We’re not so great at math, here at Delish. While we do enthusiastically makePi Day-themed pies every year, that’s about the extent of our arithmetic prowess. However, when heard that you can use math to perfectly cut a bagel, we had to investigate.
According to Foodbeast, Professor George W. Hart at Stony Brook University used math to come up with the best-ever way to cut a bagel. Not only does it link the two sides of the bagel together for easier eating, but it also creates more surface area for cream cheese schmearing. Check out the below video to learn from a pro how to cut your bagel like a mathematician.

7-second life story: I was pre-med in college, until I realized that I could turn baking my problems away (instead of doing my chem homework) into a profession.
Hometown: Los Angeles
3 things I make better than anyone else: Pancakes (they are a Sunday morning staple for the Bain family), cookie dough (I will take the raw stuff over just-out-of-the-oven cookies any day), chili
Recipe I’m on the eternal hunt for: The easiest-ever, throw-together soup that I still have time to make after work
Kitchen technique I just can’t get right: Poaching eggs. I swirl the water, just like everyone says I should, but it never works. #fail
