… for those of you, who have not yet tried these delicious treats!

MIT has fought a debate for the past 7 years over which is better: Latke or Hamantaschen

Two teams of three prestigious MIT professors each, fight in this debate and try to win by scientifically explaining why the one is better than the other!

Chemistry VS Math VS Brain and Cognitive Sciences VS Materials Science….It is hilarious!

TEAM HAMANTASCHEN

TEAM LATKE

Who won, after all this???:

(Team Hamantaschen)

and this

(Team Latke)

PLUS:

Latke are more energyefficient when used in batteries
Hamantashen were the reason for the crash of the Airbus, which safely landed on the Hudson River
Barack Obama is all for Hamantashen
Hamantashen are the new Green

…and lots more…

IT WAS A TIE! So, unfortunately, the debate will have to be held again, NEXT YEAR! ;_)

Best,
Daniel
