New Jersey’s Most Epic Bagels that You Must Try at Least Once

I asked Jersey Facebook foodies to name their favorite bagel spot.

Now it's time to shine the spotlight on these doughy delights and reveal the best of the best.

When I asked where to find the best bagel on social media, a few wise guys and girls answered, "New York."

I'm not going to completely disagree.

Luckily, the New York way of bagel-making is alive and well in Jersey. It's all about the water, right?

What are the most popular bagel flavors?

GrubHub did some asking around, and these are your top five.

1. Blueberry (#1?! Are you kidding me? How is blueberry ahead of Everything?)
2. Cinnamon raisin (Good call here. Pro tip: Toast a cinnamon raisin bagel, put some peanut butter on both sides and enjoy as the peanut butter melts. Yum.
3. Everything (This should be higher on the list, and quite possibly #1. This is such a popular bagel that Trader Joe's sells just the everything seasoning.)
4. Asiago (Not a bad bagel, but top 5, nope.)
5. Rainbow (Give me a break.)

Where is my favorite? Egg.

There's no better bagel for a pork roll, egg, and cheese sandwich than an egg bagel. Add a little ketchup, and dig in.

If you check out the list and your favorite bagel joint didn't make the cut, it's nothing personal.

In fact, please let me know so I can give them a shot.
