      The old adage on youtube:
      "You know where the Filipinos are because they will be introducing themselves the moment there is a Filipino reference in a video."

    my family classifies kneidlach as either sinkers or floaters. I prefer floaters. If you add a bit of seltzer to your kneidlach, they will puff up when they hit the hot soup. Very light and delicious!
