    Jewish food. ‘Hebrew food’ isn’t an offensive term at all, it’s just not what it’s called. People in the Bible referred to themselves as Hebrews, but today we generally call ourselves Jews. In the 19th century and earlier, the word ‘Hebrew’ was sometimes used as a euphemism for ‘Jewish’ because of the unfortunately common anti-Semitism in society, but this is not the case today. The Reform (liberal) movement of Judaism used to call its main organization in the U.S. the ‘Union of American Hebrew Congregations,’ but in 2003 the name was changed to ‘Union for Reform Judaism.’ Enjoy the food! The sweet mac and cheese is probably a noodle kugel — a delicious side dish. And thanks for supporting Hadassah.
