I don’t get it either. My grandma was from West Virginia and grew up knowing how to cook and tend gardens. We went to her house for Sunday dinners and fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans (from her garden), macaroni and cheese and salad were all staples. Fried chicken is a major comfort food. I finally learned to make it myself because it’s cheaper...and reminds me of grandma.
Fried chicken is a good thing. A comforting, homey thing. But racist??
Ya see? That's the problem, it's a homey thang
