I truly thought we were going to get through Christmas with zero racism. Then grandma and grandpa came over. Luckily I was able to steer the conversation away pretty quickly, but it always puts a damper on things.
We just had some mild racism too: "There's just too many ethnic restaurants in this town. Why can't we just have American food?!" "There's a Denny's down the street..."
Wait until they find out that Denny's serves crepes.
This makes my head want to explode. I grew up in a white ass family of wealthy-ish English descent and nobody knew what the hell good food was unless it was an expensive steak or fancy seafood which don’t really need much cooking skill to be yummy, it is inherently yummy you just eat it. Ughhh the food I grew up on was tasteless, soulless crap and every time I have good Mexican, Thai, Indian or some other type of food I am deeply thankful I don’t live in a barren wasteland of uninspired shit food. The fact that people actively desire that blows my mind.
White american food is fucking trash, I mean Italian food is good but Italians weren’t even let into the white people club until very recently so that barely even counts. England should just have their cooking license revoked. Choose the type of boiled mush you want and either add salt or pepper but not both because that would be too spicey! Don’t even get me started on the inability of white American cuisine to comprehend the concept of a meal without meat.
Yeah.. English desserts can be pretty nice though. I grew up much the same and the only cherished family recipes we have are desserts: Trifle, bannoffee pie, persimmon pudding, cherries jubilee, custard pie with lemon curd, summer berry fool, toffee cake, hard sauce. Yorkshire pudding made with beef drippings is a delightful savory dish.
