I admit it
I don't like felafel.
I just don't. And I love garbanzo beans, or as they're called in rest of the world, apparently, chick peas. We always called them garbanzo beans at home, but chick peas is a much less goofy name, and nobody here knows what I'm talking about when I say the word "garbanzo." Anyway, I love them. I used to eat them in piles on my plate when my family would go to Soup Plantation or something. I've been turned aroud on hummus, but felafel is a concoction I just can't get behind, and for the most part vegetarian Middle Eastern food is pretty good stuff. But they do love their felafel. I'll sooner eat almost anything else in a restaurant.
Now excuse me while I go hide from any random Israelis who may for some reason be reading this blog and come to kick me out of their country.

You just need to try some REAL felafel. I know this little place in San Juan Capistrano...
That's ok - your mom makes up for you. I ADORE falafel, even though I spell it differently. I'd take it over straight chick peas or hummus any day.
