Food BagelWatch 2012: Kettleman's Update

Posted by Alison Hallett on Tue, Jan 31, 2012 at 10:44 AM

According to the Portland Business Journal,

The Einstein Noah Restaurant Group on Monday said it will offer several kettle-style boiled bagel varieties at its Portland-area Einstein Bros. Bagels stores following its acquisition of Portland-based Kettleman Bagel Co.

The Denver-based restaurant chain in November announced that it had acquired the smaller, Portland upstart. In a news release Monday, the company said it would rebrand the five Kettleman locations as Einstein stores over the next five months

But as part of the transition, it is inviting Portland consumers to visit the company's Facebook page — Facebook.com/einsteinbros — through Feb. 13 to vote on their favorite flavor of boiled bagel. The company will announce the top flavors on Feb. 13, three of which will be added to the menu of Einstein's Portland locations.

But click on over to their Facebook page to find the survey, and it's completely buried in posts like this one:

I like good bagels too, but the foodie anguish on display in the comments over there is a tiny bit hilarious.
