Latkes Versus Hamantaschen

At MIT, Scientific experiments were done to prove the superiority of Latkes over Hamantaschen:

"...In a recent experiment, Robison proved the property of enhanced transmission of musical sound through hamantaschen.

“I lured unsuspecting grad students to my room with promises of a lucrative UROP,” Robison admitted. Ordinary foam ear pads were replaced with two latkes or two hamantaschen, and Oreos and buttermilk pancakes served as controls. Latkes were unanimously preferred, as the hamantaschen caused “pastry crumbs and poppy seed bits to bounce around inside the subject’s ear canal.” ..."
