I Hate Stereotypes

[youtube=https://youtube.com/watch?v=KgyU3loFD9E]

It's 2019 and shaming another culture's food is still a thing on American TV.

I’ve never seen that show. I didn’t really see it as shaming so much as cowardice. LOL They didn’t make them look very bright, but even within different regions of the US, there are foods I’d be hesitant to dive into. I’m not super adventurous with food. We do have a chef here in Minnesota named andrew zimmern who has several shows about foods from different countries and he has a very adventuresome spirit. I like his shows.

@novembermoon No way! 😄 I have to smile at that. I think it must feel nice to be able to do something so simple and “normal” for lack of a better word as watch a show together. 🙂

@JustNik haha. Yes, it made our day. I almost cheered when I learnt that he was able to watch it there at the same time as I did here. 😊

I see this and I wonder if those stupid bimbos are real or actors faking it. I can believe they are, and if they are actors, the fact they agree to do something so shallow does not make things any better.

This video should be kept in mind to answer the 'why do people hate America?' questions.

@novembermoon Exactly. It is the derisive, arrogant attitude that is not acceptable. I totally understand and support reacting when a massive influx of foreigners alter your traditions of any kind. But going to another country to make fun of them is unacceptable arrogance and a sign that the idea of the empire is still in their minds.

@Cierzo it shows a lot when people here write 'It's just food'. Basically with certain ones, it is Impossible to even engage. 😓 I think 'respect' is not a word in their dictionary.

@novembermoon It is the attitude, you cannot go to a foreign country to do that. They should go to some city in Saudi Arabia and make the same with Islam, and see if they laugh too.

I would be fine once they brought out the vegan options.

quid pro quo

mock the USA, we'll mock you in return... 🤔
LOL ! You were under the impression no one makes fun of U.S. food ? (And nobody’s stopped calling Americans “fat” in 2019, [b]either[/b].)

@bijouxbroussard hahaha. At least not on national TV 😂

It is just food. They shame ours too. Lol

@JaggedLittlePill I should say all cultures shame other cultures food. I don't see the big deal.
novembermoon · 51-55
I see. That's how you make America great again. 😂@JaggedLittlePill

@novembermoon oh. Ok. Whatever you say.
