Pam,  I've never been to The Bronx so I don't know about schmear but I
doubt even schmear could make bagels edible.  Both of my boys like them but
I think they must be an aquired taste, one I never aquired.  I do LOVE
donuts though.  Ruth

PS:  Just what is schmear and why is it called THE Bronx instead of Bronx,
after all nobody says THE Manhattan?
