The proper roll of government - Page 2

Potato Salad with Egg is a Pennsylvania Dutch variation, I think

Oh, and the Proper Roll of Government is clearly a Pillsbury Crescent Roll.

You have to do all the work, they're light, lack substance, and have a faux flavor to them. It's a croissant redesigned by a committee with all the interesting parts that might be hazardous removed (crisp flakiness, butter, ability to make really good French Toast out of).

there's non-jewish potato pancake?!

...also there's an ungoing argument if falafel is jewish or lebanonese.

my bet is that they invented the stuffing for something else and jews where the ones who thought "you know what's missing? a ton of oil"... possibly around chanuka.

It's a pretty widely distributed variant -- it's hardly the light-colored yellow version of potato salad without boiled egg in it. Sliced hardboiled egg or not is just an option.

The German potato salad with the red potatoes and vinaigrette and herbs is a different potato salad.
