On a large baking sheet mix the onion and garlic with a small amount of oil and salt. Bake at 250, stirring occasionally, until browned and crispy. Should take about 2 hours. When just about browned, mix in the sesame and poppy seeds, and cook another 5-10 minutes to lightly toast.

Preheat oven to 450.
Cut the bagels into 1 inch cubes. Spread on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until toasted. Process in the food processor until you have large breadcrumbs.
Mix together the cream, fontina, jack, and cream cheeses. Chop the scallions and add to the mixture.
Boil some salted water and add the pasta. When the pasta has a few more minutes of cooking time, scoop about 1/2 cup of pasta water into the cheeses. Mix well to get everything to start melting. Finally strain the pasta and add it. Mix well and all the cheeses should have melted and formed a sauce.
Pour into a baking dish. Mix in the cooked everything bagel spice mixture(you may not want all of it in there, use discretion and taste). put the bagel breadcrumbs on top of the pasta. Bake at 450 for about 20 minutes until bubbly, browned, and delicious.
