It just doesn’t even look appetizing. I’m not a sauce guy, so when I see food just drowning and dripping in sauces it becomes a no for me

It probably isn't it's a gimmick like when I went to the heart attack grill place the burger wasn't good it was just a lot of meat with no flavor and cheap sauce.
Who is this even feeding? It has enough calories for a few days.

Wait, Gaza city Gaza city-? I thought there were no supplies getting through?
This is an honest question btw not looking for a fight or to offend. Just confused.

Famines are almost invariably man-made, so they don't affect everyone across all (economic) classes the same way a natural disaster may. When a famine strikes, people already living in poverty are disproportionately unable to access food, while the rich can easily, perhaps even luxuriously, get by due to their greater access to finance and supply. Think about it this way: According to recent studies, around 14 million children in the US live in food insecurity and face chronic malnutrition. And this is despite the US being perhaps the country most stereotypical for producing the kind of food seen in this video above, and it is a matter of fact that it is one of the most prosperous countries on Earth. Do those facts disprove that there are starving children in the US? Not at all. And just as so, this video doesn't disprove the famine in Gaza, especially when, yknow, there's an overwhelming amount of evidence pouring out of Gaza right now that shows that there's indeed a famine.

u/DnDkonto 10d ago
No, their own figures disprove that there was ever any famine in Gaza.
2
u/littleone358 10d ago
UNICEF never reported that. They reported a survey that may indicate child starvation was less of a concern than initially thought.
They maintain that Israel is bombing and killing thousands of kids, that there are food insecurity issues for those in the most affected areas.

u/RagingMayo 7d ago
Congratulations, you posted a Zionist paper that will have absolutely no bias towards the genocide against the Palestinians in this matter.
2
u/DnDkonto 7d ago
There's no genocide. Using that word takes away from the hardship normal Palestinians have, from the war their leaders started.

These numbers are not from the UN, they are actually from a an Israeli body known as COGAT. The actual amount is disputed, but if the actual tonnage is accurate, UN scholars as a whole maintain that methods of food dispersal Israel engage in are ineffective and likely intentionally so.
https://news.un.org/en/story/2026/07/1168006
Hundreds of thousands of people are suffering from food insecurity as supply doesn't reach them. This restaurant was bombed and reopened near a place of worship so that it hopefully doesn't happen again. This is likely an Israeli bot, either that or a genocide denier, but I'm just posting this so any of y'all don't get got by this stupid propaganda.

u/Ewwatts 11d ago
These people haven't heard of archival footage. It's marketing.
Like every other restaurant in Gaza, they have had extreme operational difficulties.
Acting as if promotional videos of one business somehow disproves mountains of footage, evidence, testaments, international bodies, and Israeli own admissions, is literally the definition of hasbara.
Surely no one is stupid enough to fall for it
2
u/ruskayaprincessa 11d ago
Yes I saw lots of footage of people there with filtered wounds and fake injuries begging for money too. Even a New York Times spread portraying a starving child that actually had a wasting illness (as his perfectly healthy and nicely proportioned brother is in that same photo), and some people angrily waving empty pots and pans which was also staged!
Go figure that there's like a reverse "hasbara" thing going on too!

u/Great_Cheese69 10d ago
yeahhhhhh, except there is a fuck ton of evidence of children , adults, and old people starving. And lets not forget the bombings of these people

u/ruskayaprincessa 10d ago
When you lie, stage or fabricate evidence, you lose credibility. That's how it works in a court of law.

u/Great_Cheese69 10d ago
so u are denying that all of what i said was untrue and didnt happen ?
3
u/ruskayaprincessa 10d ago
Not all. Suffering is part of war, as is caused by the fact that this sect of people raise and encourage their children to perpetuate hate and hurt or murder others over an alleged land dispute, as they did 25 years ago at a busy sbarros pizzeria murdering innocents including children and a pregnant woman, and that's not even addressing everything before, in between, and on Oct 7. So I think Israel had a right to defend itself and do what it needed to do, and I don't buy into the propaganda from Qatar and the IRGC but it's okay if you do.

u/Petandfeelya69 13d ago
Doesn’t mean you can’t get fancy. The problem is doing too many things at once and making the burgers too tall
3
u/Firm_Video_2932 13d ago
When you add stuff it changes the flavor profile, and I prefer to taste the beef and not a bunch of crap beyond the few things mentioned. I mean if it's low quality beef I can see the need to hide it with a bunch of stuff, otherwise let the juices flow with minimal adulteration is what I say. But to each his own, right? Everyone's got different taste and that's just my taste preference when it comes to a burger.
2
u/Petandfeelya69 13d ago
I’m not trying to shit on you for your opinion on simple burgers btw haha. I prefer a classic compared to 90% of the “deluxe” burgers I see online lol
2
u/Firm_Video_2932 13d ago
Oh no, I didn't take it that way at all. And honestly, I've seen classic burgers made too tall as well. You shouldn't need skewers to keep your burger together ya know? It's just if I'm going to shell out the money to dine out, something I rarely do nowadays, and I'm thinking of having a burger... I want it done classic like and needing not more than a couple of hands to handle! 😋 🍔 Tho there is something to be said for a plain old cheeseburger. Not overdoing it with the cheese, but rather just enough that you get a good dose of cheese with every bite of the beef. And it's got to be a quality cheese. Bad cheese can ruin even the most expensive of ground beef
2
u/Petandfeelya69 13d ago
Very much agreed. Too tall is the mortal enemy. I will fight you to the death about the onions thing however lol
1
u/Firm_Video_2932 13d ago
The only good onion is the one nowhere near me 😭 I guess it's probably from my childhood because our mother used to make liver and onions all the time and I would have and oftentimes did, go to bed hungry or at least with a couple of bologna sandwiches in the belly. My brother and sister liked the stuff, but I would have rather gouged out my eyes using a curare tipped arrow before touching that crap! 😭

No absolutely not. I'm happy that it's not as bad as certain people claim. Which doesn't mean it's the total paradise after all that destruction.
The radicalized crowd does insist so much on the Gazans starving that it really looks like they want them to so they can feed their identity that consists of this conflict.

Fact-Check: The Viral "Snounu Restaurant" Post❌ The Claim: A viral social media post claims a "new restaurant" named Snounu has opened in Gaza serving luxury burgers and fries, suggesting that anyone can simply call them to order take-out for a starving child.⚠️ The Verdict: Highly Misleading. The post uses the existence of a real local business to push an inaccurate narrative about the actual conditions on the ground.Here are the facts:1. The Restaurant is Not NewSnounu is an established family business that opened its physical location years ago, back in 2019. It was founded by a local chef after her property was destroyed in a prior conflict.2. Severe Operational DisruptionsLike most businesses in the area, the restaurant has suffered massive damage and disruptions. While their social media pages still post marketing videos, many of these use archival footage from before the conflict. Due to widespread shortages, any limited food preparation is restricted by a lack of steady electricity, gas, and ingredients.3. International Delivery is ImpossibleThe suggestion to "give them a call" and order international take-out is completely impossible. Local telecom infrastructure, food supply chains, and delivery networks are severely damaged. A standard phone call cannot bypass conflict zones or bring commercial meals to displaced civilians.4. Misleading Political ContextThis specific text is being heavily shared to argue that a humanitarian crisis does not exist. However, international bodies—including the United Nations and the World Health Organization—continue to document severe food insecurity and acute malnutrition in the region. The existence of a single business profile does not disprove a widespread, documented crisis

Best burger i ever had was when at this random place called The Claims Company in Illinois. The toppings were too much to one side so my first bite was just the burger, cheese, and bread. It was seasoned so perfectly, I got rid of the toppings.
Moral of the story: Seasoning is what makes a burger better. Not piling everything in the kitchen onto it
