There are a lot of kosher food items, including kosher wines that come from Israel.

But the co-op's unusual Jewish character is being tested by a proposal to ban products bought from Israel, such as the persimmons and red peppers that are currently in the produce aisle.
So what do they have in Israel that we don't have better here?
As far as food--- Better falafel sandwiches, better olives, better array of smoked fish and they raise giant turkeys
The top turkey- eating country in the world is Israel at 11.5 kg per person every year.

Its better. Thanks for the clarification.
So, it was some moronic letter and a wishful thinking on the part of impartial media, and then it’s got a separate life on the Internet.
Thanks for the facts checking.
