True story:

Someone called my wife for info about a girl, (Just so happens, I knew the caller and the young lady in question as well.)

Basic info, all the relevant details, then she askes, “is she a Heimisher girl?” To which my wife says, “what do you mean by Heimish?”

Caller says, (I kid you not):

“Is she the type to only serve chicken soup on Friday night, or would she serve vegetable soup as well”

And we wonder why we have a shidduch crisis.
