We also used to make wicks out of the toilet paper, and stick them into the tuna like birthday candles in a cake which would burn higher than just laying the t.p. straight down which would burn almost the entire can of tuna (this method takes like three times longer so we couldn't always do this).
    Just for a point of reference, back in the day canned tuna was too rare and expensive to burn ...

    I have 2 answers, the first, I was young, idealist, and israel meats sucks, all of them, at the end started eating shawarma and some chiken. My ex wife was vegetarian also when we lived in israel.

    And lately, since I become ill, I stopped eating meat again. Now i started to eat again, but a just a little.

    Anyway, the loof was the most horrible thing I ever saw.

    When I was in Makkim I met a guy from PALSAR 7 or PALSAR 401 who was a VEGAN.
    I don't know how he managed to survive a maslul on that kind of diet.

    True about the quality of Israeli meat, with some few exceptions - such as fresh chicken pilfered from the Kibbutz lul over a BBQ.

    Oh, and I would take loof any day over the other option of that beef stew / dog food concoction ...

    Good old Ricard Levi canned meats. Used to like the Zoglobeck stuff, but it's probably 90% nitrates and salt, 10% meat by-product. The other alternative was the 3-4 times a year that we bar-b-qued some unfortunate cow from the refet. Nothing tastes as bad as broiled milk cow, except broiled milk cow whose number and milk volume you remembered. It was almost paradise when an El Gaucho opened in Eilat near the airport.

    I am glad I was vegetarian at that time. In my machzor they called me falafel.

    I remember El gaucho, it was very good for israeli standards.

    but who need meat when you have hummus, Falafel, cottagge cheese, eggs ( tons of eggs), pita bread and pytriot pizza?

    One of the guys from my machzor was a vegitarian and felt he's not getting enough nutrition, so he sent a letter to the Mahat during his roll as a Mak Tironim about it.

    The kitchen guys stocked boxes of nuts and dried fruits for him as a result.

    I also walked in a room once and he was doing Yoga.
