All natural baked. Great for snacking. The only one with a hole! Over 30 years ago, Jim Burns and Gary Ricker, owners of The Village Cheese Shop in New York, baked-up a crispy idea to entice customers to sample their gourmet cheeses. They seasoned and baked genuine New York bagels to deliver an authentic crunchy bite. Soon, customers were asking to buy the savory bagel snacks more than the cheese and they knew they were on to something special! We still make authentic Bagel Crisps the same way, with premium ingredients, baked New York City-style, so they're crispy and delicious. They're the only ones with the characteristic hole of a bagel!
