Cheeseburgers

I don't necessarily prefer cheese on a burger, but when you are in Israel and well most things are kosher, let's say you gain a little more appreciation for putting cheese on a burger. Of course adding grilled onions an over easy egg and a piece of steak on the burger doesn't hurt either.



That's what I had last night, and it was glorious.

Today we went to a few communities in the Negev, and let's just say that the Hebrew Israelite Community is pretty crazy. I don't mean to judge (well maybe I do), but they think it's common knowledge that when an animal is killed for food, it's scared soul enters said food. It's one thing to say as a whole humans eat too much red meat, that's probably true. It's another thing to say as a matter of fact that when humans eat red meat they are having the scared soul of a killed animal enter their own, that's probably not true.

They are also vegan and we had the opportunity to eat their food for dinner tonight. They made vegan shnitzel and vegan burgers, safe to say those both taste better when it's made with actual meat. A lot of the people in the group seemed to agree the food was really good, but how could you compare salad and tofu patties to the picture above? You just can't.
