lox is YUMMY!

Quote:
lox is smoked salmon fillet that has been cured and then often cold-smoked. The cold smoking does not cook the fish, resulting in its characteristic smooth texture, similar to the raw product. The English word is derived from the Yiddish lox ("salmon")–which is a cognate of Swedish (lax), Danish/Norwegian (laks), German (Lachs), and Old English (læx). It is often served with bagels and cream cheese. Lox is noted for its importance in Ashkenazic Jewish cuisine.
from wikipedia.org. It's sooo good.

Had a chocolate chip bagel yesterday. Awfully good. Not as melty as a chocolate croissant, but still deeeelish.
