Paul Krugman: An arugula confession

Via Ezra Klein, I learn that I'm a cultural elitist.I thought I was a man of the people: I don't actually much care for lattes (I actually like black filter coffee). But Newsweek says that it's about arugula versus beer -- and although I'm fine with beer, I happen to love arugula (especially with some shaved parmesan and good olive oil).

Maybe if I acted British, and called it rocket instead?

I really ought to call it "rocket," because I can't say "arugula" without hearing the horn on Jack Benny's Maxwell.

No, I'm not that old, but some things just stick with you. "Ahhhh-ROO-gula!"
