Do any women like herring?
Some on the other side do NOT like it, nor the smell. In fact some get really nauseous from being in close proximity to it… Ew.. just thinking about it…
Why not?
Chasidishe women like it.

I’m a teenage female and I’m NOT chassidish and I like herring so ha!
My wife and daughters eat herring, I can’t stand it.
I can tolerate Gefiltle Fish if drenched in Horseraddish. Herring is just inedible and I wont even touch it. They rarely even serve it as kidduishes in my shul because nobody eats it
Midoraisa a husband can divorce a wife who insists on eating herring. But not vice versa. (This is more relevant to Sefardim who don’t have Rabbeinu Gershom.)
J… let me show this to Frogette… (after I hide the pots and pans)
Kidding aside, I am makir tovah, acknowledge and appreciate the kindness my family accords (and puts up with) me, when these and other such “foods” are served, they put it on the other end of the table.
in my experience, women like the creamy, sauce-drenched herring, while the men who eat it at all generally prefer the real shmaltz stuff.
My ex-wife loved herring, as did her mother. Her mother made a great schmaltz herring. I would make matjas herring. She loved that too.
in the words of my beloved wife ‘ EEEEWWWW!!!!!!!
You feminists, trying to pretend women like herring like men. You just want to be men.
It is not tznius for women to eat herring. A woman’s tafkid is not the same as a man.
…and a man’s tafkid is to eat herring!
this is extremely racist hiring has to do with your taste buds not with your sex therefore if you like it you like it if you don’t you don’t it’s the same as any other food for example hot dogs some people like them some people don’t
It’s not that it doesn’t have to do with your taste buds, it’s just that it’s unseemly for a woman to take a man’s role.
I don’t like herring.
No wonder I landed in an Open Orthodox synagogue.
i personally think herring is vile but i wouldnt want to insult anyone.
What does a man’s role have to do with herring?
Women do like herring but those who make kiddushim must think they don’t because most of the time herring is not served on the women’s side of the kiddush. Speaking of kiddushim, have you noticed that the fancy cakes go on the women side and men get the typical kiddush cakes. I guess they think men eat anything
I would like to ask those who think that herring is vile. Do you also think that sushi is vile?
just the fish and seaweed. otherwise i really like it.
I guess they think men eat anything
or they know who is judging the kiddush by the looks and who by the taste.
So judgemental.
so informed. which, btw, is why i don’t go out much.
Cheer up!
oh, im actually quite happy this way. i dont have to worry about seeing erva, pritzus, drunk men, or hearing lashon hora. life’s good.
Shopping:
The fact that you felt the need to ask that question shows that feminist values have infiltrated our community.
I am a feminist. I see no problem with being a feminist Jew.
I’m in the mood for some genuine cured corned beef; the kind that took several weeks to prepare. Does anyone still do it or are they all overnight chemicals doing the curing nowadays? To borrow a phrase, if you youngins never had the original corned beef, you never ate corned beef in your lives.
Homealone, that is an excellent question. I’m surprised nobody bothered to answer you.
Here are some questions for you-
Have you been on many dates? Did they go well? Did you go out of your way to make the experience pleasant for the person you were dating?
Just curious…
Yes I think most sushi is vile, same with sashimi
I don’t like fish.
I still cure (pickle) my own corned beef brisket. Usually three weeks in the barrel/brine before cooking.
I also smoke my own pastrami, sausages, turkey, etc.
Some of the benefits of living in the country
And while we’re discussing herring-
Does anybody remember the story of the tzadik nistar/milkman in Yerushalayim who dipped his hat in herring brine? What was his name? Is it a true story?
Bottom line, if it is true, it would seem a lot of ladies are not big fans of herring…
um, yea, homealone, kinda figured you were…
But how about that Yerushalmi milkman?
No one else ever heard of him?
I did too. And I also forgot the name.
My wife will not touch herring, but whenever we have company she feels compelled to buy a half a dozen types of herring for shalosh sudos.. Ditto with all other delicious/unhealthy/high calorie food. I’m not complaining,but what chance do I have at trying to lose 10 pounds? None.
Love, love, love it! Especially in cream sauce. Never get the chance to eat it, though.
Do any women like the anisakis worms in the herring also?
Reb Betzalel Milchiger (not his actual last name, which I don’t remember).
According to a comment on another website,
it was sour milk that he dipped his hat in.
