IKEA employees offended over Juneteenth menu.

[boombanoo]

Their best menu item on regular days is soggy meatballs they should just make that the every day menu.

Those meatballs aren't even that good . Such a let down when I finally sat down to try them.

 

[NoMoreWhiteWoman2020]

Are those cashews?

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

I would eat the food, then manifest outrage.

 

[///Vega+++]

That's not diet-friendly playa

 

[humminbird]

yeah I would be disgusted too

 

[Why-Fi]

"feed slaves watermelon", we were getting money off watermelon. so racists made it seem like it was some pickaninny bullshyt, try to fukk up business

 

[TripleAgent]

My guess was Florida then ATL. 2nd isn't bad

 

[PortCityProphet]

Im against making this a federal holiday.
1. Why tf should 200 million white folks get BLACK independence day off? fukk that.
2. Juneteenth will be completely b*stardized in 2 years. It'll be the mid summer Cinco de Mayo or St. Patrick Day where all it is is another reason for folks to get drunk at the beach, bars to have specials, bullshyt parties, and I guarantee a black boxer is gonna fight on that weekend every year now. And you know a restaurant somewhere someplace gon have a fried chicken and watermelon special that day.
3. And last thing they gon turn it into a bullshyt "day of service" like MLK day. "Let's Go out and paint the neighborhood, feed the homeless. Give back to the community." Nah fukk that too. They always trying to make Black folk do the most and can't even just chill. I never seen no damn day of service for 4th of July
4. Watch there be a march or something too. Like damn we gotta March on our holiday too?
This does nothing for black folk big picture. Aint bout to be about education, reminisce and memorializing, none of that happening. Just another day off for folks to turn up.

Called it.

Facts.

Plus it’s super healthy and helped us digest all the other bullshyt easier.

If anything, the employees should be upset with themselves for not knowing watermelon is a traditional Juneteenth food along with red velvet cake, hibiscus tea or any other red beverage.

I get it....racists used Fried Chicken and Watermelon to belittle Black people.
However soul food is African American food and we should embrace our cuisine just like everyone else around the world embraces theirs.

Same shyt happened with one of the dining halls for international students at my college

They had fried chicken, kool aid, watermelon, all that shyt.

Zero tact, just called it African American food day or some shyt.

Keep in mind I was literally the only black person in there who wasn’t from Africa and it was 90% Euro cacs and Asians. It was super uncomfortable even being in there witnessing at the BS

Only went there bc they had better food than the regular dining hall so I woulda never peeped the shyt otherwise.

I had exposed that shyt and got in contact with the black community on campus. So the international dining hall is a separate entity from the campus dining hall.

A lot of black people work for the campus dining hall and a breh was actually in charge of it. I made sure word got around to breh and he went IN on they asses. Had a sit down meeting with the dude who ran the international dining hall and everything.

Hopefully they won’t pull no bullshyt like that ever again, but I graduated before I got to see if there was any real change

You ate and enjoyed the delicious fried chicken then complained.



"This some bullshyt"

 

[EBK String]

Even though cacs are trying to be slick, I don't know why we are ashamed of the food we love just because cacs make fun of it.

 

[Why-Fi]

all in all if they have that many black employees they should have got some feedback first. how stupid can you be

 

[ColdSlither]

If white people cooked those greens, I wonder if they had any seasoning at all

Only if it's Paula Dean. Though she'll probably talk about plantations while making it.
