The town I live in

The town I currently live in is so white that …

… the local bakery makes only white bread (no wheat) and the last sandwich shop I went to only made sandwiches with mayo — not one option had mustard!

… there is a chinese restaurant that bills itself as a “chop suey palace” (I’d take a photo but I’d rather not get arrested)

… the only kosher restaurant in town was a kosher irish place (it closed before I moved here in January, unfortunately). I can just see the menu — corned beef and latkes!

… there actually is a 7/11 that employs only white people. It’s like one of those mythical places you can only find by getting lost, and you can never get back there (none of the employees could read a map either)

But even out here they showed Harold and Kumar at the local multiplexes (both of them!)

One thought on “The town I live in

  1. oy. corned beef and latkes? that’s a shanda, i tell you.

    and you wonder why i am terrified of “walmart“. i’ll happily stay in ubiquitously kosher, mustard-positive “Costco”, thanks.
