that might vary for some people. flax has a strange bitter/astringent/fishy flavour to me, and i can pick up on it in seeded breads. if vb is sensitive to flavours and finds it unpleasant like i do, i could see it wrecking a bagel.

So like, ONE of those is a flaxseed (not too offensive) but the longer one to the right isn't...

Caraway perhaps?

Hmmm Google image search certainly looks like these (guess I don't like caraway??)

Caraway might also trick you on other occasions! If you see the spice "Kumina" in the store (or "Kummin" in Swedish), you might think "ah, cumin, just what I needed". But you will be deceived, because Kumina is actually caraway, while "Roomankumina" (or "Spiskummin") is cumin.
