These sound yummy! I gotta check it out and also check on just how much of a "portion" will go to the charity

I'm pretty sure this is something Panera does annually. My feeling is: if I'm going to buy a bagel anyway, any amount donation is a good thing! Kudos to Panera for being socially responsible!

I would not normally buy....so I'm curious.

Always am working with 501c3 organizations. Some give 100%, some 50%, some as little as 10% and the rest goes to pay staff.

I'd have to travel 35 min into town to pick one up (or some)
