I wonder what the percentage is of drivers, especially those Uber, Lyft and Via folks whose are always trying to figure where they are on their phones-GPS's?
I'm mystified that Eater didn't include Black Seed in their Bagel roll-up. Sure, they're hipster bagels, I guess, and god knows we all miss DeRobertis, but they're easily on par with Tompkins Square Bagels (and that's saying a lot).
It's too bad Fenty isn't one of those dealers who dips into their own stash. Selling people fentanyl as heroin is beyond a dick move.
I agree with 2:01 that Black Seed's bagels should be on the list. I don't know what "hipster" means in this context, but they are cooked in wood-burning oven, Montreal style, and are my go-to bagel.
