While I feel so much of this sentiment to my core, I can't help but wonder if there's something problematic in my own position, so similar to what you've described. I also get overcome with disdain and anger, at reckless and uncaring bastardisation and appropriation of non-white food cultures. But I simultaneously exult in the ridicule of 'white people food', with the smug satisfaction of feeling (perhaps unjustifiably, but nonetheless deeply in my soul) somehow 'better'. Is this not also a form of racism? Fuck it, I still enjoy this (too much): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yrSCoEsmqA
