well obviously people who do not fit into my very limited worldview cannot possibly exist and therefore eat nothing

as a sephardic jew i feel like im fighting for my life to describe some of the foods my family eats to other people🧍‍♀️

Maybe the food from whatever countries your family is from? I feel like this isn’t that crazy bc there aren’t rlly any Christian or Muslim foods, it’s more tied to the actual country ppl are from

Pretty sure you missed the point of my post. My family cooks cous cous, tagine, makes hummus. They have for generations yet people are will say we stole it or actively try to erase our ties to that food culture. Also there are many foods with religious symbolism for Islam and Christianity and all the other religions. We cook some foods directly prepared around the traditions of Shabbat like tbit or jachnun.
