It's not the menu itself. It is the fact that NBC plays politically correct police FOR EVERYONE ELSE. All the time. Even to the point of having a "Diversity Council". It is time the PC Police are called out on their own behavior. Every time. Plus, why constantly separate people into "groups"? It's ridiculous. No, perhaps you should understand the point.

Plus, why constantly separate people into "groups"? It's ridiculous.

Why not just be nice to her and stop screaming for her blood.? I happen to be English, and if someone if somebody wanted to celebrate English History Week with a menu of roast beef with all the trimmings, I'd just be delighted. Why the double standard?

According to an interview with her, she does not understand the hostility and is worried about the other 3 meals she has planned for this month. Furthermore she fears that backlash from this year will mean that she will be unable to continue in the future. Sounds to me that some people should get all the facts before attacking.

NBC is its' own worst enemy. You couldn't make this stuff up if you tried. I heard it got out because someone took a pic with their cell phone and captioned it, HMMM HR? HR? I don't think so, call Affirmative Action. They could do an entire seminar on this menu. Many of my black friends, born in the north and having lived there all their lives, would look at that menu and question "WHY". PS. Since I'm from the south, I can guarantee those collards and cornbread were LOUSY. A further insult to those of us who know. To Horace Person, the only reason there is no watermelon on the menu is probably because it is not in season. Thanks for the laugh Lori!
