[WATCH] Detailing the Differences Between New York City and Montreal Bagels

So apparently, there is this small town somewhere int he middle of Canada called "Montreal" or something that thinks they have a bagel that can compete with our New York City bagels. How cute. In this video from our friends at Great Big Story, learn all about this one-sided rivalry.

There’s no food as synonymous with New York as the bagel—soft, chewy, doughy, with a generous schmear. But one city is giving the Empire State a run for its money. Welcome to Montreal, Canada, where the bagels are a little crispier, a little sweeter, but no less iconic. Still, the question stands: which bagel reigns supreme? We hit up New York’s legendary H&H Midtown East and Montreal’s famous St-Viateur to get to the bottom of the battle of the bagels.
