If I go somewhere and it has crap customer service, I'm not going back. I could never go buying food from somewhere where the cooks and shyt feel resentful towards me.
Hood Chinese Joints and their effect on Black Culture

I stopped eating at Chinese take-out places not because of bad customer service, but because that shyt is not good for you

It's also poorly made and gross. I don't know how people can even eat it.
I could/should write an Urban Farming Diet and Econonic Plan that if followed could build an economy for a black district/hood that would be successful within 3-6 months and permanently change the health and socioeconomic position of the residents. Making the area a prominent black area nationally. Farming is the only way to get out of our position and until we do that we will never win. Nothing has proven to work except farming. Control your food and control everything else. Period. That's why you have these chinks come in a sell you shytty food has you sick and aimless while buffering you from the cacs. Just changing diets changes the opportunities. If we drop pork and replace it with tomatoes, then you have an entire industry to jump start. Just from that act. You have to the choice to invest in Urban Farming materials/manufacturing. Stakes, zip ties, cages, hoses, buckets, green houses, water systems, piping, soil, fertilizers, fencing etc. That's a lot of money being moved and very quickly. After you got farmers and materials. Now you need advertisers, classes, health lectures, training centers, store fronts, conventions etc. But we need them 10,000 fearless to make it happen. Put your money and research where your mouth is or don't ever fix your lips to complain about a cac if you not producing like a REAL black man.

The thing is it's difficult, I remember growing up, Chinese food was our McDonalds, our Fridays, our Applebees. It was something that was different from the norm and it was pretty affordable. Now obviously most most of that food isn't good for you if you eat it all the time, and quality varies from place to place (hell today, theres only 3 spots I would even go to in my area), but Hun Sing kitchen has been feeding the hood for years while the owners make a living off our hard earned money but I think the bigger crime is us not supporting our own restaurants.
Edit: I can't count how many soul food/carribean restaurants have gone down over the past 20 years or so. Oddly enough they just opened a healthy soul food restaurant in Orange, I wonder how it will do?

More often than not I tend to take that L.
I wonder was that the reason for the dominance of them in the Beauty industry also.
I know this chick who moved from FLA to ARI. Once she got there she found out she had a hard time finding black hair stores. So she decided she would open up one. She researched it and found that most of the hair distributors are Asian. She opened business relationships with them and soon had hair and other black hair accessories being shipped over from China etc. .
Soon after she opened and was doing good. A Asian shop popped up out of nowhere. . And her distributors raised her wholesale prices on goods damn near 50%. Of course she got drove out of business. She found out from one of the workers at the Asian shop that they all get a great discount from the hair distributors overseas.
They support their own. Wish we did that.
Well we know there is a lane for manufacturing so that they can't raise no prices.
Here's another restaurant and food truck around ATL that is Black-owned and selling Mexican food: Blaxican Food Truck
