Does anyone know how that watermelon stereotype began because in the South both blacks and whites are watermelon eating fools!
And for obvious reasons-gets kind of hot in the summer down there and a cold slice of watermelon is just the right item to have on the picnic menu!

You said picnic! What are you, some kind of racist? .

(A little background... A few years back the race hustlers were maintaining that picnic was a racist term, because to whites it meant a party where they would go "Pick a N _ _ _ _ _" to lynch. I kid you not.)

I'm not sure why saying black people like to eat watermelon is racist.

My neighbors are Mexican and beans are on the menu every night.

I'm German and love to eat kraut. So what?
