Some people have a vision board. You have eight words. A complete universe. Everything you need to know about where you come from and what will be on the table at every important moment of your life.

The 'Pickles. Dill. Mayo. Sourdough. Challah. Gefilte. Schmaltz. Latkes.' tote goes to the deli. To the market. To the Friday table. To anywhere you are going to acquire the things that make life correct and the kitchen smell like it should. Black tote, white font — as white as your dreaded gefilte fish. Grey, round, eternal, ours. No questions. 😂

This is the Ashkenazi food pyramid in tote form. Pickles — fermented, sour, the taste of patience. Dill — the herb that makes everything Eastern European and correct. Mayo — homemade, obviously. Sourdough — which rose eventually, like Jesus but with more flour. Challah — braided, golden, the bread that makes Friday feel like Friday. Gefilte — an acquired taste, and we mean that with love. Schmaltz — your cardiologist's nemesis, your bubbe's greatest gift. Latkes — the reason Hanukkah exists. 💙

It is for the Ashkenazi diaspora carrying their food universe with them everywhere they go. It is for the cultural Jew who knows all eight words and has feelings about every single one. It is for everyone whose Friday evenings have ever smelled of something frying in schmaltz while someone somewhere was lighting candles and the whole world felt, for one brief and golden moment, exactly right. 😂
