Of course it is seen as racist and all the other “……ists” but a black worker in the schools cafeteria chose it.

Anything can be racist if you try hard enough.

Some people NEED everything to be racist and to be perpetually aggrieved Roll Eyes

I hope they can recover. It was probably white kids that were offended anyway.

It wouldn’t matter what was served. Any food items that could be identified with Black history or culture would be called “racist” by somebody.
Collard greens = racist
Black-eyed peas = racist
Ham hocks and beans = racist
Hell, even corn bread = racist.

People who cry racist over things like fried chicken will never stop, so quit worrying about them. It’s been too long since I’ve had good fried chicken…wish I could’ve had lunch there.

Zoeller: My Tiger comment was joke gone awry

AP

Published May 23, 2013

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Fuzzy Zoeller says he's "paid his dues" after his infamous remarks about Tiger Woods ordering fried chicken for the Masters champions dinner, and believes similar comments made by Sergio Garcia will eventually blow over.

Garcia has apologized to Woods after saying at a recent awards dinner in London that he would serve fried chicken if the two rivals had dinner at the U.S. Open. Garcia called it a "silly remark," adding that "in no way was the comment meant in a racist manner."

Still, the comment brought up the stereotype of simple-minded blacks obsessed with chicken and watermelon — a stereotype that dates back more than a century.

It also brought back memories of a similar comment that Zoeller made during the 1997 Masters, when Woods was romping to victory. Himself a former champion, Zoeller said on camera that he hoped Woods wouldn't order fried chicken for the dinner honoring past champions the following year.

Fired chicken and collards with beans and cornbread. It's time to fight if people start attacking those items. I'm white as snow but I'll sit for seconds on those items. Smile Racist my ass. That's just good cookin'.
