I think we Jews like to argue, about the silliest of things.  Latkes for example.  Do you serve them with applesauce or sour cream?  I prefer sour cream, but my kids are all about the applesauce.

Do you like them thick or thin? – At our house the answer is medium, shredded, not mashed with lots of onion.  There is never enough onion.

But the biggest argument?  Are latkes a side dish or a meal?  I grew up thinking that was dinner, my husband thinks we are supposed to serve chicken or brisket. So every year I buy two chickens at Marsh, and package up one and a half after dinner.

No matter how you like them, they are delicious!  Happy Hanukkah!
