A Jew develops from the cradle
A craving for a knish and knaydl.
He'll glorify gefilte fish,
But I, I love the latke dish.
Many a Jew has made his slogan
A pot of kreplah or pirogen,
But I say "kreplah, shmeplah," nothing
Delights me as a latke puffing.
Edward Stankiewicz
Ode to the Latke
Great poem. But I'm going to have to spend a lot of time on Wikipedia before I understand it.
