Try Something New – Thomas’ Corn Bagels is a post I have been meaning to write for a number of months now. This past January I was shopping at a local grocery store and noticed that they had Thomas’ Bagels on sale B1G1. I gave a quick look for the flavors, and was ready to move on when the corn flavor caught my eye. It was “different” and so therefor intrigued me. I purchase a blueberry (which are still in the freezer), and a corn variety during that sale.
I swear I ate a corn bagel every day for six days until they were gone! Since I seldom eat breakfast, that will tell you something.
Thomas’ corn bagels are sweet. And this appeals to me. They do taste a tad like sweet corn, but nothing overpowering. They also smell good when toasting. They are a bit heavy in the stomach, and I am sure I could solve that problem by only eating half a bagel, but these are so good I don’t want to only eat half!
Each bagel has 280 calories, 9 total grams of sugar, 1 gram saturated fat, and 10 grams of protein.
When I decided to write about how much I enjoyed these bagels, I looked at the Thomas’ product page for more details. These bagels aren’t even listed!
Here’s a picture of the bag I finished this week. These do exist! I asked on the Thomas’ facebook page for info on where they are available. Facebook was glitchy that day (shocker, I know) and I received the response of “in the northeast and…”
And where?
I asked Sonny-boy to retrieve the response on facebook for me, and he was baffled by what happened. Neither of us could read it, even though I had “liked” Thomas’. So, if you are interested in trying the Thomas’ Corn Bagels you don’t live in the northeast, ask on the Thomas’ facebook wall where they are sold. The response I got from emailing them was to see the product and locator page. Ummm yeah. Check your page people. That information isn’t there! This is a case where facebook is the best way to contact the company.
To recap: sweet, flavorful and delicious, although a bit heavy. Definitely worth a try!
Have you tried Thomas’ Corn Bagels? What did you think?

That sounds rather interesting. Love my bagels, but have never heard of a corn bagel before. If I see them somewhere reasonably priced, I will be trying them.

Yeah I hadn’t either, and I am not a really big fan of packaged bagels, but these were pretty darned good!

They are delish!…. but need much more favor but do have a sweetness & although at times Thomas has bagels “limited edition” that I can not figure why…. but I do prefer pre packaged bagels that last longer without becoming rock hard.
Candee says
Skirnir, they are made by Thomas Bagels…Check out the phone number to call Bimbo Bakeries and then follow the directions in the comment; just a few comments down…I guarantee if you like fresh, hot cornbread, you will love these and they don’t crumble…! :)Microwave 30 seconds…
Candee says
They are gone from Dallas, Texas…!Breaks my heart…I turned a lot of people on to them; ALL LOVED THEM…Wish I knew where to buy them…I would even pay for shipping…!
Ann says
Candee call Bimbo bakeries: 1-800-984-0989. Be VERY explicit that they used to be in your area, but you can no longer find them and ask when they are coming back.

OMG!! I was amazed at this post because I felt like I was the one writing it!! The ENTIRE post is TRUE from the beginning to the end!! I saw them in Walmart one day, bought a gag, ate them in a week, went back and bought two more bags (because my kids feel in love with them too), return to purchase 2 weeks later and they were gone. I was traumatized. I too wrote Thomas and they told me the same thing,”they’re on the north coast at the time and to watch the webpage”. All I can do is hope and pray they return. An EXCELLENT product. In the meantime Pilsbury has a Corn Grand Biscuit that is equally delicious!! I prefer them over a flour biscuit any day of the week. They are naturally sweet and no butter or jelly is needed. Try them!!

I’ve always brought the onion flavored or everything bagels, but once I tried the corn flavored bagels that’s all I ever want to buy… Their soo hard to find and I have all my friends and family wanting them as well.. Honestly hands down the best flavored bagel ever…..
Ann says
I agree, Angela!

I am glad I live in the northeast. I get Thomas’s corn bagels all the time. They are the best.

We love them at our house but we keep having to drive to different cities just to find them. The stores are always out of them. I live on the MA\NH border. This is a product locator if anyone is interested.

I have fallen in love with your corn bagels BUT I haven’t been able to find them for months. I’m located in Ct. I have asked the manager in my grocery store about them and they tell me that the Thomas’ bagel guy hasn’t been delivering them. Please get some corn bagels to Ct.–SW Ct.
Thanks in advance
