Why should one eat — or avoid — Jewish food? What makes food "Jewish" in the first place? Such questions feature prominently not only in Jewish texts but also in the classical sources of Christianity and Islam. A talk by David Freidenreich, Pulver Family Associate Professor of Jewish Studies at Colby College. Sponsored by the religious studies department. FMI jbelive2@bates.edu.
