Rapper Ice-T is tired of fighting. He’s tired of hiding. He is who he is: A 60-year-old man who has never eaten a bagel and never intends to eat one. He said as much on social media today, sending Bagel Twitter into a fit:
White people.. Don’t lose your Fn minds because I’ve never eaten a Bagle.. Take it easy…. lol
— ICE T (@FINALLEVEL) November 9, 2018
T, whose runs his social media accounts with an iron fist (seriously, if you don’t follow him you should, he’s incredibly charming) doesn’t beat around the bush — it’s whites and whites alone who abdicate control of their minds when they hear about his no-bagel diet. Graciously, he reminds white people to simply take it easy. Considering a lot of these white people must be Jews, we feel this is easier said than done.
It’s brave of the tastemaker to come forward with this admission. Doughy carb hunks boiled and dusted with specks just aren’t everyone’s cup of (iced) tea.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
