People keep their bagels in the fridge?

    My wife still tries to if I let her put away groceries, and admittedly they to get moldy fast sometimes. Heating them does undo some of the staleness, though I'd prefer to just eat them all asap after purchase.

    She should just put them in the freezer if she doesn’t want to eat them the same day. In the fridge they become stale because starches crystallize and the moisture evaporates. But in the freezer the moisture freezes and gets trapped inside. Then just toss them in the oven or in a toaster and the bagels taste like almost the same as fresh bagels, at least a whole lot better then fridge bagels.

    I agree, although I never quite know how to toast them without waiting to thaw. That, and I get the kind that aren't precut so I imagine I need to thaw before cut, or cut before freeze, etc.
