Juneteenth celebrates the abolishment of slavery, I’d say people of colour are the most happy about that, and people of colour are stereotypically famous for making good food
4th of July celebrates the US independence, which though not a predominantly a white holiday more white people (on account of being a racial majority) will celebrate it, and white people are stereotypically famous for making bland food
I know I’m into this meme way too deep here, but I think content like this is just rather divisive in a very subtle but damaging way. The comment I actually replied to goes to that next actual step saying the joke is truthful. Not the end of the world but I don’t think calling it out is inappropriate.

Idk man French food is pretty good
C’est vrai.
This seems pretty dumb… I don’t typically attribute amazing Mac and cheese to minorities.
Like… Most other foods, sure. But this one? Come now…
The meme is specifically referring to the quality of food at black cookouts versus white cookouts. If you’ve been to both, you know.
Maybe the white people you hang out with are shitty cooks. It’s amazing how folks will continue stereotypes that don’t even make sense.
I’m sure there’s plenty of people of colour who suck at cooking. Those are just stereotypes used for an Internet joke

You’d last 5 seconds at a black standup comedy show. Too much flavour.
Sorry the meme hurt your feelings.
Wouldn’t white cookouts be steak and burgers and that sorta stuff
I have been to both, and the stereotypes are wrong. Cooking skill is not inherent to race or culture, it’s within the individual at the stove.
Can’t say I’m familiar with that stereotype as it relates to black Americans. Immigrant minorities, sure.
The stereotype of white people making bland food is pretty common in the black community. And adding raisins to potato salad.
I have never heard of raisins in a potato salad and that sounds terrible.
RIP Chadwick Boseman
I don’t think the meme itself is making that particular distinction, moreso just the difference in cuisine in general as a racial stereotype.
The stereotype I always saw was just KFC, watermelon and some purple drink. Maybe it was a bit more aggressive stereotype than what you had in mind
You aren’t invited to the cookout
Me at the cookout
I’ll just order it to-go
Also collared greens.
White => English
All whole people from anywhere else is proud of their food
as both Juneteenth and the 4th of July are American holidays, I referred to American stereotypes about Americans
