God forbid someone eat something outside of their comfort zone and try new things. That is what this article is saying. Growing up the only cuisines my family ate were Italian, American, and Chinese(on occassion). Once I was an adult I branched out and it was the best decision ever. The different amounts of things you can eat and experience. I cant understand anyone who would refuse to try new foods at least once to make a decision especially if you're going to refuse the food because it is "white folk food"
