I wouldn't say the image is entirely a cartoon stereotype...
from my time in Pakistan and Afghanican, if you like spicy kebabs of
all varieties and fresh baked flat breads, you will enjoy the food
there. Saying that a taco is a stereotype is like saying that a
roast salmon is a pacific northwest stereotype. We actually do eat
quite a lot of salmon in Vancouver.

I’ve only been to Israel once, long time ago, but the
food was excellent. Didn’t see hummus, falafel or matzo
once. Never left Tel Aviv though. I was there to kick the
tires at Orckit Communications, looks like they still exist
under the same management, some ex military communications
guys. Israel has quite the military-industrial complex,
quite the revolving door between government and private
enterprise in the communications space. At the time I was
told the best and brightest could go to university and then
fulfill their universal service by working as engineers for
the government, then move into industry.
Somehow I suspect the image of both Mexican and Middle
Eastern food here in the US is pretty much a cartoon
stereotype. I will say however that I’ve been to England
and the food there is just as bad as its reputation. I will
also say the worst food on my trip to Israel was the Air
France airplane food, which seemed strange given the Mike
Royko quote that the French had many faults but they do know
how to whip up a plate of grub.

Mr Hohhof, on that point I did not stutter.
We do have a support center in Mexico City. No problem
with PR either.

Not just US & Canada.
How about Mexico or Cuba? Puerto Rico?

This Irish Catholic is not sure
of that, but I can tell you that after
working for 3 different Israeli companies,
they take better care of their employees
than any other employers I've had the
experience working for. If you value being
left alone and treated with respect, and
where family ALWAYS comes first, you could
do much worse.
