      Halva isn’t Jewish, it’s levant Arabian especially Lebanese and Palestinians.

          It’s fine, common misconception. Like saying couscous is “Israeli” when the Amazigh invented it.

            I think people get confused on that one because of “Israeli” couscous or ptitim, which is actually different food. It’s a pasta product created by Nestle during the 1950s. Basically like acini di pepe but toasted.

            It sucks ass and is basically a Great Depression food from the austerity era following WWII.

          It’d be funnier if he died from corned beef or dill herring

      Honestly I associate halva most with the Caucasus but that’s only because of that one Shamkhan Daldayev song

      To be fair, halva is common all over the Arab/Turkish Mediterranean too, I used to buy it to my Turkish goods dealer.
