Falafel

 Falafel, more like falawesome

A food good enough to start a fight

as Egyptians, Greeks, Israelis, Palestinians, Iranians, and Lebanese all claim to be

the only ones who make it right


We give Hamburg credit for the hamburger

and we thank the French for fries

But falafel is so good everyone claims credit for it's inventions

and to make it better than those other guys


The world's most contentious food deserves better

This lovely fried and crispy treat

So let's stop all this bickering and fighting

and sit down now together and let's eat


Get yourself some falafel 

Have it made every different delicious kind of way

Unless it's served with yogurt instead of tahini

in which then tell them blasphemous monsters to go away
