How Much Should a Hamantaschen Weigh?

The mini poppy hamantaschen at Moishe's Bake Shop (the one on 2nd ave bet. 6th and 7th) are really great. Very traditional approach, but done well.

I happen to like the yeast hamentashen filled with leqvar (prune butter). The ones at Ostrovitzky's Bakery on Ave J in Midwood are great!

Okay, I'll admit that I've never shopped there, but this would be a good reason to start!

That'd have to be brie. Baked. Bliss.
I've admired the Zingerman's catalogue for years, but I've never gotten anything from them....but I'd really love to!

I'd have to say horseradish cheddar (though I'm also a big fan of brie and muenster).
