Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Wash the potatoes then poke holes throughout them with a fork or knife. Place into the oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until fork tender and cooked through. Remove from the oven and let them cool but don't turn off the oven. Make the caramelized onions while the potatoes are baking. Place 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and cook, stirring often, for 30-45 minutes, or until caramelized and golden brown. Side Note: If the skillet gets dry, add a tablespoon of water or two to prevent the onions from burning. Season with sea salt, to taste then remove from the skillet and set aside. When potatoes are done cooking, allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl; set the empty potatoes halves on a baking sheet. Add cup the cheese, sour cream, bacon, caramelized onions, green onions, butter, sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
