“The point of the white people's meal is to learn what it feels like to be dead, but I've taken two bites and it was so bad it made me realize how alive I am."

These are hilarious. But there’s a tidbit in there about the “996” work thing in China. 9am-9pm 6 days a week. That’s terrible. How do you do literally anything else?

This funny as hell. i am a white person who grew up in a household where the only flavour enhancing items we used were salt, ketchup and packet gravy.

"what it feels like to be dead" I feel this in my malnourished bones haha

“Lunch of suffering”. I’ve definitely had a few of those desperation meals at my desk.

Feels like yet another article that just makes you want to get upset with another group of people.

I don't take that so serious, for me it's hilarious :-)

yeah in general of all the international banter, food banter seems like the most harmless, most funny, and generally least mean-spirited of the lot

I’d say that that applies to regional foods as well with barbecue being the notable exception. The BBQ wars are still being fought to this day. Everyone knows eastern North Carolina vinegar based pulled pork is the best. Don’t @ me, the state of Texas. Lol

This is must be an argument conducted while talking with your mouth full. “Mwafmuh…Ours is better. Pass the slaw.”

White people have a rich history of pairing things that don't belong to be eaten together. (see: ham banana hollandaise)
