Bagel
A bagel is a Jewish bread in the shape of a ring, which has become popular in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. This word obviously derives from the Yiddish word beygal, which comes from the German word Bügel, meaning stirrup. According to legends, the bagel originated in Vienna in 1683, when bakers invented this bread in the form of a stirrup, inspired by the victory obtained by King John III Sobieski of Poland, who led the cavalry attack against the Turks in the Battle of Vienna.
