Not usually. They have an awful lot of sugar caked on the top and it makes my teeth hurt. They are fabulous with hazelnut cream cheese.

I usually get an asiago cheese bagel or a french toast bagel. Toasted with butter.


I don't get it very often, in fact I haven't had one in at least 6 months. But I don't put cream cheese on it and I take a bit of the "crunch" off. I love those things despite the fat content! Shocked Lightly toasted so it's warm. YUM!

I'm a Panera addict. The employees remember my name and miss me when I'm gone.

Same with me and the coffee shop. This morning my latte was ready as I walked up to the cashier. Shocked They saw me pull into the parking lot!

I go to Starbucks maybe once every 2 weeks. Eleven Cents is not really going to affect my spending habits at the evil empire.

As for the addicted ones that go every day for a "tall amazing grande frappe latte macchiato al dente" well, its your money. I really can think of better things to do with $ 20 - $ 25 Dollars a week.

Me, not too much. I go maybe once or twice a month. My SIL, however, goes at least twice a day. So I'm sure my brother is not happy about this news.
