And there’s a chance they didn’t give you “real” Thai food because you’re white (just assuming your ethnicity here)
- RandomInteger4 8y agoThat's pretty racist.
- BrandoElFollito 8y agoWhy? It makes sense to adapt what you are giving to the ethnicity (= where they likely come from) of the guests. When I was in Malaysia, I was warned all the time (I am white) and thanks God because the few me I did not listen I suffered.
- RandomInteger4 8y agoListen, dude, bro, amigo, compadre, chief, dude ... just because you can't stand spicy food, doesn't mean the rest of those that fall under the category of 'white' can't stand spicy food. In the realm of formal logic, we call this "hasty generalization". It's stupid. Don't do it. I mean, for fork's sake, one of the most popular show on YouTube right now is a white dude who eats spicy food with every guest they interview. Maybe the times you were warned and didn't listen, they decided to fork with you and give you the extra hot ingredients.
- BrandoElFollito 8y agoI suggest you read again my message as apparently you are stuck on your idea of "white people eat spicy food". I am saying that taking into account the possible differences because someone is from abroad and may have different tastes is a nice thing to do and I appreciate the gesture. But yeah, they probably do not teach this in youtube videos. Have a good day.
