\"This<\/a>
This is some of our delicious foreign food<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It’s 3:00pm and we just had some lunch, so I thought I could educate you on the foods of Israel that we bought, so here’s some facts and opinions on our little Israel munchies:<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf5ethe bread is made with chocolate, date-fig stuff and poppyseed<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf74most of the pastries are savory, with flaky, salty outsides and a cream cheese like filling<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf60the mangos are HUGE \"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

this \u00a0is a regular size plate and the biggest hunk is the pit of the one mango we bought<\/p>\n

The figs are super delicious and very fresh, mom usually dislikes figs, but we all love these.<\/p>\n

The pomegranate has no bad spots and is delicious<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf6bthe chocolate cookies are actually chocolate date fig stuff cookies and Emma doesn’t like them, but I think they’re ok<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf45the tomatoes are super fresh, somewhat crunchy, and have pointy ends<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf4dthe pineapple hasn’t been cut into yet… But it looks slightly different, the leaves are covered in little spikes!\u00a0\"image\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the few things we found labeled in English was this mango passion fruit soda and it is delicious. Dad bought grapefruit soda too, but only he likes that.<\/p>\n

What I thought was milk actually turned out to be yogurt<\/p>\n

(may we pause for a moment to appreciate the weirdness of that word?YOGURT!)<\/p>\n

And it’s somewhat sour with an interesting flavor that I think would be good on chicken. Emma dislikes it.<\/p>\n

The granola has not been tried yet.<\/p>\n

Passion fruit were available, and I really enjoy them spread on bread with cream cheese, which is softer and easier to spread here.<\/p>\n

I think that’s about it!<\/p>\n

Thank you for reading this and if you have any questions about food or our trip, feel free to ask in the comments. You can also subscribe to this blog and get notified when we post something new. I will update this shortly after we eat the pineapple \ud83c\udf4d<\/p>\n
