Troll. How is this related to food?

Funny thing, I just bought an American flag in liberal Oakland, on sale
after the 4th of July, and brought it back to my liberal enclave
neighborhood where we fly American flags and every other flag you can
think of. My 5 year old wanted it. I taught him that even if it's a
cheap plastic flag, you treat it with respect and don't leave it on the
ground.

Ob Food: eating Lebanese za'atar sprinkled dry on French bread.
