Jewfood

Ten days ago I was married to the wonderful love of my life. I'm super-giddy, happy and in all ways thrilled beyond belief.

Naturally, I thought I'd blog about Jews eating weird food.

I took this picture about a month and a half ago;

As you can see, it's 15 jars of Manischewitz Matzo Ball Soup and Whitefish in Jellied Broth.

I actually can't say anything bad about Matzo Ball soup. I've had it before, and it's tasty.

However I think the Whitefish in Jellied Broth is part of testing God's chosen people...it looks and smells like a half-decomposed donkey penis. I mean, I guess that's what it's like. Not that I would know.

The whole concept of "jellied fish" strikes me as something that only a grandparent or a weird foreigner would find appealing. It doesn't seem natural that a young guy with hipster sensibilities would embrace a food more fitting for a Moose Lodge Buffet or the main course at a JASA meeting.

Ultimately, who cares. Everyone likes all sorts of weird foods regardless of their ethnicity and whatnot. Joe would probably have love jellied fish if he had been a Korean Baptist for all I know.
But why 15 jars, that seems like so much...
Silly reader, they were on sale.

Hey, you know that old joke about the Jew's biggest dilemma - pork on sale. What did you think would happen when actual Jew food was made half price? LA is full of Jews, I'm surprised no one was trampled.

And what the hell are you doing with yourself that you have this much time to ruminate on my jellied fish?
