This is getting old.

Americans ate an estimated 3 billion bagels at home last year, an average of about 11 per person (this doesn’t include bagels eaten at work, where a not-completely-insignificant number are delivered by bagel economist Paul Feldman). And in the course of slicing up all those bagels, 1,979 people cut their fingers so badly that they ended up in an emergency room. By the finger-cut-to-E.R. metric, that makes bagel-cutting the fifth most dangerous activity in the American kitchen. So it shouldn’t be surprising that an array of home gadgets have arrived on the scene to prevent bagel-related injuries.

Who are you, and what have you done with firstdown. Matty won't pay any ransom over so this is probably the wrong target.

Add one more to the total.


Got it wrapped REALLY tight with 2 wide bandaids. If it's still bleeding when I check it later tonight or maybe even tomorrow morning...I'm super gluing it shut.

Nice, you can get it at bed bath and beyond and I'm sure several other places.

Thats not really a paper cut since I assume you dont use sharp paper to cut your bagels.

Either way, that sucks man. Stop the bleeding.

Real men super glue themself back together. Surrated knife? I'm surprised I have never really cut myself cleaning fish because about 99% of the time I have been drinking. I use one knife to open the fish up and then the REALLY sharp knife when filleting the fish. It's so sharp it almost cuts you just looking at it.

No, it was a serrated knife.

Still hurts, but it's glued shut.

Cool, we just got a 20% off coupon in the mail for BBB yesterday. I didn't know what to use it on.
