why are white food writers always relating asian food to takeout? I swear to god the only time they write about asian foods, it’s always like, “10 recipes that are better than takeout,” etc. I talked about this with @maddylonglegs a few months ago but it’s still bothering me

the way these white people write, it’s clear that a) they think their only audience is white people, and b) that asian foods only exist as (cheap) takeout. they don’t recognize that some of us have been cooking and eating this food all our lives, and they don’t want to recognize that our foods have complex histories that don’t involve them. they think our food is one-dimensional and cheap, and that it only exists in the restaurants they go to. 

our foods all have a history, that can’t be separated from politics, class/economics, gender, family, immigration/diaspora etc. and a lot of that is inaccessible to white people. they don’t know where our food comes from, how we cook and eat in our own homes, or what our food means to us. white people can only see the way that our food relates to them.

I read a post on here by an Asian girl whose family owned a takeout business that talked about the harrssment and snide comments customers made (“is this real meat” kinda stuff) and she said that all the food is made fresh to order, so- coupled with what OP said- it’s probably safe to assume white people also think that takeout is just some frozen fast-food joint that they can perfect and make healither at home when it’s actually made to order fresh without the cost of some fancypants restaurant.

This and the fact that people separate Asian foods into the “cheap” kind (Chinese, Thai, Viet) and the kind they’re actually willing to pay money for (Japanese, Korean) which very clearly comes from ideas of politics class and economy.

Anonymous asked:

I'm Japanese-Korean and lots of people ask me about the difference between kimbap and sushi. Kimbap is so important because, for me, it is a reminder of what the Japanese did to Korea. Between 1910 and 1945, Japan occupied Korea, which brought about the introduction of Japanese food and kimbap came into existence. Kimbap reminds me what the Japanese did. Sushi is traditional Japanese food. Please don't combine the two.

In 1979, when the minimum wage was $2.90, a hard-working student with a minimum-wage job could earn enough in one day (8.44 hours) to pay for one academic credit hour. If a standard course load for one semester consisted of maybe 12 credit hours, the semester’s tuition could be covered by just over two weeks of full-time minimum wage work—or a month of part-time work. A summer spent scooping ice cream or flipping burgers could pay for an MSU education. The cost of an MSU credit hour has multiplied since 1979. So has the federal minimum wage. But today, it takes 60 hours of minimum-wage work to pay off a single credit hour, which was priced at $428.75 for the fall semester.

i feel like this study deserves an article written about it that ends pushing for cheaper tuition costs rather than one that ends encouraging students to major in things that make money
