“People are happy to enjoy immigrant food but they never think about the hands making that food.” ‘Taste the Nation’ host @PadmaLakshmi talks with @mehdirhasan about the disconnect some Americans have between their political beliefs and the meals before them.

She is right. Generally people need to be reminded how we are all immigrants and they constantly improve and enrich everyone's lives.

I'm still waiting for the taco trucks on every corner.

Mainly they don't care about the lives of the people making the food.

They want to enjoy our food and culture bu they don't want us here.

I often think about the cultures and people that create ethnic food. I think about how much more industrious immigrants are, in their restaurants, than American owners are. Except for breakfast, I always choose ethnic restaurants to eat in, since I can cook American at home.

Sharing cultural things like food is amazing to promote unity among cultures. It doesn't mean we have to accept or like everyone. We don't see people as mere group members, but as individuals. Each unique. That's the big difference between leftists and normal people.

2019 I was invited to 4th July party assigned to bring appetizer. When I said going to bring Indonesian food, the host said she wanted to have American food so I assigned to bring dessert instead and sent me pictures of brownies, cakes, cupcakes.

No!!! It’s the ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS that Americans don’t want here. If you are here legally, then welcome to the good ole USA. If not, FUCK OFF!! Comparing illegal immigrants to food. What a bunch of freaking idiots!! #liberalloser #2ndAmendment #BuildTheWall #padmasuckdonkeyballs
