vegan breakfasts (was Haven't been around much), with cat p.s.

[Guest guest]

One of my favorites is a veggie fry mix with hash browns. I normally

do oatmeal or cereal with soymilk because they're quick and easy, but

I've also done tofu scrambles with fake sausage as well as foole (the

middle eastern fava beans with olive oil, lemon, and herbs), and rice

with tamari in a hurry too, with a nice oj at the side, all delicious.

 

I don't think the narrower breakfast scope is by any means uniquely

American, you'd find it in Europe too.

 

Regarding the cat legend, snopes addresses it at

http://www.snopes.com/horrors/food/chinese.htm; they do point out that

cats and dogs are, if infrequently, eaten on the mainland, but good

observation, grrl. One of my favorite Asian restaurants was a

buddhist-type vegan place, they did a great variety of entrees. But

not to suggest it wasn't a funny song ;-)

I don't think racism is funny. But that might just be me.

reppy, it's not " racism " to whether events occur or cultural cuisine

questions. you must feel chris rock, who does social satire

brilliantly, is the biggest " racist " of all, unless you permit special

exception by category. perhaps political correctness is more than a

legend.

 

kindly get over it and let us return to recipes and the like :-/

I don't watch Chris Rock's comedy (I'm really not a tv-watcher) so I can't

comment on it. I've seen him in a few movies, though, but that doesn't really

say anything about him.

 

I'm really not sure what your first sentence means. Is English perhaps your

second language?

my native english is fine, just sometimes the text select goes funny

in the edit box and i delete more than intended, you have to allow for

possibilities like that. general point was probably that people tend

to hear any kind of mention or discussion of cultural differences and

jump all over it as racism, look at how white people get crucified if

they so little as mention, let alone venture to discuss, the dreaded

n-word, and people know they can always get manipulation mileage out

of it. there's less maturity out there imho than we assume, but we

probably just will not agree on this one.

It's more than a little ethnocentric for the meat-eating Americans to

imply that eating cats or dogs is somehow worse than eating cows,

pigs, and chickens.

I agree! People can be so stupid and blind that way. Most people in the US

think that it's ok to eat cows or chickens, but that eating a cat or a dog would

be cruel and disgusting. Well, I think eating a cow or a chicken is cruel and

disgusting.
