What does 🥯 Bagel mean?
A sliced bagel with a glossy crust. It is synonymous with New York delis, breakfast on the go and a generous schmear of cream cheese, perhaps with lox, everything seasoning or egg on top. People use it for brunch plans, bakery recommendations and coffee runs. The doughnut 🍩 shares the ring shape, but this one is savory and chewy.
🥯 Bagel is an emoji from the Food & Drink category (prepared foods), added in Emoji 11.0 in 2018. People use it in messages about bakery, bread, breakfast and schmear.
