Food was always a big part of my life. My grandfather was one of 14 kids, and his parents had a pasta factory, so as a kid, he and his siblings would sell pasta door to door. After he became a movie producer, he opened up De Laurentiis Food Stores - one in Los Angeles and one in New York. ↗

An aged rabbi, crazed with liberalism, once said to me, We Jews are just ordinary human beings. Only a bit more so! ↗
