Most of the time this results because they let the black staff or the mostly black kids choose the meals for black history month.

They choose stuff like this, the menu gets publicized and a bunch of white people get mad.

It's all so tiresome.

It occurred to me that they probably serve this on the regular because kids like it. Some large majority of the year that is fine, but one day or one month a year it's bad. Somebody should put that on the calendar of the food service. Cuz Mexicans aren't gonna remember otherwise.

You know, those are actually staples for a reason right?

Freed slaves living off a small bit of land typically found that chickens and watermelon were excellent foods. They can both grow and live on rather shitty soil and ground, watermelon acts like a weed and chickens dgaf about basically anything. When you don't have fresh water around, watermelon is actually a good source of hydration. Chickens also make eggs, and you can raise chickens pretty cheaply.

Its also just basic Southern staples. Like the majority of "black culture" things, its just repackaged stuff that everyone in the South does, and the rest of the country just assumes its super special black people stuff because White Southerners only exist to be racist and feed on evil and have no culture of their own.

Because the most common element is that these are poor people food. The poor negro throwing all the slop from his table to make a po'boy is in the exact same predicament as the poor coonass or hillbilly throwing slop into a pot to make a gumbo.

Yeah, no disagreement there. It's poor people food.

In fact, all "black culture" is re-packaged Ulster Scott culture.

Thomas Sowell actually has talked about how black culture is just Scots-Irish culture from 1865.

Yup, that's what I was citing.

If they weren't confined to the urban jungle these days and incapable of surviving without the government, they would still be raising chickens. It's just a good idea in general. See: Mexicans.

Im willing to bet that a free range "homegrown" chicken is better for you too than the factory farm chemical/drug filled ones. Probably taste much better too.

Those niggers ate the ass out of that free food before they complained about it.

Regarding the offensive omission of hot sauce, Aramark said in a statement to NBC News that the situation "never should have happened" and apologized for what it called an "inexcusable mistake."

Students at Nyack Middle School in New York were served chicken and waffles with a choice of watermelon for dessert on the first day of Black History Month on Wednesday, according to WABC-TV. The school's administration and its food vendor, Aramark, apologized after students and parents pointed out the racial stereotypes the menu reinforced.

Every black person in the country has a strong opinion on which fried chicken place is the best and will fistfight you for suggesting a different one.

Which is a trait I share, because I will murder a man for trying to offer me whatever garbage Church's offers and will pay top dollar for Popeyes any day.

Every black owned restaurant I've ever been to has had chicken and waffles on the menu and it's some of the best food you'll ever eat.

Maybe these people need to examine their lives and focus on something more important than constantly getting offended

That's a big chunk of the problem. Many of them have nothing important or significant in their lives, so they resort to shrieking about minor things to try to give their lives meaning.
