    Good meme! (I have no clue what any of it means other than the dates)

      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

        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…

        Can’t say I’m familiar with that stereotype as it relates to black Americans. Immigrant minorities, sure.

        I don’t think the meme itself is making that particular distinction, moreso just the difference in cuisine in general as a racial stereotype.

          as both Juneteenth and the 4th of July are American holidays, I referred to American stereotypes about Americans

        I assumed it was: “typical black family Mac and cheese” (baked, delicious)

        “typical average American Mac and cheese” (not baked, more saucy, delicious)
