Well that explains it. I really think the "Ashkenazi" cuisine then is probably just food from Europe that has been altered in some way or another since they brought it along with them.MrPopo wrote:majority of Jews in America are Ashkenazi, Jews from Eastern Europe, and that group shares a common set of foods either from their origin or what was developed after immigrating to America. That group of Jews was a big part of founding movie and TV studios and so the general idea of Jewish culture comes from that.
Another interesting fact, I thought most would be migrating in masses because as far as I heard its like the Jewish dream to have their own land.MrPopo wrote:Along those lines, it was only recently that the number of Jews in Israel was greater than the number of Jews in the US.
Until recently I really didn't think Jews were treated as a subgroup in Europe/America . I thought you can't tell a difference just like you can't tell a difference between an atheist or a christian. Now I know they have their own cuisine, not celebrate Christmas(IIRC), and have their own identifying names like BERG.
. The easiest word to jump on is the N-word. Seriously why people use it so casually is beyond me it kind of feels like how a young child who has just learned a cuss word goes around spouting it because it draws peoples attention. I don't find the humor in it when people refer to each other using racial slurs even if it is a "safe" word because they are of the race that the slur is used against. Really propagating the usage of any slurs just compounds the issue of racism further in my opinion.
