IT'S GOD'S PUNISHMENT:

BuzzFeed served up some Ashkenazi staples -- matzoh ball soup, noodle kugel and chopped liver among others -- to a handful of first-time Jewish food tasters and answered the pressing question: What happens when you give a goy gefilte fish? 

"It's like a cold sausage with sour paste on top," said one unimpressed taster. Another was more plainly confused: "I'm not quite sure what meat it is," he said, befuddled. [...]

Chopped liver was held in near universal contempt, with at least three participants commenting on the mushy foods' likeness to a human waste product.

Matzoh ball soup? One taster called it "the gateway drug to Jewish food," but another described it as a "giant sponge in a bowl."

It was the noodle kugel, however, that was most controversial. The gentiles panned it, with one saying he would only make it if he were expecting guests and had nothing but cinnamon and noodles in the house.
