Philistines!
So I'm eating my falafel outside the (where else?) Amsterdam Falafelshop on Friday night after the DCist happy hour with the Füd crew when a couple walks up to our general area.
Dude: What are you eating?
Me: Falafel. It's good.
Dude: What's falafel?
Me: Ground up, spiced and fried chickpea balls in a pita with various savory toppings.
Dude: Chickpeas? Ewwwww.
Me: You know, Garbanzo beans. [like the mother of a toddler] They're realllllly good!
[Dude starts walking away]
Me: They also have chicken schwarma!
Dude: Wha?
Me: Piled chicken roasting on a big spinning stick.
Needless to say, no sale on the schwarma either.

You should have gone for the gold by recommending the lamb cock shishkabob. "The Real Original Jumbo Slice!"
