About Bagel with Cream Cheese
The classic coffee-shop breakfast: a toasted plain bagel with a thick layer of regular cream cheese. Two tablespoons of spread add about 100 kcal and most of the fat, bringing the whole thing to around 382 kcal.
Tip: Shops often use closer to 3–4 tablespoons. Whipped cream cheese has about a third fewer calories per spoonful because it's lighter, and a thin layer of light cream cheese saves even more.
