Panera Bread’s Pink Ribbon Bagel

Panera Bread Company is bringing back thier limited edition Pink Ribbon Bagel in honor of October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The bagel is in the shape of an awareness ribbon and features cherry chips as well as real bits of cherries and cranberries. A portion of the sales of each bagel will go to breast cancer awareness and research, although the portion of profits and recipient charity varies depending on location. Some franchisees are supporting the Susan B. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, while others are donating to hospitals, mammogram programs, and awareness organizations in their local areas. Customers can pre-order the bagels for their breakfasts, brunches, and other events by using a form available on the Panera website.
The pink breast cancer bagel has been an annual event since 2001. The idea was developed by Sue Stees, a breast cancer survivor and Panera Bread franchisee with nineteen cafe locations in Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma.

The Pink Ribbon Bagel is just about the awesomest thing I’ve ever heard of. Crazy cool. It doesn’t take a genius to issue a limited edition frying pan and make it available in pink, but ribbon-shaped bagels? Why has no-one thought of this before?
