>>2942324Regardless of the hot sauce being European, Mexican, Cajun, Indian, Vietnamese, Thai, or anything else, my point remains that African Americans have managed to take cultural dominance over pretty much every comfort food from the south my white ass grew up eating from family recipes that go back generations and it kills me inside.
I've lived in several culturally distinct parts of America and it is sheer madness when people think I'm acting black when I talk about eating or cooking shit like fried chicken/catfish with hot sauce, cornbread, greens & bourbon, barbecue, red beans and rice, crawfish/shellfish boils, a cobbler, sticky pecan bread pudding, or banana pudding poured on a graham cracker crust with 'Nilla wafers for dessert.
When I was living in New Mexico and discovered the magical cuisine that is New Mexican/Chihuahuan food like hatch green & red chile-based enchiladas, rellenos, gorditas, bañado burritos, carne adovada, and the endless magical simple things you can make with eggs, pork chorizo, potatoes, rice, tortillas, and melting cheeses like asadero and quesadilla, I have no problem giving New Mexicans the credit. Many great southern cooks are African Americans, but if one more dumbass numale tells me only blacks are culturally responsible and entitled to those foods because white slave owners were too lazy to cook so they made slaves do it, forgetting how in the process, therefore making the black community responsible for all subsequent nuance and recipe related to Southern cooking
