The other day I went to a luncheon buffet at the university. The menu included blackened chicken breasts, deep fried catfish filets and other Southern foods. Across from me in the line was a faculty member from another department who is from Israel. He pointed to one of the large chafing dishes and asked, "What are those?". I said, "Do you know what a falafel is?" He replied, "Of course!" Then I said, "Well, those are just American Southern Cuisine Falafels, made with corn instead of chickpeas and fava beans." |
