I congratulate Russians on somehow combining bagels and simit, and instead of making something doubly awesome, they made something that's shit at being both.

No sesame seeds AND you can't make a sandwich out of it? What's the fucking point?

Go to Moldova, they put sesame seeds on them. It's pretty fire. Not as fire as plăcintă, but pretty fire.

except that is a bagel in a different form. Bublik/baranka is a Ukranian/Russian bagel. Bagels/or grandaddy of bagels come from Poland

The earliest known references to obwarzanki being baked in Kraków, Poland's former royal capital, appear in the accounts of the court of King Vladislaus II Jagiełło and his consort, Queen Hedwig. An entry dated to 2 March 1394 mentions the product using both its Polish name and its equivalent in Polish Medieval Latin, circuli

The first known written mention of the bagel is found in the Community Regulations of the city of Kraków in 1610. The bagel spread through Poland across all areas with significant Jewish population, reaching Ukraine, where it got its current form. The word bublik was adopted from Ukrainian to Russian in which it is first documented in the 18th century. It is mentioned as "wheat bublik" (бублик пшеничнои) in the Lexicon or Alphabetic Collection of Speeches from Russian to Dutch by Jacob Bruce published in 1717 in Saint Petersburg.
