Why do black people like fried chicken so much?!


Question: Why do black people like fried chicken so much?
Seriously every black person I know likes it. I'm not trying to be racist. I'm just curious

Answers:

I understand, and will try to answer without being judgemental towards your question...This question has been around for centuries, so I think it's valid, and easy to answer.

My answer is:
Because they have great taste in food.
I'm white, and I love fried chicken.
I would say that fried chicken is a soul food, just like greens, etc.
They all started as the most readily available, least expensive foods, long ago, the Africans turned it into something dee-licious.
Innovation, my dear Watson.



You are trying to be racist actually and here's why. The "dump on". It's not black people that like fried chicken so much as others believing it to be the case. There was a short story or something about a disagreement between rivals that was settled over a dish unfamiliar to one of the gentlemen involved. A dish prepared by a ***** servant, the dish being fried chicken. If you can connect the dots between Huck Finn and catfish (which is a little closer to the question you didnt really want to ask) you'll have a better understanding of what I'm talking about.



If a White man loves fried chicken, why on Earth wouldn't a Black man? Fried Chicken is probably America's greatest single dish, and it is widely believed to have been invented by slaves.

Odd thing to note that Black people like it so much, when you can buy KFC in Beijing, the UK and God knows where else.

Now for the bad news: White or Black, we should only eat it on special occasions. I'm not even talking about KFC. Simply watch the customers walk in and out and you'll see what it does to your body. Real fried chicken is done in somebody's kitchen, under a watchful and knowing eye, to celebrate a son/daughter's return from Iraq or a 4th of July picnic. Eaten daily or even weekly is not up there with good ideas.



Personally, I think chicken is vulgar and disgusting...however, I do LOVE it when it's fried! I think most people love fried chicken and it's unfair to encompass an entire race and say something like that. It tastes good...it's that simple. That's why people love it.



Seriously, every WHITE person I know likes fried chicken. Brown people and Asians as well!
Watermelon too!
A person would have to be strange NOT to like 'em!

I think everyone love fried chicken. It's a very American saying. Here in Africa (home of the black people), everyone loves it! lol.



Because it's tradition. Between the hours of 2 and 3, all the negroes come out for chicken.



Everybody loves chicken :D



I'm a vegetarian who happen to be black...but yeah i use to love it.
DAVE CHAPPELLE: IF YOU DON'T LIKE FRIED CHICKEN THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU!!!



For the same reason why whites like to eat potatoes.



Not because they want to read stupid questions.



thats not always true



thats just a saying n not all of them like it some hate it
