Where I grew up there was something called a bulke which tasted similar but was a roll. It was never as good as a bagel tho.
But a really good, chewy, proper bagel (not one of those inflated pillows) should be eaten either with nothing but butter, or with smoked salmon and cream cheese, none of which fall out.

Chopped liver goes on matzo, not bagels :-)
