Breaking news: Ice-T has eaten his first bagel and boy, he is not a fan.
The iconic rapper caused an uproar a few weeks ago when he tweeted that he had “never eaten a bagel” in his life, or “drank a cup of coffee either”.
Lol. I’ve never eaten a Bagel in my life… https://t.co/1a4jtL9qTP

Ice-T notably played a New York detective in Law & Order: SVU, and Twitter fans were quick to remind him that his cop character was caught on camera ordering the bread-based snack.
The 60-year-old rapper chastised nay-sayers, explaining that, “Lol. TV is make-believe”.

Ice tried a coffee first, declaring that it “tastes like water,” and that “this is my first time and I can pretty much tell you this will be the last time I ever drink black coffee. Why would you do that?”
T then took on a cream cheese bagel, where he again struggled to find the appeal: “That one bite… I feel like I just ate a loaf of bread. People eat this whole thing?”
As a married man, the rapper’s affiliation with a dating site was, of course, called into question, with one outraged Twitter user stating: “Ice, you’ve a wife”.
Lol…. I’m trying to help YOU get a wife… Lol. I’m Good.. https://t.co/v8izMY7W6X
