That’s wild. I haven’t heard that stat. Though I’m very familiar with the mafia tales. It’s really sad.

So interesting and a little scarry. My husband is going to Rome in a few weeks, but he goes to vegan and vegetarian restaurants. I wonder if they have also been taken over by mafia?

As for the bagels, there's a chance they might be from a little business called, Beehive bagels, owned by a couple from the east coast USA. Hence, why they are so delicious and authentic. If it's them, the couple have been in Rome for decades but only started the bagel business during the pandemic.
