'Eagles Bagels Flying Off The Shelves': Bakeries Showcasing Eagles-Inspired Treats

MOUNT LAUREN, N.J. (CBS) -- Local businesses are joining in on all of this Eagles excitement.

Some bakeries are showcasing Eagles-inspired treats that are soaring.

"We're very excited because this hasn't happened in the area in a long time," said Millie Brubaker, a Mount Laurel schoolteacher, of the Eagles' success so far this season.

That's why at Victoria's Bagel Bistro in Mount Laurel, there's a special swirl — a green and white bagel — fired up in an oven that is firing up fans.

Bakery owner Victoria Feehan started spreading the cheer to support the Birds.

The loyalty goes both ways. The bakery caters for some Eagles employees and they gifted a personalized jersey as a thank you.

"The Eagles bagels are flying off the shelves this season," she said.

"This is, like, the year. This is, like, the dream story right now. They're going to win. They're definitely going to win," said Gravante.

"People come in and buy the football donuts. We've been going through a lot of the Eagles cookies. It's been great," he said.

And all of this Eagles pride has a special power: the ability to convert former Vikings fans like Dan Hendrickson!
