HB #62: Beer, Chumus and Israel
Manage episode 318513291 series 3117263
Two Guys Talk about the Good, the Bad, the Ugly Nate and Hershy start the discussion wondering where can you find the best beer but soon the conversation turns into what Israel is known for and what it badly lacks. Nate shares his love for fresh, local chummus and how in Israel, chummus and pita (and schug) are a replacement for the American PB&J. Who knew? Continuing with food, Nate shares that Israel has the best kosher fast food, amazing fresh bread, BUT few high-quality restaurants.
Speaking of food, Hershy segues to his Birthright trip where he remembers sneaking out after curfew for a great Mexican burrito that tasted even better because he had snuck out to eat it.
Then Nate gets real and shares what Israel “is terrible at.” From Covid restrictions to medical care, Nate minces no words. Hershy tries to ease things up by saying that perhaps it’s simply a cultural difference.
In the end, all is well when Nate stops and reflects, “In America, we practice Judaism, in Israel we LIVE Judaism.” Perfection in a phrase. Enjoy.
