Depression Cooking : Jewish Version

[3filbert]

I don't think this is a put down of anybody or anything....it is just funny. Clara would be the first to laugh.....in her last video you can hear some guy belching in the background and they left that in.

[Mariaxxx99]

That's so mean you think that this is funny well newsflash it's not now stop making fun of a 97year old and get a life

[SeasickBill]

Poor taste and not funny. You should rethink your material or at least think it out first! I mean how funny did you think this would be? What next? Fat, black and blonde jokes?

[thetruthergirls]

@SeasickBill A lot of comedy is in extremely poor taste. Most of it, actually. I get to make fun of Jews because I'm half Jewish.

[SeasickBill]

@thetruthergirls Yeah but there is funny poor taste and there is stupid poor taste. I know you can be funnier come on! Give it to me!

[copking1]

not even a good spoof

[jeffbriggs1987]

i would be offended too guys but i am too busy laughing.

[mnkfdl]

Did you get inspired from this one?when I saw it I was, Ruth Clezmer, the real one!

[MsKati69]

that sick making fun of a 93yr old

[TheEunichorn]

@ people freaking out about making fun of Clara...

You all need to just relax and not be so sensitive about things.

[Coby50]

Hahahahaaaaaaaaa you go girl!

I love this.

It's depressing.

LOL LOL

Makes me remember a song from Keith Green. 'So you wanna go back to Egypt'

MD9W61KZYxk

I think you'll like it.

[xenbay]

I've never seen the show you're parodying but it's really funny!!!

[1968tbb]

Very funny. The world needs humor. I think if Clara saw this she would get a laugh out of it too.

[MrJhnsnjjkustoms]

OMG!! That looks and sounds the way my great grandmother talked and act...that was funny..good job!

[canids]

@truthgirls. Put what spin you like on this, you're taking the piss out out the woman. You make reference to Clara in your notes on the video. You should have more respect for her. Shame on you.

[thetruthergirls]

@canids I only mention her to give her credit because this was inspired by her. No shame here. If comedians had to be politically correct, we'd be severely limited in our material.

[Blueyedblondeful]

@thetruthergirls

you're not a comedian at all. you are a wannabee with dull recipes and a shit home.

[k9nick]

Put what ever spin you like on it. You're being disrespectful to a wonderful old lady. You should be ashamed of yourself.

[thetruthergirls]

@k9nick I'm sick of hearing that. Why does everyone think this is something against Clara? How about this is making fun of my Jewish grandmother? Or maybe it's just making fun of Ruth Klezmer? Jeez you people are so sensitive.

[Roxtartumbler44]

your soo mean! gosh! shes 95 give her a freakin break! its so rude that no one thinks its funny /:

[wtoma972]

It's not funny, really!

See you in age of 95!

[DENBEATH]

This is hilarious. My grandparents came from Italy but had immigrated to Pittsburgh just before the Depression. My mother use to tell me how the family of 10 would share one chicken for dinner (meat as a garnish). The babushka; hahahahahahaha Thanks for a well needed laugh!!!!

[TheJUNGLESURFER]

@DENBEATH a chicken dies for just one meal

[Indexanimisermo]

Awesome! I can relate to this so much. I sometimes go into being my Baba from Croatia with the Babushka and the broken English. She was so amazing and so funny and I miss her. You definitely have this 'Ruth Klezmer' down pat. I'm impressed. What fun! Keep it goin'. You break me up.

[shantaleena]

Lol! That dress and that babushka? are perfect! Not that I know, I'm asian from Hawaii-but very believable to me. I like Clara and you did a great spoof

[noldorian86]

damn u suck

[bigsammieking]

this made me laugh

[morg9900]

agreed you are extremely disrespectful!!!!!!

[Gavinwr75]

best way to beat depression is pump weights and burn fat.

[saiyanwill]

Wow, this Ruth is turning me on.

[Lauramariesongs]

You're very comical...subbed. :)

[TheUnitedNewsNetwork]

Parody's rock, Your a funny lady!

[jackson22339]

youtube.com/watch?v=jmKR6evZRQ­Q

[TorchWhoCanada]

how dare you make fun of her you asshole!!!!!!!!!!!

[thetruthergirls]

@TorchWhoCanada Somebody asked me to do a parody. It's not making fun of her. It's making fun in general.

[SBusbyyy]

@TorchWhoCanada Yeah thats how I'm feeling right now.

[AwesomeA111]

Mean.

[getemall69]

fuck yea russian cooking

[TotalGamer1]

SOME WAY I ENDED UP ON THE CHICK SIDE OF YOUTUBE .!!!AHHHHH

[leasecleaning]

I would not eat that food- too many sock references

[The911Shaman]

You're too funny. I can't believe you did this.

Clara is a gem. The Old Country is often refers to Sicily. "But, I'll take Poland" - Adolf Hitler. " :-D

[mikey196111]

Thats a good video. I was just wondering...what country is "The Old Country?" cuz i'm from the UK and have heard Americans talking about the old country and what accent is that?

[jimdog1964]

This popped up in my "recommended" list about 4 days ago. I finally watched it and have to say it was hilarious. Good stuff...

[shanana000]

I watch this over and over...it cracks me up!!!...I think you should make more. Love your accent...who are you impersonating?

[thetruthergirls]

@shanana000 Ruth is a character I do from time to time and she's an Eastern European Jew. And this was done on request that I spoof 'Depression Cooking with Clara'. So I did the Ruth Klezmer version of Depression Cooking.

[ElginPocketwatch]

@thetruthergirls your extremely disrespectful

[thetruthergirls]

@ElginPocketwatch If a comedian restricted him or herself to writing comedy that was disrespectful to no-one and completely PC, there wouldn't be much left to work with. That's the nature of comedy.

[noahandangel]

I'm scared

[bubushkinator]

....what the hell....is this?....

[pixelcomet]

lol ur nuts :)

[pogmotho1n]

You should be on the stage...oh wait you already are

[johnlvs2run]

Why aren't you smiling.

[ramona7609]

In my day, we invented the expression 'on the rag'. We didn't have kotex pads! We actually used rags!! lol

[BoKnowsEntertainment]

But what's for breakfast - or should I have to ask?

[giopaol]

Se ci conoscessimo saprei come tirarti  su :)

[america4hemp]

YOU SURE ARE A SEXY SEINOR CITIZEN !

[bimbo99]

Luxury! We were so poor we had to eat sand, and that was after we had worked a 26 hour day (for no pay) and been whipped within an inch of lives by our father!

[alleycatalog]

love it!  what did he say at the end?

[Tressco]

Dajum, hot mama!

You should definitely date Yeshmin Blechin!

Exact same exuberant sexiness!!



*TOUCH* - *SHHHHH* - "Ouch!"

[wateryskipper]

I love you Ruth, you are my number one heroine..... xxx

[Evdiliotis]

Tha was some good acting skills there. Ruth ;)

[Mariposakisses]

ouy ve that was so depressing,im allergic to lentils..motso ball soup next time please,and locks with cream cheese capers and bagels.oh i feel better just texting the words.shalom

[DustyWiyrick]

Same dinner as yesterday lol

[luwdmke]

Hi ! Ruth nice to see you again. I think it would be great if Sonia could get you and BarbarianRebellion together on her radio show for an interview. I think it would be a real hoot. LOL

[WulfBand]

OMG, This is scary, you look like my Grandma :) hehehe

[shartne]

man I hope it don't get this bad! what are lentils?? I ve never ate them or even seen them until this video and I cant quite make them out.

[tenagliac]

Oy ! Such a straight face already. How ever do you do it ?

I love cooking videos.

[finefilth]

great  impersonation job!!

[foxyleemac]

LOL I want lentils and rice with Ruth!

[BarbarianRebellion]

lol babe. you can come and dance on my grave first because I'm pretty sure I'm gonna beat you there.

[spilka987]

hahaa i love watching this as this lightens my day, "you'll be glad when I'm gone, you'll dance on my grave" -- Ruth is like mommma

[crossofwar]

you have a gift. Thanks for sharing. all the smiles you give away. you have the real wealth, what is truly of value ~ when a man laughs...is he not a king? and a woman...is she not a queen? We cannot always share in another's tears---but not so with laughter....perhaps even more than hunger, a smile brings people together. for it feeds the heart

[mcap52]

Hey Ruth,you are invited to cook at my house anytime.I am used to "depression cooking",it actually has a "rich"flavor to it.

[haarpcloud911]

That was funny.... and it's even funnier that there is a serious depression cooking woman named Clara, and goes under DepressionCooking right here on this page...

You should sell those bits to SNL, they could definitely use some comedy...lol

[AlmightyJerk]

Are we making fun of genuine lil 'ol ladies now?

watch?v=3OPQqH3YlHA&NR=1

[TheSimpleMark]

hey I'm a French American.. LOL

[meadowlassie]

Absolutely phenomenal! You're a riot.

Now, all you gotta do is copyright your own Ruth Klezmer cookbook. Then you can open your own sock knitting factory and cloth & feed us poor people.

We are in need of a new, cheap recipe idea each week, so hopefully there will be more Depression Cooking with Ruth tutorials.

"How to feed a family of 4 on $11.00 a month food stamp budget"

How about some home gardening tips?

What a blast. Thanks Ruth-Sonia

[monsterrun]

le québecois typique à la fin. lol

[Banez1991]

O_o

[godseyeview]

wow this was good.

[theylive1984rm]

aluminum

[theylive1984rm]

i never use aluminum cook wear it strait out contaminates food with aluminum Oxides every time it is heated

only cook with cast iron or stainless steal

[greenback001]

excellent performance, as expected. but aside, I noticed your pots and pans were aluminum. I must inform you how toxic they are. aluminum has a lower melting point than steel or iron. a little bit of iron is good. aluminum is always bad. a good and solid cast iron pan and stainless steel pots or better are a bit more expensive but they'll last much longer, plus the food tastes better. anyway, just had to tell you that.

.

once again, excellent performance

[captvanhalen]

lentils and rice ... lentils and rice ...

Can we have rice and lentils tomorrow instead? :)

[LoneRaven01]

lol! I love your videos!

[frauklavier]

I want Ruth to cook for me.

[DrRonPaul2012]

you and Clara should get together

[D33Lux]

You're great! Wasn't depressing at all, it was actually kinda hot, you standing by the stove in that sexy dress cooking some exotic cuisine lentils and rice. lol

[tyronebiggums3]

.

Lentils and rice... sounds good. Can I have seconds??

.

[samuelgreenavitchski]

crazyness gone to seed

[Thefreedomlink]

! Oy vey now I am depressed!

[VincentVonGoat]

I wanna win a date with Ruth!

[2009mixmax]

what did the man say at the back ground?

awsome though

[changling21]

hahaha

[JMBSM61]

Pretty sure food production is very under control these days. Whether that is for the better or worse time will tell. The world is too overpopulated.

[anastasia81472]

Brilliant

[DREDD2001AD]

lol Bubble love XXX

[WhereIsTruth]

lol...what an attractive look Sonia.

very believable. :)

[IWannabeJew]

I didn't understand what was being said in the punchline.

And Ruth, long sleeves! You're turning me on with all that skin you're showing. People will talk!

[thetruthergirls]

@IWannabeJew He said the equivalent of, ;where are my friggin lentils goddammit?'

But it doesn't matter so much. What we thought was funny was that it turns out I am making this for some French guy.

[thetruthergirls]

@thetruthergirls And those are French Canadian religious swear words. So it's a French Canadian Catholic guy that she cooks for.

[IWannabeJew]

@thetruthergirls hehehe

[DustyWiyrick]

@thetruthergirls Same dinner as yesterday lol

[TorchWhoCanada]

@thetruthergirls tabarnack is fuck just saying

[XM0R1NX]

trop drole

[theeastwatch]

pretty funny although I must say bring back normal looking Sonia - Shes much easier on the eyes, and depression lady reminds me of a creepy old neighbor I used to have...

-TEW

[gsamborska]

So how McDonald's menu will look like during depression? I bet the Big Mac will be a half size and... this is the very positive aspect of depression in America, no?

[5starrater1]

@gsamborska - in England McD's has a 'pound saver menu'. For us poor suckers.

[singlaprety12]

@gsamborska they will be rich, everyone would be eatingn there!

[anyonefindAMERICA]

shlepping is all you get, to shlep

[WilAzzamEdison]

Can you do one on "Cooking with flu shots" like how you position the frying pan on the person having the sciatic reaction...lol

[WilAzzamEdison]

NICE,,,, never go wrong wit rice

[erendili]

Elles sont où mes tabarnak de lentilles ? lol

[KnowledgeAddicted]

part about dancing on grave was pretty funny

[larnem]

Well done!

[happyface2012]

I love Ruth's storytelling ! Where in the world did you find that dress? I love it! :)

[usergently]

Lentilles, riz et dépression!...Yummy! *****

[wdcsucks1]

5*+

[mike6459]

ditch your aluminum pots

[nathuwjohn]

hahahahahaha

[enslavetherich]

Free food is everywhere.. :) Maybe add some of the Common Dandelion to your next recipe? The leaves can be eaten, and yes I've had it several times before, it doesn't taste bad either.

Over here in the Netherlands, the fields are full of them..

[singlaprety12]

@enslavetherich dandlions are very healthy I heard.

[roge69charger]

You remind me of some of my neighbors, They shot Crossing Delancey, back in the 80's where I reside, Except the Hall Ways, Weren't the same one's where I lived they shot those in a Public Project.

I'm now flooded with Yuppies, And Celebs, But, We still have a few of you around,

Great Acting, And, I know quite a bit about it. Studied Acting at one time.

Great Job! Sonia, Keep up the Good Work!

Your Friend Roger LES NYC.

[FishBowlEndTimes]

@thetruthergirls I love you Sonia :) You make me smile - you remind me of my lovely mother :)

[R3alitySh0ck]

#LOL

[PatrioticFront]

I remember the stories my grandparents told me of the depression.

How my grandfather had to drop out of school, to never go back, in 8th grade to go get a full time job to help provide for the family.

Having to save EVERYTHING because you might be able to re use or sell it.

I think most amerikans would cry like babies if you took away their cable or cell phones.

[DEMCAD]

LOL. This is great!

[fatpius]

hahaha, you crack me up
