Breadicus 20:2-17 of the Holy Bagel

I am the Bagel your Bread, who brought you out of the land of Donut, out of the house of sugar;

you shall have no other breads before me. You shall not make for yourself a fridge, whether in the form of anything that is in the flourescent lights above, or that is on the floors beneath, or that is in the oven under the earth. You shall not open them or fill them; for I the Bagel your Bread am a jealous Bread, punishing children for the gluttony of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me, but showing steadfast love to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my recipies.

You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Bagel your Bread, for the Bagel will not acquit anyone who misuses his name.

Remember the baking day, and keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work. But the seventh day is a baking day to the Bagel your Bread; you shall not do any work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. For in six days the Bagel made the flourescents and floors, the oven, and all that is in them, but baked on the seventh day; therefore the Bagel blessed the baking day and consecrated it

Honor your yeast and your dough, so that your days may be long in the land that the Bagel your Bread is giving you.

You shall not eat meat.

You shall not eat dairy.

You shall not binge.

You shall not bear false witness against your baker.

You shall not covet your baker’s store; you shall not covet your baker’s oven, or yeast-slave or dough-slave, or car, or backpack, or anything that belongs to your baker.
