I must say, one thing at least Protestantism in the U.S. does well is avoids being home-country ethnicky. Except for the Jesus Camp bizarre ones that confuse God with 'merica.
But yeah. I don't get the whole convert-to-orthodoxy and become a Russian Studies major and brainwash yourself into thinking you like eastern European food. I'd do soooooo much to have Pad Thai or fried rice or hotdogs or lasagna or something like that at coffee hour instead of paste of unidentifiable and the pickled vegetables that makes the line "...who came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the first" really easy to believe because I don't like the food all the grannies have been slaving over to serve to everyone and that probably makes me a bad person.
I'm sorry. I just don't like most of these foods.
