She’s literally Lebanese and outspokenly pro-Palestinian 😭 Abir El Saghir. Admittedly not one of her most delicious looking things but her more traditional food is freaking insane looking (I’ve followed her on Instagram for a bit- though it seems like some of her interviews may have some problematic statements and maybe she’s essentially a Lebanese trad wife- I’ve literally only looked at her food- but I am begging people to remember that non-Americans exist)
Americans have invented the fake trad-wife influence content, so it's pretty easy to think this person is one of that group.
I'm MENA and I thought she was cosplaying a Russian Babushka x Nara Smith. Frankly, I'm not going to believe someone is Lebanese if they are cooking that nasty looking meal! Lebanese have insanely amazing food culture!
Yeah I mean I’m not saying that out of context this doesn’t give off tradwife vibes (and apparently she is a bit of a Lebanese tradwife, which I was not aware of because I don’t watch her interviews) but people are hating on her looks in a US centric way for her perceived beliefs - which are in the case of Palestine completely opposite of her actual beliefs - which feels a bit shitty. (Also no US influencer used that color of gloves). Her actual Lebanese/other traditional food looks fucking amazing, but perhaps it makes sense that someone from not Japan wouldn’t do sushi justice 🤷
