You’ll never guess how much this New York City bagel costs

NEW YORK CITY — I’ll have an everything bagel with gold flakes on top, please.

This wouldn’t be your typical breakfast order but at the Westin New York hotel in Times Square, bagels aren’t just regular bagels – they come with a price tag that will make your jaw drop.

The hotel has announced that it¹s bringing back its US$1,000 bagel next month for a limited time after it first appeared in 2007. WNBC-TV reports the bagel will feature Alba white truffle cream cheese, goji berry-infused Riesling jelly and golden leaf flakes.

According to the hotel, white truffle is the second most expensive food in the world after caviar.

Though almost laughably extravagant, all that money is being put to good use; 100% of the proceeds will go to Holy Apostle Soup Kitchen.

The $1,000 bagel will be offered from Nov. 1 through Dec. 15 and must be ordered 24 hours in advance.
