NextImg:NYC bagel shop worker praised for denying West Coaster’s ‘scooped’ gluten-free bagel request

Lox him up and throw away the key.

A Big Apple bagelry is being praised for refusing a troublesome TikToker from Los Angeles their demand for a more West Coast-friendly version of the locally-beloved breakfast.

The trouble began when the unnamed shop is alleged to have said no to fashion exec Taylor Offer’s request for a “scooped” bagel.

“There’s nothing more stressful than ordering a bagel in New York City,” Offer, CEO of athleisure brand Feat, complained in an explicative TikTok viewed 3.5M times.

Scooping is a popular maneuver for those looking to cut back on their gluten intake, or to allow for more filling. The so-called “hack” joins the ranks of gimmicky, often social media-driven special requests that have lately been driving local restaurateurs berserk.

“The guy just looks at me and goes ‘I’m not scooping your ‘f–king bagel, bro,” the obstreperous out-of-towner claimed.

Offer — who also mockingly ranted about giving an NYC homeless person his used pizza crust in another video, and criticized the way New Yorkers walk in a third clip — says he fought back, saying, “Dude, that’s how I want it.'”

“[The worker] was like ‘get the f–k out of here with that s–t,'” the agitated Angeleno revealed.

The Post reached out to Offer, who apparently later got a scooped bagel at another unnamed location, for comment.

The gluten-hating go-getter’s grumblings brought out New York’s bagel defenders, who quickly toasted Offer and his order.

“The deli guy was correct,” one person commented.

Offer told his followers that he was finally able to get what he wanted at another location.

“Scooped bagel is a crime I am sorry,” wrote another.

“I imagine a scooped bagel is like ordering a muffin and only eating the wrapper,” chimed in a third.

““I’m from Los Angeles” told me everything I needed to know,” commented a fellow user.

Offer’s other tirades in the Big Apple have TikTokers asking, “when is your flight home?”

“I get more angry the more I watch these videos,” another wrote on Offer’s clip about the homeless person.

“NYC is chewing you up and spitting you out. Like a scooped bagel,” added one more.

New York’s classic bagel culture has taken a bruising of late, aided in part by a 2021 article in the New York Times by a clueless West Coast-based reporter, proclaiming California home of the country’s best bagels.

The Big Apple’s hometown bagel lovers have also shown signs of restlessness with the status quo — one Long Island deli recently created a stir with their Doritos-flavored bagel.
