I’m hungry now.
omg, they processed cats into rice
Where can I apply for an Haitian neighbor?
I live in Little Haiti, Brooklyn and can confirm the food around here is some of the best in the city also everyone knows everyone in my building and my block. It’s very much not the norm for New Yorkers. But Haitians, and Caribbean people as a whole, are very community oriented and it’s pretty much impossible not to get entwined with the families you live around. I go to BBQs in front of my building and always get a plate brought up if someone’s having a party. I speak French to some of my neighbors and one friend particularly enjoyes it because she said it reminds her of home, albeit I don’t exactly speak the same French she does haha.
I have no clue why anyone would shit talk Haitians, they’re literally some of the best neighbors I’ve ever had. I mean I know why, Haiti was the first black independent post colony so they’ve been subjected to some particularly really shitty racist attacks historically. Just sucks though, they’re exactly the people who should be citizens of our country.
Once the maga folk migrates to Russia, because you know, satanic, socialist, Marxist, whateveric Kamala, there’ll be plenty of room to fill the country with pleasant people.
Edit: and I’m envious of you, I wish I had those neighbors.
Right?
“My trip to the Caribbean was great, but do not eat their terrible food.” – No one.
No one.Literally any white Midwesterner.
Woah there careful buddy one Color per dish maximum
“Oh yeah, bud. That chicken sure was a jerk. Very spicy.”
My inlaws from Illinois, probably.
I tease my brothers about this all the time. They moved to the Midwest a couple decades ago and their tolerance for spiciness has gone way down. We also get into frequent disagreements about whether The Outback is a good steak house, Red Lobster serves good seafood, or Olive Garden is high quality authentic Italian. We also disagree about the existence of restaurants that are not national chains
We also disagree about the existence of restaurants that are not national chains
Do those even exist anymore?
Outside the Midwest, yes
I’ll also volunteer to “inspect” the food. I vow I’ll try every plate until I find something
You’ll get to the bottom of this…plate of food.
Actually, it looks delicious
So that’s where my pet rice went
To be fair though, I don’t know that I would be able to tell the difference between cooked cat/dog and chicken, beef, or pork, so this may very well be a pet feast for all I know (/s the whole thing is obviously BS).
However, I do remember growing up near a family that was from somewhere in the Carribean area, I feel like it was Haitians, but this was 30+ years ago so no actual idea, and I distinctly remember that they had a giant tortoise at their house that they were keeping to kill for food. I remember they even cut its head off while I was there and it was still biting onto a stick they put in its mouth. I don’t know what the meal was that they made from it and I never actually tasted it.
I want to eat at this person’s house.
That all looks amazing.
That rice looks delicious
Only tangentially ended up learning about Haitian food before but if my memory serves rice and vegetables are a massive staple in the common Haitian diet. I’d wager that’s some damn fine rice.
Reminder that JD Vance legit said that they come from Haitia.
Dude doesn’t even know what Haiti is he thinks Haitians are from Haitia 🤣
Btw there is a Haitia. In India
Those Haitwegians, always eating cat
Just like mom used to make back in Haitia.
I want someone to get Vance to show us Hatia on a map.
This seems like a golden opportunity for Haitians to share their favourite recipes. Haitian food isn’t as well known as Jamaican food or Cuban food, but I bet there are some really delicious things. I wonder if there’s still any French influence.
Odd. Thought they grabbed dogs like Saturn eating his son.
Forget about the dogs. Where are the recipes?
Folks, repeating and riffing on horrifying racist lies is still racism, even when you do it “ironically”. This goes for OP’s title, too. Do better.
You must hate the comedy of Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock…
Are you Haitian? Those people are black. The fact that you don’t understand why this is different tells me everything.
Yes, so are the comedians I mentioned. And they used racist words in their comedy.
Please see the names of Richard Pryor’s albums: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Pryor#Albums
American conservatives are still malding out because they don’t think black migrants should be allowed access to food.
Black people.
I really appreciate that we’re aggregating this information and starting to call out racist bullshit like this in the media.
I haven’t watched or read any actual news in a while because it was obvious to me that they’re only reporting on stuff they want to report on.
It always boiled my blood when they’re talking about irrelevant shit and the stats say that in the past hour there have been x crashes, y deaths, and z other serious issues that have happened.
It annoyed me when they would make headline news stories about commonplace things like “82 year old grandmother died of old age”… When there’s war, famine and death from not “natural causes” happening continually. They’d lengthen the story with interviews of people that knew the person, and interviews with old folks asking “what’s the secret to a long life” and get bullshit answers from them.
Who cares? Why are you taking time and attention away from the people who have been shot and killed because the government sent them overseas to fight for the profits of some oil company that wants to rape another country of its natural resources? All those people killed… FOR THE ALMIGHTY DOLLAR.
Then I remember, they get funding from those oil tyremoveds. They’ve been bought and paid for. The whole thing is corrupt and idiotic.
How dare they
Damn that’s fuckin wild
