Wow. I didn't understand much of it without a dictionary in hand but it's a nice little morsel to digest!

 Loved it! It made me crack up.  I think I will be a falafelist too - seems to be the best thing, these days.  You have a wonderful grasp of the English language, and it shows in the way you play with words. 

And fish-fin chips? Did that happen? *YUCK*

 Hey, I really liked what you've written.  Reading it, I can really feel how this just flowed out of you.  It's great too that you have that talent where you can play with language so easily.  Reading aloud makes parts of it ring: "philologist," "philosopher," then you're jump to "falafelist."  I like the contrast you set up; but couldn't someone be a falafelist philosopher?

You're last line "Please aquit me on charges of alliteration. I'm sorry for my sibilance," does a nice job of explaining a big part of your work, and I like how you incorporate the terms' functions of it into the actual line.  However, I think you can add more alliteration and sibilance to body.  The alliteration is marked, but I found the sibilance lacking.  You've shown that you have a knack for the sounds of language, and if you can add more of each to the body to further support the last line I think "Falafel Philosophy" will benefit a lot!

 I loved your piece. Like the others have said, your use of alliteration is wonderful. Your piece made me  laugh, but I had a hard time figuring out the connection between philosophy and food other than philosophy and falafel sound a lot a like and then falafel went on from there with the other types of food. I do not think I have anything else that really struck out at me to comment about. I think though, if you wanted to, you could extend it and turn it into a decent monologue. It definitely has the tone that most monologues have and it is well written enough that it could go in that direction. Kudos for an awesome piece.

I'm sorry for my sibilance

that line is pretty genius. and by the way you should at least try a falafel, i mean their way better then fins (not that i've had them, but i have eaten my share of fish)

good stuff will read more soon

peaceeeeee

This was so fun to read!  I wish it were a few paragraphs longer.

I can't exactly say I'm dying to sample the delicacy either -- no more than I'm ravenously hungry for roe or starving for sardines.

This line could be sharpened if you dropped "hungry," so it would read, "--no more than I'm ravenous for roe or starving for sardines."

I'd like to know why you chose "falafelist."  Like others have said, I'm not sure how this went from a piece about philologists and philosophers to falafel, roe, and fried fish fins.

I like the alliteration in the last two sentences, but the tone is so much different from the first paragraph.  For me, it interrupted the flow of the first part.  At the end, I wanted to tell the narrator, "No!  Don't apologize!"

All the alliteration toward the end made this sound like a rap in my head.  Maybe that's just me, though!
