

Rated: ★★★★☆

Great value and quality come together in these bagels from Lidl. With a golden outer crust and chewy dough inside, these bagels are perfect for toasting and enjoying with your favorite toppings.

Village Bakery Original Bagels – 79p, Aldi

Rated: ★★★☆☆

While claiming to be New York-style, these Aldi bagels lean more towards a sweet brioche flavor. Despite the deviation, they still offer a satisfying snack when toasted and topped with your favorite ingredients.

Sainsbury’s Plain Bagels – 79p, Sainsbury’s

Rated: ★★★★☆

Offering excellent value, these Sainsbury’s bagels give you bang for your buck. Although slightly varied in size, they deliver a chewy and squidgy texture that won't disappoint, especially at such a great price.

Morrisons Plain Bagels – 95p, Morrisons

Rated: ★★★☆☆

With an artisanal appearance and sweet flavor, these Morrisons bagels are a good choice for a tasty treat. Best enjoyed toasted with a savory filling to balance out the sweetness.
