Apologies if you were offended, Clarissa.
As a Sociology major that discusses stereotypes in classes, I'm used to being a little bit too open about these types of things. It always seems that there's a common understanding for where these things are in our society and our apathy (so to speak) is pretty much a "goes without saying."
And, as one would expect, I was overwhelmingly fine with the suggested "blackest foods ever" topic. I would have to add orange soda to the brief, but stereotypically accurate, list that you so eloquently provided us with. And cornbread.
I don't understand how it could possibly be offensive... I love fried chicken! I guess I hold that opinion about this entire topic in general. There can only be that negative connotation if you give it one. What's wrong with liking Tom Collinses? Nothing, I say!
But back on topic. I'm surprised that this has actually generated the discussion it has. I was anticipating it to be lost in the abyss of the BetterMost archives.
Because I hate beer, I'm often given funny looks at campus parties when I pull out the effiminate Mike's Hard Lemonade. *shrugs* At least it doesn't taste like beer.
