The everything bagel has evolved into a flavor phenomenon in its own right, offering a beloved blend of seeds and seasonings that infuses a distinctive taste into everything from snacks to seasonings, so much so that it inspired Everything Bagel Style, the first-ever limited-edition flavor from The Laughing Cow.
The Laughing Cow's Everything Bagel Style flavor shares the irresistible savory taste of garlic, sesame and poppy seed flavors with the creaminess fans know, love and crave from its lineup of individually wrapped snackable cheese wedges.
Although most everything bagel-flavored products on the market are limited to the cracker, chip and pretzel categories, The Laughing Cow saw the chance to make a mark in a different category with its latest limited-time offering.
