Default If your bagel ain't burnt

then it's not toasted properly............... At least that's what I was told when I complained about the rather overtoasted offering that Tim's provided earlier today. According to the customer service challenged young lady she could show me a picture from Tim's HQ that dictates bagels must be burnt when toasted!!! That's Canadian customer service for you

If you're stupid enough to enter a Tim Horton's, you deserve anything you get.

I know. I did it once.

Do you want a link?

Just because you ended up with "yellow matter custard dripping from a..." on your sandwich once is no reason to be bitter.

Must admit though that if it aint burned it aint done proper is new one on me.

"If your bagel ain't burnt"

Wasn't that one of those Bessie Smith or Lady Day songs that's all innuendo? A cry warning of the failings of miscegenation.

"if your bagel aint burnt, you aint gonna make your momma cry"

I may have had the 78, I always liked songs of the yiddo-delta.

every time I order a toasted cheddar cheese bagel I open it hoping to see a non burnt one - call it a little game of expectation.

One you have just ruined.

If it wasn't burnt you might be able to taste the bagel. Be grateful.

That's it. I'm glad I made an impression.

But still, endless numbers of Canadian fools and starry eyed immigrants persist in patronizing this travesty of a "coffee" shop.
