i see we have some mcDonald's fans here. okay, then i feel safe to admit that i really love their fish sandwiches and chocolate shakes. so much pleasure for so little money! it sure beats eating that pale-faced, scanty, organic nonsense
My 16 year old works at McDonalds. Its her first job and she loves the responsibility, but then she's always been responsible. I LOVE the Fillet o' Fish sandwiches and chocolate shakes also. However we all cook homemade at home about 5 days out of the week. YES we eat fried chicken, but maybe twice a month...I'm partial to baked or boiled chicken myself. Watermelon? YES we eat that too but its not because we're black, its because we love sweet fruit.
Since we're on the subject, why is it so funny that there are blacks who eat fried chicken? Why the buckets and bucked eyed pictures? And why is eating watermelon a bad thing? That is the purpose of having watermelon, right...to eat it?
It's just a sereotype, Erica. Nothing to get upset over, like Aussies with beer and meat pies or Pommies with fish & chips.
A poster (I forget who) was telling a story here about a black guy he works with. This black guy apparently lived in a mostly white building. He got into an argument with his wife over the phone 'coz she wanted him to bring home a watermelon. He refused, claiming she should have told him before he left home so he could have taken a large sportsbag to hide the melon in.
Apparently he hated the idea of walking through his building with a watermelon and looking like a negro stereotype.
BTW: I'm surprised you posted that you eat fried chicken and watermelon without saying " and this is for YOU, Newman!".
