Who’s taking an extreme view? His argument is Asian cooking belongs to Asians and no one else should write about it in case it steals nonexistent money from potential authors.  I’m asking for evidence. As is AoT. 
 

 

Except that wasn’t his argument and you are acting like a Twitter twat.

It’s difficult to quantify as any excuse could be made for not publishing, lots of legitimate reasons of course. There are anecdotal reports though, yes. You only need look at who gets their gurning mug on the front of cook books to see something amiss. 

 

That above is the hyper sensitive internet hive mind striking again and does nobody any favours.

 

But if you look at the cook books published, or the restaurant’s opened you will, in the main, find the most successful (financially) are owned by non natives who have appropriated for financial gain.

 

I can’t send you the link as it’s a word document, but google 20 examples of cultural appropriation in the food world, it’s the first link, and it’ll show you some of the most egregious.

You can appropriate food?  I’m afraid I think that’s bollocks. 
 

You can’t appropriate sex but you can food? Mental.

I'm not getting that.

Well he says it here;

 

expose on the back of ‘cultural appropriation’ and benefit from using another cultures history and cuisine for financial gain and expose, whilst those native to the country will be passed over for more recognisable/photogenic people despite it being their cultural lineage and, you’d hope, being better and more knowledgeable about it.

You can appropriate culture, which includes food, for profit, yes, Britain was built on it.

If you believe in discrimination, or cultural appropriation in this case and know how a good deal of the media operates then its a small leap. It doesn't happen 100%,as very little does but its still something to keep an eye on. This tends to be how a mostly civilised society works outside of the cesspit of social media.

You've basically seen the word "appropriation" and started screaming "GAH! Beryl!!" without reading or understanding the whole post.

Its an argument that has merit, but is being vastly overblown by dickheads on Twitter and so forth.  

Well, quite

No I haven’t.  I think the whole idea is frankly stupid.  Her book is telling people how to make food.  That’s it. 

[Strontium]

My argument would be that culture doesn't belong to anyone, therefore it cannot be appropriated. And preparation of food is an applied science, and scientific processes don't care what passport the person performing them is holding. I'm very uneasy about even the implication that someone may be better at something simply because it forms part of their "cultural lineage". Moreover, that way of thinking helps to limit people from certain cultures from expanding beyond traditional or stereotypical roles.

That's why it's good to see, for example, a British-Indian woman being given a series on Italian food (rather than being told to talk about Indian food or shut the fuck up).  There may be an argument that it's an example of white privilege if (and I don't even know if this is true) white foodies and chefs find it much easier to get the publishing and broadcasting deals for cuisines other than what their gran cooked.

Watched a Punch and Judy show today. Gloriously un-PC. Judy took a twatting, baby thrown down the stairs the lot. Absolutely brilliant.

Copper turns up and just starts twatting everyone in sight, exactly the way Priti Patel would want it.

What a cunt. That symbol and praising that cunt is not art it's hate fuelled rhetoric. Particularly in Warsaw for fuck sake.

Only one of those 2 are true.

 

 

Well it’s on Dave now.  Canned laughter and not very funny. But only 7 mins in so I won’t judge.  Yet.

I’m judging - Rachel’s tits are now massive. I’m in.

Fuck it’s rubbish. 
 

White people hate their grandparents apparently.

50% of mine are definitely ‘iffy’ with another I have to rely on personal testimony about taking the total 75%.

 

Twenty five percent were solid humans.

 

So this honky hates, probably, over half.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Hmm.

Either he's coming back from Serbia minus a kidney or he'll get there and find out he's being hunted for sport by some rich American Dentist.
