Traveling with tuna packets in your suitcase is REAL.
A recent BuzzFeed post on this topic elicited a strong response from more religious Jews. My take comes from a stricter observance. Keeping kosher is a privilege and a choice — a choice that I'm very happy with. But hey, sometimes you just need to kvetch.
The Food Network taunts me.

I love food television — especially Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. But then Fieri goes to an Italian restaurant in Boston and tries the house special, a meatball sub with the best looking meatballs ever. It looks amazing. I am so into it, even though I could never go to that restaurant because it's not kosher. But no big deal — it's just entertainment, so I keep watching. And I always pay attention to the ingredients. Perhaps they're actually kosher friendly and I something I can make in my own kitchen. But it turns out that pork is an ingredient in those meatballs. Reality kicks in. I get sad (and hungry).
Instagram is the WORST.
