The answer is D. because Kool-aid is not a food item; it is a beverage.

I don't get how a coffee kool aid man is racist. What am I missing here?

[–]TheMathGiraffe 7 points8 points ago

BROWN.

[–]BZenMojo 0 points1 point ago

You don't know the old military slang for coffee (and thank God). That's some very old-school niche racism right there.

I think that's what you can rely on. Every type of anti-black racism will make its way into a Reddit thread from "white guy posing as black guy so secret racists can speak openly" to "gif of little angry kid from Wonder Showzen subverted into a display of racial stereotypes." It's like a potluck of shitlordery every day. This is the quality of antisocial subhumanity you can expect from Reddit.

[–]victoriestotaste 26 points27 points ago

Purple drank.

[–]doot_doot 27 points28 points ago

sugar, water, and purple

[–]EzanaG 3 points4 points ago

But the question is asking which food item is not delicious. So Kool-Aid can't be the right answer since the answer must be a food item and must also be not delicious.

[–]Crimms 9 points10 points ago

False, a food item is considered to be anything that is fit for human consumption, which includes beverages.

The correct answer is BWatermelon AKA I can see the pixels.

[–]runnerboy23 2 points3 points ago

I will never forget a comment where someone said, 'watermelon, its crunchy water, like pixels shit in my mouth.'

Credit where it is needed, Bayamuth.

[–]Ceejae 2 points3 points ago

The question has already stated that it is in fact a food item. We are forced to assume this is true and answer accordingly.

[–]tonytwotokes 1 point2 points ago

What about fried kool aid? I would have to lump that into the kool aid answer.

[–]elnrith 0 points1 point ago

have you actually had that stuff?its pretty delicious

    [–]biskino 10 points11 points ago

    B-b-b-b-but if there is absolutely nothing racist in portraying black people as fried chicken and watermelon craving beasts, why-oh-why would he feel the need to lie like that?

    [–]BZenMojo 9 points10 points ago

    Because he wrongfully assumed Reddit wasn't progressive enough to see past his whiteness to allow him to insult another race.

    Thankfully, Rule 1 on Reddit applies

    As long as white men are happy.

    I put it into the same category of Jews liking money. WHO THE FUCK DOESN'T LIKE MONEY?

    [–]denizenKRIM 12 points13 points ago

    The stereotype is more about how they acquire money, not simply desiring it.

    [–]semperverus 5 points6 points ago

    Money fucking sucks. It causes too much stress in my life...

    [–]A_Huge_Mistake 10 points11 points ago

    False. Money doesn't cause stress. Lack of money causes stress.

    [–]vexnar 0 points1 point ago

    he who has alot of money always desires more, he who lacks money is happy with what he has

    [–]Little_Rii 13 points14 points ago

    You are a disgrace to Jews everywhere.

    [–]smpx 0 points1 point ago

    Money doesn't suck. Stressful ways of getting money sucks.

    [–]MechaToast 10 points11 points ago

    It's less about deliciousness or how common it is and more about the assumption that a person's tastes are defined by skin color.

    [–]emcee70 56 points57 points ago

    As a white guy, I share your sentiment

    [–]servohahn 9 points10 points ago

    I get that some foods are supposed to be stereotypically "black food" but all of that shit is fucking delicious. So what's the connection? Black people like good food? Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles? Good fucking god. I live near the one in Long Beach. I can smell it from three blocks away, I shit you not. It smells like cookies and churros. I like every goddam item on that menu and I always order about 3 or 4 times as much as I can eat.

      [–]lkrudwig 28 points29 points ago

      1.) Crisp's Korean Fried Chicken in Chicago.

      2.) Freshly Baked Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread.

      3.) Soarin' Strawberry Lemonade.

      [–]Articunozard 16 points17 points ago

      I never knew Kool Aid had names that weren't colors.

      [–]mysticrudnin 5 points6 points ago

      i do refer to one as not a color: cold

      (it's ice blue raspberry lemonade and tastes like cold)

      SWEET corn bread?? I didn't know that was a thing, but I'm imagining it now, and I bet it tastes a thousand times better than the sad corn bread I've had. Off to google...

      [–]pandaham 14 points15 points ago

      On the flip side of this, if you're feeling adventurous, try spicy cornbread with a little cayenne pepper and chili powder, then serve with honey...flavorcomboexplosion.

      [–]Jisaw 6 points7 points ago

      Jalapeno cornbread is also amazing.

      [–]Butt_touch 9 points10 points ago

      Texan here. Sweet cornbread can taste like shit or taste amazing. All depends on who makes it.

      [–]AlphaWolfPsycho 9 points10 points ago

      Fellow Texan here, I can confirm this.

      [–]Woovie 6 points7 points ago

      I too, as a Texan, can confirm his confirmation.

      [–]Thorgusta 7 points8 points ago

      As another Texan I can state they are all correct.

      [–]pokeatthedevil 6 points7 points ago

      As someone who was born in Michigan, then moved to Virginia, whose mother has an amazing sweet cornbread recipe, but has also had some sad sweet cornbread, I can agree with the Texans.

      [–]CodenameDeadpool 3 points4 points ago

      Texan as well, all of the aforementioned confirmations are correct.

      [–]bananas21 0 points1 point ago

      Yes. Cause my white relatives aren't fun. And no cornbread or chicken..

      [–]zous 2 points3 points ago

      Hah, I might be the only one who likes regular cornbread instead. Why ruin good cornbread with more sugar? Everyone knows all you really need is a tall glass of milk to dip (or better, submerge) it in!

      Man sometimes I really miss Georgia.

      [–]Anna_Mosity 1 point2 points ago

      Milk?!? Dipping?!? I'm starting to believe that I've never liked cornbread because I've been eating it totally wrong all these years.

      [–]zous 0 points1 point ago

      Completely. Next time cut off some cornbread, put it in a glass, and pour in milk. Then use a spoon to scoop it out (followed by drinking down the milk when you're done). If it's not the best cornbread you've ever had, you did it wrong.

      [–]servohahn 2 points3 points ago

      I didn't know that not-sweet cornbread was a thing. I even mix some honey in with butter and smear it all over the cornbread.

      Also, my chest has been hurting pretty badly lately.

      [–]DuchySleeps 1 point2 points ago

      You should try what my dad used to call 'Cowpolk Cornbread'.

      Brown up some ground beef, spice to your liking. Things should be kept fairly simple, but light amounts of cumin and chili-powder are fine.

      As the meat is cooking, chop up a few jalapenos or whatever peppers you have hanging around.

      Open a can of beans, generally the 'ranch style' beans go well with this, don't bother cooking them. Just drain them from whatever liquid they're in and put them to the side.

      Once your meat is done, mix it together with the beans and chilis, along with a can of creamed corn.

      Then prepare your cornbread. Make it according to the instructions, easy shit.

      Layer the bottom of your pan with about half of the meat/bean/corn mixture, and pour the cornbread mix on top. Then, pour the other half of the meat on top of that, and let it sink in. Top it all with cheese and bake.

      Apparently he got it out of a cook book from the twenties, but in reality I think he was drunk one night and raided the pantry.

      Still good though.

      [–]_tintenfisch_ 1 point2 points ago

      Regular cornbread with molasses. Try it.

      [–]derrida_n_shit 1 point2 points ago

      This is funny. I never knew there was corn bread that wasn't sweet.

      [–]28_06_42_12 0 points1 point ago

      Buy a box of Trader Joes' cornbread, or have a friend mail you one. It's sort of like corn cake, with actual corn in it in addition to the cornmeal. You don't even need to put honey on it!

        Trick question. They are ALL delicious.

        [–]RedPanther1 0 points1 point ago

        As a white guy, all of those answers are unacceptable. All of those options are thoroughly delicious.

        I think white people think it's funnier

        [–]inchesfromdead 1 point2 points ago

        As a white guy, I would make the same damn face.

        [–]billraydrums 0 points1 point ago

        As a guy raised in the deep south, I can totally relate.

        [–]lnsine 0 points1 point ago

        As a white guy, I don't think admitting being white is helping my case.

        [–]mikfin1423 0 points1 point ago

        E...all of the above are equally delicious

        [–]allworkandlowpay 0 points1 point ago

        As a white guy, I can concur. These are all delicious.

        As a white guy, this made me hungry.

        Ur black? I am latino. minority upvote!

        [–]BagOnuts 0 points1 point ago

        As a white guy, I'd have the same reaction.

        [–]RaindropBebop 0 points1 point ago

        If I had to pick one, I'd say cornbread. Often, I am served really crappy, dry cornbread.

        If my cornbread were as consistently good as my watermelon, fried chicken, and kool-aid? Well, then it would be a tough decision.

        This one's pretty good too. All in the name of fun of course. No offence meant to anyone.

        Too late, you racist.

          Corn bread.

          Hey, we invented a bread that tastes like crap and holds the texture of styrofoam.

          Edit: I refer, however, to the cornbread I had once, then decided I didn't like. I should give it another try from what you people are telling me.

          [–]Iamgoingtooffendyou 10 points11 points ago

          Good cornbread is fucking awesome and I hope one day you get a chance to try good cornbread.

          [–]Harodan 2 points3 points ago

          All right, true; My family was never into cornbread, so it's highly likely that the cornbread I had was stale and laced with earwax.

          [–]wanderingdog 0 points1 point ago

          This is true. Real cornbread is moist and sweet. Like cake. Mmm.... it's like biting into a brownie covered in ice cream. Ah god I need some cornbread right now.

          [–]Iamgoingtooffendyou 1 point2 points ago

          It should be called corncake.

          [–]wanderingdog 2 points3 points ago

          Whatever ya call it, I'm going to eat it.

          [–]Rainb0wcrash99 0 points1 point ago

          As a white guy, I'm not allowed to laugh at this.

          That's racist man, are you implying that us whities can't find that funny too!?

          [–]PrototypeKH -3 points-2 points ago

          Dude, what kind of human being DOESN'T like any of these foods? They're all the bomb.

          [–]nbarnacle 3 points4 points ago

          The bomb? Did I just step into a time machine into the 90s?

          [–]coleosis1414 -1 points0 points ago

          The answer is corn bread. Because I fucking hate corn bread.

          Also, I don't understand the appeal of kool-aid. It's just red sugar water. Literally every beverage besides plain water is better than kool-aid.

          That being said, watermelon and fried chicken are awesome any day. (I am white)

          [–]iDontEnjoyThis 2 points3 points ago

          You have obviously never had good cornbread.

          [–]Fapologist 0 points1 point ago

          Mmhmm. Cornbread with melted butter on it with some soup beans. Mouthgasm.

          [–]mebbee -2 points-1 points ago

          As white dude I still find those things delicious.

          Not as a stereotype, but I just wanted to point out that black folks do have common taste preferences though. My wife recently got into smoking hookah, and I shit you not she likes the grape and mint flavors. All I could think of was Newport and grape Kool-aid.

          [–]elle_a_deux_colombe 3 points4 points ago

          So your wife likes certain hookah flavours. How does that translate into "black folks do have common taste preferences"?

          [–]mebbee -3 points-2 points ago

          Umm, it's a common joke that black people like Newports and "grape kool-ad". Chappelle popularized it. It's not something I just pulled out of my ass.

          Edit: Wow, gotta love the righteous downvotes. Don't forget what thread you're reading. Oh, and in case you haven't figured out why I equated my wife's preferences with other black people - it's because she is black.

          [–]elle_a_deux_colombe 4 points5 points ago

          No shit. How does your wife enjoying those flavours authenticate that stereotype?

          [–]mebbee 0 points1 point ago

          Does it take a genius?

          Mint = Newport menthol

          Grape = Grape Kool-aid

          I love that I'm getting downvoted for a simple observation.

          It's probably less about stereotypes and more about culture. Different cultures have different preferences. If it's true is it a stereotype?

          BTW I shouldn't have to remind you what thread you are trying to call me out on. Have a look at the original post title and picture before you get all uppity.

          [–]nbarnacle 4 points5 points ago

          you're an idiot.

          [–]elle_a_deux_colombe 0 points1 point ago

          I love that I'm getting downvoted for a simple observation.

          im not downvoting you but youre getting downvoted for saying silly things

          Different cultures have different preferences. If it's true is it a stereotype?

          yes

          because you're ascribing personal preference to culture

          because you don't know if it's true or not. you're just parroting what you've been told by lazy copypasta and generalising "your wife's" personal preferences and ascribing them to culture

          [–]mebbee 1 point2 points ago

          If she was the only person that I had seen with those preferences, then I would be ascribing a single personal preference to a culture. I'm not though.

          You have never been in a black community before, otherwise you would realize that it's true that Newports are pretty popular there.

          Over the more than 40 years since Gardiner — who is black — opted for Kools, menthol cigarettes have become increasingly popular with African-American smokers. Today, black smokers are four times more likely to choose menthols than white smokers. (Gardiner quit smoking long ago.) By 2005, half of black smokers smoked Newports, the most popular menthol brand.

          http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/story/health/story/2011/03/FDA-weighs-ban-on--Newports-other-menthol-cigarettes/44877538/1

          I'm not making this shit up. Stop trying to call me out for making a simple observation relating my wife's preferences to those of other black people.
