We're not so great at math, here at Delish. While we do enthusiastically makePi Day-themed pies every year, that's about the extent of our arithmetic prowess. However, when heard that you can use math to perfectly cut a bagel, we had to investigate.
According to Foodbeast, Professor George W. Hart at Stony Brook University used math to come up with the best-ever way to cut a bagel. Not only does it link the two sides of the bagel together for easier eating, but it also creates more surface area for cream cheese schmearing. Check out the below video to learn from a pro how to cut your bagel like a mathematician.
