TABASCO Brand x PopUp Bagels Collab

What are you doing to me? Adding some heat to your favorite bagel because Tabasco brand is teaming up with Pop-Up Bagels for a collab, putting a little spicy twist on the breakfast favorite that we wanted to put to the test. So our friends at Pop-Up Bagels sent us some delicious bagels in first locations in Bethesda, in Maryland, in Georgetown, in D.C. And as of, I believe, next week in Boston, in Arlington, in Virginia. Oh, really? They're expanding. I'll grab one of the other things. Okay, I'll get one of those. D.C., Arlington, and Virginia. Oh, they're warm. Yes. So you know about the bagels, at least you do now. Their slogan is, not famous but known, now you know. But what we don't know is how it actually pairs with the Tabasco mac and cheese schmear, which is supposed to be multiple cheeses to take you back to your childhood with a little bit of heat. And Julie, you're the green cheese lover here, so let us know what you think. Is it as spicy as they say? Not too spicy. The whole deal with the pop-up bagels is they're not sliced, they're warm, you rip them, and you dip them. I like it. We're going to not dip. We're going to delicately use the knife. But I love cream cheese. Now I taste the spice. That is hot. See, I don't think it sounds spicy. But, Mikiya, you don't like spicy. Do you need a napkin, honey? I'm okay. Okay. There you go. But the bagel is delicious, first off. Yeah. And so creative in the different mixes that they come up with. Colleen's coming up with new mixes as well. So this is definitely a twist. How spicy is it for you? I'm not getting the spices much. Actually, yeah, that was it. I got the cheese at first. Now, when I say as much, there's definitely a layer of heat in there that you're going to get, which is really nice. Here's what I like to think about, Julie. Let's speak a language we understand. A spicy margarita, right? It's not going to blow you away with the heat, but it's going to add that layer of heat to the beverage. That's what I'm getting out of this. I like that that's how you were trying to relate to me. I was, Julie, because I knew you were totally going to say what I was talking about. I do love language. I do love a spicy marg, Steve knows that. But you know what? Like, the Tabasco, though, a lot of times for a hot sauce sometimes is too hot for me because it's very overpowering. But I don't feel like this is overpowering the cream cheese. You know, I don't like it too hot. And this is bearable. Yeah. I'm actually enjoying this a lot. If the Kia Saint is bearable, then there we go. Yeah. Thanks to our friends at Papa Bagels. Thank you, guys. There's your info for Papa Bagels also in Tabasco and the collab and all that great information. And, again, locations in Bethesda, Georgetown, and soon to be in Arlington. All right. Love it. Well, coming up fresh at 10 a.m. this morning. Come on, Zach. Wait, where's my bagels? Get you a whole box for it.
