Now a poboy is not even cheap it cost about the same as a restaurant burger smh
rainbow dash@ceilingtwerker
thinking how we legit have a sandwich called a poboy (poor boy) and it’s meant to be cheap and also the best sandwich you will ever eat

i love the random excuses i hear my mom make up to get off the phone w someone

fun fact this is why a lot of traditional afro peruvian food is made out of “undesirable” organ meats or rlly cheap ingredients (still extremely delicious)

black americans made soul food out of slave scraps so this doesn’t actually move me at all

a lot of "British food bad" boils down to classism
English
@x93_Alex jambalaya, gumbo, red beans and rice, hush puppies like i could go on and on. mind you, we systemically had our original cultures erased and still created all those things on top of making colonizer food better. so yall have no excuse 😭
English
@ceilingtwerker Still waiting for an original Soul Food dish was created by Black Culture, not just taken from other countries with a bit of extra seasoning.
So far we have Fried Chicken (Scottish), Mac and Cheese (Italian), all Italian food too by one user.
Denial is real.

@FULL96069165 @BornTooSin honestly never been impressed by it bc i think cornmeal battered fried fish washes that beer battered nonsense but hey that’s just me

@ceilingtwerker TIL! always wondered what a “shrimp po’boy” was at the american-style restaurant i worked at. Very interesting piece of culinary history there.
English
@ceilingtwerker @fyeahnix Wanna compare Michelin Star restaurants? World renowned chefs? Italian food alone?
No one's dressing fancy for a Soul Restaurant, love.
English
@x93_Alex even if what ur saying is true ur basically j saying black ppl make ur own ppls food better than u. wanna try again?
English
@ceilingtwerker Is that why all soul food is just Eurocentric but with a dry cupcake on the side?
English
@Nolaspeaks_ is there rly non white british food tho..like their national dish is butter chicken lol
English
@ceilingtwerker Tbf most British food we see are the white ppl creations. It’s the same has white ppl here
English
@x93_Alex @ceilingtwerker What's Eurocentric about using seasoning?
English
@BadEmpanadx first off i’ve seen u acting nasty w a lot of black ppl on here so i don’t believe ur asking a genuine question rn. do you think latin american countries should’ve had legally enforced “whitening the race” social programs?
English
@ceilingtwerker Genuine question: do you think Latin American countries should have had legally enforced racial segregation?
English
they tryna rebrand blanqueamiento as revolutionary 😭
