This may be news to some, but there's a whole world out there that ISN'T America

It's simply astounding how this chef (Chang) can fly around the world yet still spend the preponderance of the episode focusing on American politics -- in an extremely superficial way. The meaning of this particular dish in the USA does not and need not have this meaning for others. Get over it.

The best part was the pseudo-sociologist painting all white American people with a single brush, even though the super-majority of those folks aren't just immigrants, but also ones from the non-elite population who obviously brought their own traditional cuisines with them.

This show would not be produced outside of the USA because it's too dumb.

Most race bating episode ever
nabusse8318 August 2021
Historically the prejudice of this food is primarily African American, which I hate as a person of very mixed heritage. Thought the history of fried chicken is disputed.... Scottish and Chinese influences are historically the foundation. The actual process of "frying" chicken can unequivocally be linked to these cultures. I hate that it is a stereotype of American slavery. But, we need to exhalt the people that created the process, whether Scott's or Chinese, it doesn't matter.
