One of the wilder things in the US is the variability of history teaching. I grew up in CA and we read Farewell to Manzanar and went to hear the author speak at a big event for multiple schools. We read all kinds of stuff about the horrors of slavery and treatment of Native Americans.

I thought we were talking about gagging on perfectly cromulent foodstuffs.

Vast majority unaware how many people were enslaved and for how long, although poll finds support for reparations is rising

I’m not interested in litigating the troll US vs UK debate here but I will not stand for this biscuits and gravy slander.
Fried chicken also rips. And brisket. And Pecan pralines.
As is usually the answer with food things, the answer to the question “why?“ is “it tastes fuckin great”
