Too much?

Cream cheese
Cream cheese

I ordered a bagel with cream cheese in Philadelphia. Apparently, I neglected to specify “lightly spread” vs. “the whole brick”.

    Around here they give you a sprinkle insteas of a schmear. The scary part to me is they still gave you butter too. Keep that up and your new address will be Heartattack & Vine.

    Umm… that ‘link of the day’ … that wouldn’t rate as kiddy porn, would it? The models appear younger than 18/21. And nekkid.

    Ah Dave, you forgot that old Pennsylvania saying:
    Never order cheese in Philadelphia, cherries in Pittsburg nor sushi in Altoona.

    GOOD GOD!

    Looks like you got the David Caruso Special - heavy on the cheese.

    Reminds me of “Bellisle’s”, if I remember that name right. Go to Disneyland in California, drive a block down Harbor blvd, and check out the place on the corner (I think it’s motto is “5 out of 4 eat here.”) Their thing is huge, ridiculous portions. Order a steak and get the whole cow, etc.

    They probably want you to ask for a doggy bag ….. take it home and do something “fun” with it …. :boob: :boob:

    That would be a good ‘poll question’.
    What to do with cream cheese on a boring thursday night.

    In Philly, the cream cheese eats you.

     
  16. Sher, 25, January 2007, 8:18 |  

    Maybe they thought you were kinda cheesy.

    I’m stunned someone else remembers Bellisles. Used to be on the corner. BIG food. Been gone for a few years.

     
  18. junkman, 25, January 2007, 8:32 |  

    are you sure it wasn’t lard?

     
  19. Bigwavdave, 25, January 2007, 8:58 |  

    Cheap bastards only gave you one “portion” for the entire bagel.

    True story:

    We stopped for coffee one morning at a local convenience store. My daughter ordered a bagel and cream cheese. No sooner were we back on the highway, when my daughter says “Mom.. there’s something wrong with the cream cheese”.

    I was at a turnaround exit, so we went back. The “bagel chef” nods when I show her this dripping white (eeeewwww) stuff on the bagel and says, in a thick hispqnic accent.. “we are out of”. OK. Ummmm? You are out of what? Huh?

    Another woman walks up and looks at the drippy bagel and questions her. Turns out, they were out of cream cheese, so the preparer just used sour cream instead.

    I mean.. whats the big deal, right? They are both white.

    My wife and I were at a 5-Star restaurant in Vegas, I ordered a Ceasar salad. They brought me an entire head of Romaine lettuce, with the end cut off, stuffed in a crouton bread ring with a side of dressing and tried to charge me $9.95 for it.

    Actually looks about right for both halves of the bagel.

    Just presented in a scary manner.

    Anyone who has a “Bruggers Bagels” will note that there is a full ice cream scoop of Cream Cheese per bagel. They just close it all up for you, and wrap it in paper.

    I also don’t understand the butter and cream cheese thing.

    One time, I was getting a bagel at a deli and heard the woman in front of me ask for butter and light cream cheese on her bagel. What’s the point? Doesn’t the butter cancel out the “light” part?

    Right. When I was a bartender eons ago, a lot of women would order a, “rum and diet Coke,” or a screwdriver (vodka + orange juice) in order to stay healthy. :wtf:

     
  25. sledge, 25, January 2007, 11:06 |  

    looks like a heart attack on a plate. Now if you could only deep fry that

     
  26. Sher, 25, January 2007, 12:09 |  

    Maybe they looked at you and thought……
    clothing to white ratio = creamcheese to bagel ratio.

    I prefer to have more than not enough.

     
  28. BryGuy, 25, January 2007, 13:35 |  

    it’s a pretty sorry lookin bagel to begin with. Was there hair in that brick of cream cheese?

     
  29. Tara, 25, January 2007, 13:39 |  

    Butter and cream cheese is like gravy on fries. Sometimes it’s like, “Enough already, with the fat!”

    Goes right along with the woman at McDonalds yesterday ordering a double quarter pounder, extra cheese, super sized fries and a diet coke.

     
  31. Atryd, 25, January 2007, 14:56 |  

    Exactly!! When consumers convert fat-free products into free fat!

    You have to try popcorn with nacho cheese & jalapenos!!

    You’ve obviously never tried poutine, a French-Canadian dish of fries, cheese curds and a WHOLE LOT OF GRAVY.

    That bagel looks like it came from Tim Horton’s.

    I thought I was the only who remebered that place. BWD and PP definitely have it right about the portion size.

    Would you like some bagel to go with your cream cheese?

    Whenever I’m in Manhattan, I have to remember to specify “light schmear…light cream cheese.” If I could order it with a screwdriver (no-carb oj with an extra shot of vodka), I’d be all set for the day.

    Spud! Wouldn’t you want to wait until summer when I’m wearing less? :thong:

     
  48. Spud, 26, January 2007, 19:32 |  

    Yes, you’re right, less is more, it’s just that it’s summer here in the antipodes and I kinda forgot about it being winter up there, although I’m sure being creative on a bearskin rug in front of a roaring fire would be in all likelihood inappropriate…

    I think I’d have to be drunk again to do that.
