I've been reading on here how a lot of races think white people grow up on this stuff, i sure didn't, i hardly got to go out to eat as a kid, my parents always cooked really good food, are there any other white americans that grew up on home cooked food?

I suppose for the same reasons ignorant White Americans think the French only eat snails and fish eggs or the Chinese only eat cats and uncooked fish or the Italians only eat them spicy meatballs.

You're absolutely right. I mean, sometimes I go out to eat with my friends or something but generally I eat home cooked food and always have. I grew up on things like chicken and dumplings, biscuits and gravy, collard greens, country ham, green beans, grits....and so on. I'd choose beef stew over a burger any day!

Wow, I didn't realize other races think this. I grew up on country food - vegetables, rice, fried chicken, roast beef, porck chops, meta loaf, etc. with an occasional burger or hot dog. But I guess other races can be just as stereotype-minded as us white folks can be sometimes. I mean, how many of us have made cracks about black folk and watermelon, Hispanics and peppers, etc.?

Yes, when I was a kid my Mom cooked all kinds of good things, from roast beef to turkey, to home baked bread to chocolate chip cookies.
We did have hot dogs on picnics, usually at the beach. Oh, and s'mores. I still love s'mores.
One thing I don't understand, though. Why did they leave out pizza??

White people eat - Hamburger(German) , English Muffins, Cupcakes, Pizza(italian) , Irish Soda Bread , Smoked Salmon, Pasta, Chocolate Mousse, Cake, steamed veggies, EDIT : Hamburger is German , Pizza is also European and so is hot dogs. What are you talking bout ? Sure every race eats them NOW just like every race uses computers and other tech that are created by white european. White culture is soo big it encompasses the WORLD unlike any other culture that people forget white people have their own culture.

In my family, mom cooked every night. Eating a hamburger was a rare treat. Hotdogs were rare cause dad says they aren't good for you and they are made out of gross parts of the pig. To me good is homemade chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and gravy.

Because you have individuals who sue the fast food chains and a movie called "super size me". You have a lot of fast food chains moving to other countries calling it American Food. No one sues their mother for making them fat or makes a movie about it. The real restraunts that have nutritional food can't afford to franchise. People believe what they see. They have no way of knowing the truth.

Because the world is a horrible, sterotypical place. It's like how people assume that everyone in theatre is bi or gay or 'sexually confused'. Or that all teenagers must be doing drugs, having sex, and listening to rap. Stupid society and its labels.

Probably because they think American people eat American food, I guess different races et their own foods?
