The problem with smoking brisket is it keeps falling out of the rolling papers.

Isn't that called the Texas Crutch?
Recently went to Cava for the second time. The first time was years ago, shortly after they bought out Zoë’s. We weren’t impressed then, but decided to give them one more chance.
All in all, the pita wraps my Mom & I had were tasty and did NOT skimp on ingredients, so that was a solid win. But the surprise was the eggplant dip we got to go with our pita chips.
While I’m not exactly a fan of eggplant, I do enjoy it prepared certain ways. Cava’s was a surprise. If you’ve never had it, it’s a lot like a chunky salsa, but using eggplant instead of tomatoes.
Ingredients, copy pasted:
ROASTED EGGPLANT,
SUNFLOWER & OLIVE OIL
PARSLEY
GARLIC
ONION
LEMON JUICE
SALT
CITRIC ACID

Cava is kinda big around here (started in DC, IIRC) and their dips are available in local specialty stores. Eggplant is an anathema ingredient for me, but the other dips I've had from them (and in their restaurants) have been tasty.
Eggplant is the veggie that defines the line between those I like and those I don’t.
