Instead of the Philly cheesesteak, broccoli and fresh fruit that appeared on the school's lunch calendar, Aramark, the food service company that provides meals to the district, served chicken and waffles with watermelon.

Ok, that's pretty bad.

It’s only bad if you give a damn. It’s getting absurd how much people get triggered over such trifles. It’s food. Who cares if it represents something? Chicken and waffles is good, and I’m white!

This isn’t the first time this has happened...

Why do I think there’s a contract involved in this somewhere.

Notice what happened after the other Aramark incident.

Cui bono...

It represents food that black people traditionally liked. And still do like.

The first rule of cheesesteaks: if it’s called a “Philly cheesesteak,” it isn’t.

I know lots of blacks that eat Fried Chicken and watermelon but I live in the south and everybody Eats Fried Chicken and watermelon, okra too, greens...

But I would never eat chicken with waffles that’s stupid stoner munchies food.

I never understood why watermelon was considered to be “black” food. I have always loved it.
