Chop Suey on Shabbat: How American Jews Embraced Chinese Food
From their earliest encounters with Chinese food at the beginning of the 20th century, American Jews have embraced, adapted, and sometimes refashioned the cuisine. Sharing her research into this fascinating culinary and social history, the Wyner Family Jewish Heritage Center’s Curhan Scholar Shiyong Lu will explore the interactions between American Jews and Chinese food purveyors, and how adaptations arose in restaurants and home cooking in response to the cuisine’s tremendous popularity among Jews and its violation of kashrut (Jewish dietary laws). She will look at the similarities and differences between how this cross-cultural relationship played out in New York and Boston, and trace how American Chinese food became a bridge that linked two communities together.

Join us at the Rescue Eats Popup happening at @fitchburgpublicmarket. Indulge in delicious bites and support a great cause. Come hungry and leave happy! See you there!
Rescue Eats was founded by eight college students with a vision: create a more affordable, accessible, and sustainable way to connect people with real food. Started at Chico State’s Center for Entrepreneurship, Rescue Eats has grown into a platform that supports natural food stores, local restaurants, and farms by helping them reach more customers and reduce food waste. Natural food stores use Rescue Eats to sell fresh items with short shelf lives. Farms share imperfect produce and freshly harvested goods that might otherwise go unsold. Restaurants offer discounted meals to increase foot traffic and help us complete the food circle—ensuring good food is shared, not wasted. Their ultimate goal? Complete the food circle—by making good food available to more people and donating meals to those in need. At Rescue Eats believes food should be shared, not wasted. They’re there to make sure no meal gets left behind!
