Palestinian workers prepare the vanilla candy known as "Ras El-abed or Shatawi" in the sweet factory , in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip on October 7, 2021. “Ras el Abed” means “Head of Slave”. We would often laugh about how racist the name is. In recent years, the product's name was changed to "Tarboosh," which represents traditional headdress. This product is similar to Tarboosh - thin biscuit shaped marshmallow dipped in chocolate - but keeps the racist name, which was used to refer to black people during the slavery era.
