Of course they brought the foods they ate with them, and along with the people who lived in Israel, continued to eat it. Did other Israelis eat it and make it and market it? Yes.Should credit be given? Yes. But please remember that Israelis are not one homogeneous group, and the foods they eat reflect both where they came from and where they are now.”

At worst a guest is nervous and fumbly…a decent interviewer can get past it but the host of this podcast is either too inexperienced or brutally narcissistic? I thought earlier episodes were rough because she was...”Read full review »
