  6. Comments: I substituted 6 ounces of Nova Lox (purchased at neighborhood grocery store in 3-oz pkgs.) for some Jewish guests which stayed here. A couple of months later, I won entrance into a new Jewish cookbook called "Eat! Enjoy! The 101 Best Jewish Recipes in America," that is now on the shelves of major bookstores.
