Bruegger's Bagels' Summer Menu Line-Up is Hot, Cool and Sweet

Innovative new items include Sriracha Egg Sandwich, Morning Glory Bagel and new salads.

2013-05-08

BURLINGTON, VT, May 08, 2013 (Press-News.org) Today, Bruegger's Bagels, known for its authentic, New York-style bagels baked fresh in each of its bakeries, introduces a new summer menu unlike any others before with new flavors that are at once bold, spicy, sweet and savory.

Executive Chef Philip Smith added completely new flavors and ingredients to the menu this season, reflecting the bagel bakery's commitment to menu items that are flavorful and on trend while staying true to what keeps guests coming back every day.

The innovative menu items - available today in all 300-plus bagel bakeries - include:

- The Sriracha Egg Sandwich is Bruegger's Bagels' first new egg sandwich featuring Sriracha sauce, the versatile and addictive sweet, hot chili sauce named the "coolest condiment on the table" by The Huffington Post. The spicy new sandwich is available all day and is made on a plain bagel (or the guest's choice of any of Bruegger's 15+ varieties of authentic New York-style bagels) with egg, sausage, cheddar cheese, fresh red peppers and perfectly finished with a kick of Sriracha sauce. The unique taste of the Vietnamese-inspired sauce, which is a combination of red chilies, vinegar and sugar, is also available upon request on other Bruegger's Bagels menu items.

- The bakery is also mixing up its bagel varieties with the unique Morning Glory Bagel, a wonderful burst of sweet flavors. Great for breakfast or an afternoon treat, the newest bagel flavor is sheer indulgence, with apple butter folded into the simple bagel dough, along with shredded carrots, raisins, sunflower seeds and cinnamon. For a taste evocative of a traditional Morning Glory muffin, Chef Smith suggests topping this bagel with Bruegger's Bagel's plain cream cheese. But many of the bakery's cream cheese flavors - all 100 percent made-in-Vermont - complement the bagel with its combination of fruit and flavor.

- Two all-new salads and complementary dressings round out Bruegger's Bagels new lunch line-up. The Blue Apple Salad, made on a bed of spring lettuce, is served with Bruegger's Bagels new Champagne Vinaigrette dressing, which complements the sweet combination of chicken, dried cranberries, sliced almonds and diced apples, topped with blue cheese crumbles. Guests who want something more savory can choose the Chicken Almond Salad, tossed with diced chicken, almonds, cucumber, Asiago cheese and chopped red bell pepper, a new addition to the bakery chain's list of fresh ingredients. The salad will be topped with a new Tangy Olive Oil dressing made with olive oil, feta cheese and red wine.

The limited-time offerings are available through Sept. 10.

New class of drug targets skin cancer

2013-05-07

7 May, 2013 -- Sydney, Australia: A new class of drug targeting skin cancer's genetic material has been successfully tested in humans for the first time, opening the way to new treatments for a range of conditions from skin cancers to eye diseases. The research involves the drug Dz13, a targeted molecular therapy, which was developed at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and has now been found to be safe in a clinical trial of patients with the common skin cancer, basal-cell carcinoma. "This is the first report of a drug of this type to be used in humans," ...

New perspective needed for role of major Alzheimer's gene

2013-05-07

Scientists' picture of how a gene strongly linked to Alzheimer's disease harms the brain may have to be revised, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have found. People with harmful forms of the APOE gene have up to 12 times the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease compared with those who have other variations of the gene. Many researchers believe that the memory loss and cognitive problems of Alzheimer's result from the buildup over many years of brain amyloid plaques. The plaques are made mostly of a sticky substance called amyloid ...

A giant leap to commercialization of polymer solar cell

2013-05-07

A polymer solar cell is a type of thin film solar cells made with polymers that produce electricity from sunlight by the photovoltaic effect. Most current commercial solar cells are made from a highly purified silicon crystal. The high cost of these silicon solar cells and their complex production process has generated interest in developing alternative photovoltaic technologies. Compared to silicon-based devices, PSCs are lightweight (which is important for small autonomous sensors), solution processability (potentially disposable), inexpensive to fabricate (sometimes ...

New insights into Ebola infection pave the way for much-needed therapies

2013-05-07

The Ebola virus is among the deadliest viruses on the planet, killing up to 90% of those infected, and there are no approved vaccines or effective therapies. A study published by Cell Press on May 7th in the Biophysical Journal reveals how the most abundant protein making up the Ebola virus—viral protein 40 (VP40)—allows the virus to leave host cells and spread infection to other cells throughout the human body. The findings could lay the foundation for the development of new drugs and strategies for fighting Ebola infection. "Little research is available on how the ...

Protecting the heart health of diabetic patients

2013-05-07

Diabetics have an increased risk of developing coronary artery disease and plaque build-up in their arteries, even if they receive cholesterol-lowering therapies. New research published in the May 7th issue of the Cell Press journal Cell Metabolism reveals that high blood sugar levels also boost the production of inflammatory cells, which contribute to plaque build-up in blood vessels. The researchers identify the cause of this increased production in inflammatory cells and find that blocking this new pathway could help safeguard the heart health of diabetic patients. "We ...

Biomechanical performances of old-fashioned leather and modern football helmets

2013-05-07

Charlottesville, VA (May 7, 2013). Researchers at the Center for Injury Biomechanics at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia compared the relative safety afforded by two 1930-vintage leather football helmets and 10 modern football helmets during impacts to players' heads. These researchers found that all 10 modern helmets provided significantly more protection than leather helmets used in the first half of the twentieth century, and demonstrated that differences also exist between modern helmets. Details on their methods and findings are found in "Biomechanical performance ...

Type 1 diabetes and heart disease linked by inflammatory protein

2013-05-07

NEW YORK, NY (May 7, 2013) — Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes appears to increase the risk of heart disease, the leading cause of death among people with high blood sugar, partly by stimulating the production of calprotectin, a protein that sparks an inflammatory process that fuels the buildup of artery-clogging plaque. The findings, made in mice and confirmed with human data, suggest new therapeutic targets for reducing heart disease in people with type 1 diabetes. Led by Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) researchers in collaboration with investigators at New ...

Study of new 'bone-head' hints at higher diversity of small dinosaurs

2013-05-07

Toronto, Canada – Scientists have named a new species of bone-headed dinosaur (pachycephalosaur) from Alberta, Canada. Acrotholus audeti (Ack-RHO-tho-LUS) was identified from both recently discovered and historically collected fossils. Approximately six feet long and weighing about 40 kgs in life, the newly identified plant-eating dinosaur represents the oldest bone-headed dinosaur in North America, and possibly the world. Research describing the new species is published May 7, 2013 in the journal Nature Communications. Acrotholus means "high dome", referring to its ...
