    is it even from israel? we eat something very similar (called tarhonya) and apparently it's been here for centuries. we got it from the south slavs who got it from the ottomans who got it from persia or somewhere in that area.

    i actually really like tarhonya, but yeah it aint couscous.

    see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarhonya

    correction, the hand made version is old, the machine made version may be copied from the israeli stuff. or it may be an independent invention. i dunno.
