Additional
Fun fact: Bagels originated from Jewish communities in Poland. Their hole in the center allows for multiple bagels to be threaded onto a dowel, making transportation, display, and selling much easier. This breakfast board is perfect for a special occasion, brunch gathering or even just a lazy weekend morning. Kids will have fun picking and choosing their own toppings!
