Killer Bagels

Who would have thought that something as seemingly harmless as a bagel could lead to so many injuries? From cuts and burns to choking and dental issues, there are a surprising number of ways that a bagel can go wrong and send you to the hospital. So how can we enjoy our bagels without putting ourselves at risk of a BRI?

The key is to stay aware and practice good bagel safety. That means using a sharp knife to slice your bagel (not your hand!), letting it cool before taking a big bite, and chewing slowly and carefully to avoid choking. With a little bit of caution and common sense, we can all enjoy our bagels without ending up in the emergency room.
