    Without question, the greatest tragedy currently facing the Shabbos table is the newfangled foods which have been appearing in some homes. Obviously under the influence of the o.o. crowd, people have introduced such novelties as flanken soup and sushi to uproot the Mesorah of chicken soup and gefilte fish, which has been handed down since at least Matan Torah.

    I knew we were in trouble the first time I saw quinoa salad on the same table as the heilige potato Kugel.

    Believe it or not, this dangerous attack on Yiddishkeit has its roots in the Chassidim, as is well documented in Seforim printed as far back as 1492.

    “Without question, the greatest tragedy currently facing the Shabbos table is the newfangled foods…”

    Surely you don’t mean to say that this is the greatest tradgedy.

    In everything! That’s why I wrote Yum!

    But someone else has to chop the onions for me – I have sensitive eyes.

    catch yourself: I cannot tell if you are joking or serious. Flanken soup? My parents were making that…in the 1960’s.

    Lol. I have a comic on my phone that I downloaded from Google. With vegetables.

    Let’s say it’s a carrot, celery, tomato, and onion (okay fine one fruit).

    The Onion is holding his hurt knee. He looks like he’s in excruciating pain.

    The Carrot says “Great the Onion got a cut and now we’re all gonna cry!”

    I forgot to add that my mesorah from my grandparents was to eat boiled carp on Leil Shabbos, not gefilte fish.

    #1 tragedy facing the Shabbos dinner table is….calling a seudah, “dinner”.

    Or maybe it’s a miracle that people who grew up with dinner tables are having Shabbos dinner tables.

    I have heard of a dinner table…..but never a seudah table.

    yitzchokm: Good point. Then I read LU’s post and realized such was so true. I didn’t grow up with a Shabbos seudah.

    Thanks for the correction on “seudah” too 🙂
