Yes, everything I make is 100% gluten free. My daughter and I have celiac disease, the only treatment for which is a life of torment/abstention from gluten. And I prefer to think of myself as a trophy husband.

Let’s just say it makes the angels cry. Let’s further state that angels reaaaally hate crying and their tears are made of flaming acid that they somehow deposit straight into your guts. (I don’t really know how.) Anyway, this goes on for like a week and a half.

Sometimes? But not as often as you’d think. See, the REAL secret to keeping your gluten-free goods good is that they need to be reheated once they’re no longer fresh.

Wait, whoa, no. I am definitely NOT saying that. I’m not even sure how you got that from what…oh yeah, the reheating thing. Do NOT reheat your bagels in the microwave. Use a toaster. Or a cast iron pan. Or the grill, I bet that’d be good. Hell, use a series of candles and a steady hand if that’s the only other option. The microwave’s just gonna encrapify things like a low-rent brother-in-law.

I have, yes. I wish they weren’t. But gluten-free flour is stupid expensive, and I only use the awesomest ingredients for everything else.

This is one of those good news/bad news/but mostly good news situations. The bagels and muffins have dairy in them. HOWEVER, the flatbreads? Totally vegan. All of them. When Salty taketh away, he also feelseth incredibly guilty, so he works until he can giveth, too.

Why, I’m glad you asked! If you’re the type who prefers to have their carbs show up on their doorstep like a particularly great sacramental offering (pro tip: no one wants myrrh) AND you live in San Luis Obispo County, first of all we have a lot in common. SECOND, you can order delivery here. It’s available Fridays via my friends at Harvestly.org. (Just get your orders in by Wednesday night!) I make everything the same day it’s delivered.

Wait, have you—you’ve really never ordered from Harvestly? Seriously? Wow, OK. Huh. Picture your favorite vendors at our local SLO county farmers markets. There’s a good chance you can get their products delivered via harvestly—and for cheap, too. If you spend $50 or more from any combination of their vendors, delivery is free. Spend under $50 and it’s still only $5. They deliver every Friday to aaaaanywhere in SLO county, and now in Santa Maria, too.

Salty Bagel is at every single on of your favorite local farmers markets, provided those farmers markets are the downtown SLO Thursday night market, the Friday market in Cambria, and/or the Saturday afternoon market in Morro Bay. Look for the round man with the round products.

Friend, each and every order is special to me. But yes, I do even specialer orders, too. You can direct message me on Instagram or Facebook, or email info@saltybagelslo.com.

We do not. I still haven’t found a way to ship bagels such that they arrive in non-crapular condition.
