Profile says they’re Brazilian, lots of Sephardim/Arabs in Brazil.

nice to see people learning portuguese. I'm not sepharadi, it's just that Brazilian food in general has some influence from northern africa and the middle east (look up acarajé, it's basically a falafel made by the black community since slavery)
