      I maintain that Mac and Cheese is one of those foods that weirdly gets better the worse and more fake it is.

      Ive had some gourmet shit and I always think “I miss the old Kraft one with the tinned cheese.”

      Because if we don’t separate everything by race, how can we hate each other effectively? We must attempt to make people feel bad or excluded for our differences!

    Good meme! (I have no clue what any of it means other than the dates)

      Juneteenth does not celebrate the abolishment of slavery. It celebrates the news arriving in Houston. New Jersey had slavery six months after juneteenth. Also it only freed men.

        I have never seen anything that says the Emancipation Proclamation or the 13th Amendment only freed men. Do you have a source for that?

          Did women have the right to vote, to open a bank account, to live without a man controlling them?

      I don’t think the point of the meme is that Mac n cheese belongs to black people. It’s that GOOD Mac n cheese belongs to black people. Maybe you didn’t notice, but the Mac n cheese on the left looks how it should while the one on the right looks like watery stoffers. If you didn’t notice, I’d say the meme is pretty accurate.

        I get that, but the Mac n cheese on the left is made by people in the south, not just black people. In fact a lot of things labeled as “black” are actually just southern. Its just the south has better food than the north. White people are eating it too.

        Edit: as a European who likes spicy food, anything you’re likely to get north of the Mason Dixon line is basically inedible slopp. Go eat a bowl of seafood gumbo and tell me I’m wrong. Go on, I’ll wait. And while you’re down there, bring me some southern maid donuts.

    I don’t get Juneteenth but I didn’t have to, it doesn’t affect me. Although personally I think the name is weird - it’s definitely grammatically incorrect. But whatever, y’all have fun. I like Mac’n’cheese though.
