Why make homemade Everything Bagel Seasoning?

So the thing about most of the store bought Everything Bagel Seasonings is that they are loaded with salt. That is great if you just want to add a sprinkle to some food for a quick seasoning. If you are wanting to make something like these Everything Bagel Chicken Tenders, there is far too much salt in the store bought jar.

This seasoning allows you to add the crunch of seeds and flavor of garlic and onion to just about anything without over salting it. You can season with additional salt if need be. These Air Fryer Bagel Chips would be fantastic with a sprinkle of this seasoning.
