Lol so my take on the Children's Menu Discourse is that I've always found "culinary diplomacy" kind of weirdly condescending at best -- like the best thing about other cultures is what they can sell you for you to literally consume -- and yeah people are taking it way too far

Like the people who pop off with hot takes that IPAs are "toxic masculinity" and "no one actually wants beer that bitter" are annoying too Shut the fuck up okay If I want my beer to take some of my taste buds off with every sip that's my own issue

Anyway, I mean, my mom has a very sensitive palate, she has never been able to tolerate food with even very small amounts of heat -- not even black pepper -- and she also prefers it to be very lightly salted She is not, I assure you, the least bit white

(And she's been this way since before she immigrated, and in countries without white people, nobody thinks of this as a "white thing" Some people just can't handle heat and some people just have tender stomachs It's fine)
