The Jordanian blogosphere is mourning a ban on the sale of chicken Shawarma – chicken or beef, tossed salad and tahini – all rolled in delicious pita bread. Hareega, who lives in the US, writes (Ar): Fellow blogger Khalaf adds: After the third mass shawerma poisoning within the last year, the government has decided to banish the greasy treat from the country’s restaurants. This ban will last until they figure out how to keep it safe. I suppose this is prudent, although it punishes clean establishments for the sins of the unhygienic. Maybe they should prevent people from drinking water as well. In another food-related item, Hareega protests the Israeli ‘hijacking’ of a number of the Levant's delicacies and dishes, declaring: Steal the land, kill the people, terrorize the kids, occupy the villages and cut off water and electricity from everyone, but don't ever think of stealing my food!
