Who's the one being divisive again? Presumably these students are not all here illegally so basically the person complaining about the PBJ being racists is also suggesting they aren't Americans?

People are idiots and people like this only serve to drive a deeper wedge between races.

Well it could be racist if you dare put the peanut butter and jelly on white bread and not rye.

With that being said, I still believe G. Washington Carver was an extremely intelligent man.

I must be a big racist I love a peanut butter sandwich with our home made blue berry jelly and a big glass of white milk.

As long as it aint Velveeta. I went to get a brick of that to make some cheese dip for the NFL opening day bash and the damn stuff is 5.99. Fed better stop printing up money are they will starve us all out!! Of course Velveeta may have some racist undertones too. Make by Kraft, hmmm? Somebody can dig something up I'm sure.

I loved that stuff and never ate, on the economy as we called it, without a big piece of vienereschnitzel. When I heard that many Bavarians prefer unborn veal I had a problem till I ate some of it. That age of beef just melts in your mouth.

Now back to ethnic discussion.
Ah, but did you learn:

Wiener Schnitzel = Veal
Schnitzel Wiener Art = Pork

Easy to make at home, btw. Had it two days ago and it was delicious. Drizzle a bit of fresh lemon on top and you are ready to go.

Well, there I go again with another racist food item. You just can't win.
