Everyone who knows me knows that I’m not a breakfast person. Even though it’s not my favorite meal of the day, my go-to dish has always been an extra crispy bagel. Whether you opt for a savory bite like an everything bagel smothered in cream cheese, a towering breakfast sandwich, or a seasonal version flavored with pumpkin spice, you truly can’t go wrong with a bagel, in my opinion.
When I lived in New Jersey, my family would visit a local bagel shop to get our bagels, but these days, the grocery store is my main supplier. My weekly shopping list always includes my favorite flavor (a classic everything bagel), yet I’m always excited to try something new. Trends like last year’s viral chopped bagel or Thomas’ high-protein bagels will most definitely find their way onto my plate.
Now, Thomas’ is bringing my favorite breakfast food to the snack aisle, and I’m counting down the days.
Thomas’ Bagels Is Releasing New Bagel Chips
Bagels aren’t just for breakfast anymore, thanks to an exciting new partnership between Thomas’ and CaliBagels Inc. The two companies are teaming up to release bagel chips, in a tasty move to expand the popular breakfast brand’s reach. The lineup will include the most loved bagel flavors in a crispy bite-sized snack, and I’m salivating at the thought.
Philip Gorman, the CEO of CaliBagels, expressed his enthusiasm over the upcoming launch, sharing, “We’re excited to lead the way with a chip that starts with real bagel flavors and delivers the authentic Thomas’ experience in every bite.”
If you’re looking for inspiration on how to enjoy bagel chips (aside from devouring them straight from the package), there are endless ways to do so. Serve them up with a savory or sweet dip—perfect for gameday hosting. Or add a few to your lunch if you find yourself wanting something on the side of your salad. You can even use them to elevate your fancy charcuterie boards during the holiday season.
Although an official release date has not been announced, the new products are reportedly set to join the snack aisle in 2026. The chips will be sold nationwide at select grocery and retail locations. And while I wait for these to hit shelves, I may just have to try my hand at making bagel chips myself. I already have the perfect dip in mind to pair them with.
