During a discussion on education and values on the program "The Winning Kitchen" last Wednesday, chef Ruti Brodo shared a deeply personal and critical view of her religious upbringing. The conversation began when actor Yogev Yiftach, who was participating with his wife, actress Gaia Gurvich, revealed that the couple had considered enrolling their son in a religious educational framework. Yiftach stated that they initially believed religious education would be the best for their son, but ultimately decided on a secular school.

Brodo, known for her candid remarks, responded forcefully to Yiftach's comments. "Religious education is one of the greatest injustices that happened to me in my life," she declared to the other participants. This is not the first time Brodo has spoken about her past. In a previous season, she clarified, "I come from a religious home, I don't hate religion," but strongly criticized the phenomenon of "teshuva" (returning to religious observance). She expressed concern that parents whose children leave their upbringing to enter a path she perceives as "brainwashing" are losing their children's souls.
