‘Food Fight’ Is The Orthodox Community’s Answer To ‘Chopped’

A battle is raging on kosher.com.

The battle is called “Food Fight,” and it’s a web series to decide who will become the next kosher food champion.

The challenge? To create a stunning dish with one key ingredient and only 30 minutes to spare and may the most delicious dish win.

The idea of pitting women against each other for the entertainment of the teeming hordes was born in December, by Mishpacha and its partner site Kosher.Com. It is voted by kosher celebrity foodies like the “Aussie Gourmet” Naomi Nachman, Isaac Bernstein, culinary director of Pomegranate in Brooklyn, and Faigy Murray, food editor at The Lakewood Voice.

The winner of “Food Fight” takes all, and by all we mean a $5,000 gift certificate to Town Appliance to gussy up a dream kosher kitchen.

Sheitels [wigs], dramatic background music, and sizzling dishes, followed by ruthless judge commentary — what could be better? Watch the show here.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.

At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.

Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly. 

— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
