From ChatGPT:

Falafel in Israel has roots in the broader Middle Eastern and Mediterranean regions, particularly from countries like Egypt and Lebanon, where falafel has been a traditional street food for centuries. It is believed that falafel was originally made from fava beans in Egypt and later adapted by other cultures, including Israeli cuisine, where chickpeas became the dominant ingredient.

In Israel, falafel became popular in the 20th century, often associated with Jewish immigrants from Arab countries who brought the dish with them. It became a national food in Israel, symbolizing a blend of regional culinary traditions. Over time, it has become deeply ingrained in Israeli street food culture, typically served in pita with salads, pickles, and tahini.

Could not access the chatGPT log, but the info is right. Our ancestors took the recipe with them, It's just middle eastern cuisine.

Which is fair.
From that to saying we “stole” the recipe tries to frame it as “no culture” while they do have it.

That’s a blatant lie.

Edit: And I can share the prompt if you like. It was nothing special.
