Moichandising!
Mel Brooks had it right in his hit 80’s movie Spaceballs - it’s all about moichandising! Now, thanks to the folks at Cafe Press, you can support The Jew & The Carrot in style.
The beautiful “Eat, be Satisfied, and Bless” decal (designed by The Jew & The Carrot contributor, Anna Stevenson) comes on coffee mugs, aprons, journals, T-shirts, tote bags, and throw pillows. They’re great for birthday gifts, mishloach manot, or for your own stylish foodie self. Click here to find out more!

Lone Starr: Yogurt. What is this place? What is it that you do here?
Yogurt: Moichandising.
Barf: Merchandising? What’s that?
Yogurt: Moichandising. Come! I’ll show you. [to the Dinks] Open up this door.
[Yogurt walks over to a wall filled with Spaceballs merchandise.]
Yogurt: Moichandising! Moichandising! Moichandising! Where the real money from the movie is made! Spaceballs: the T-shirt, Spaceballs: the Coloring Book [holds up a Transformers comic book], Spaceballs: the Lunchbox, Spaceballs: the Breakfast Cereal. Spaceballs: the Flame Thrower… [fires a short blast from flame thrower]
Dinks: Oooooohhhh!
Yogurt: The kids love this one. And last, but not least, Spaceballs: the Doll, me.
[Yogurt squeezes the doll, which says “May the Schwartz be with you!”]
Yogurt: Adorable.

February 19th, 2008 at 4:18 pmThanks Tovah - unfortunately the apron only comes in white. But just like your favorite cookbook with all the sauce stains on it, a white apron gets better with love and use. :)
Good call, Ben! There are now two options to purchase Organic cotton T-shirts made in the USA.

February 19th, 2008 at 6:00 pmOkie doke - so it turns out Cafe Press is updating something on their website. In the meantime, all new products that were added today aren’t showing up. But the organic/USA-made T-shirts should show up in the next couple of days.
Keep checking back!

March 12th, 2008 at 6:35 amI got my tote bag! I love it! It is going to be perfect at the farmer’s market, and until then, it will be perfect for store-shopping! And my postcards are going to be So Cool for Purim Mishlo’ach Manot (and I’m generally not such a cool person…)
Thank you thank you thank you! -

April 13th, 2008 at 7:29 pmDitto on the apron color. I’d prefer black, but may get this one anyhow for when I work at Kosherfest! I got the black T-shirt. Maybe they will make a black apron one day.

April 13th, 2008 at 11:52 pmI’ll keep everyone posted if the apron becomes available in other colors…though, the way I cook (meaning very sloppily), it wouldn’t take long before my white apron turned into a rainbow!
