Giant, Safeway, or SFW?  Bite your tongue!  Bagels from any of these three
sources simply aren't (despite the ethnic roots of the owners of the former
and the latter).  Bagels, by definition, have a hard, crunchy outer crust,
and soft, chewy inside.  CBBB bagels have this (although I vaguely recall
that the quality of the crust has gone down over time), while supermarket
bagels have all the crunch of a wet noodle.
