Which do you love more: bagels, or English muffins? Advice on which is a healthier bet for breakfast ...
The winner? English muffins. (And, I'm talking about whole-wheat English muffins, gals). While neither are going to send you to hell in a handbasket, the English muffin, or humble crumpet (why does that word always make me want to giggle?) is usually a better choice. Here's why:
*Bagel size has gotten out of control in recent years--most nutritionists say that often the "standard" bagel is the size of two bagels from 10 years ago.
*Bagels pack more carbs, and often more sugar (while not a huge deal, the calories and sugars stack up if you're trying to lose weight).
