I didn't know "waffles" were a racist food trope.... Besides that, still tone deaf though 🤨
It kinda makes Sense in a backwards kinda way. It can teach kids the stereotype and treat them because fried chicken and watermelon are both amazing. >

Fried chicken and waffles with watermelon dessert? Yes please. >

As much as I like to throw shade on the american education system, this is the fault of the company contracted to handle lunches, not the school itself.  And quite frankly, fried chicken, watermelon, and waffles is a fantastic lunch.  Bad timing? Maybe, but then again professional offendees likely would have taken issue with this any time of this particular month.  Same if they'd tried to serve gumbo, collard greens, cornbread, jambalaya, or any kind of pork. >

This isn’t the first time I’ve heard a story like this over the years… it almost seems like a fake story at this point. >

Sounds nice 👍🏿 >

I eat the shit out of waffles and chicken every time I can and I have watermelon every birthday.
