Actually, it looks delicious

Just like mom used to make back in Haitia.

I want someone to get Vance to show us Hatia on a map.

I'm hungry now.

To be fair though, I don't know that I would be able to tell the difference between cooked cat/dog and chicken, beef, or pork, so this may very well be a pet feast for all I know (/s the whole thing is obviously BS).

However, I do remember growing up near a family that was from somewhere in the Carribean area, I feel like it was Haitians, but this was 30+ years ago so no actual idea, and I distinctly remember that they had a giant tortoise at their house that they were keeping to kill for food. I remember they even cut its head off while I was there and it was still biting onto a stick they put in its mouth. I don't know what the meal was that they made from it and I never actually tasted it.

omg, they processed cats into rice

Folks, repeating and riffing on horrifying racist lies is still racism, even when you do it "ironically". This goes for OP's title, too. Do better.

You must hate the comedy of Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Are you Haitian? Those people are black. The fact that you don't understand why this is different tells me everything.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Yes, so are the comedians I mentioned. And they used racist words in their comedy.

Please see the names of Richard Pryor's albums: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Pryor#Albums

This is the obvious response to the terrorism-inducing Republican meme. A recipe with a mount-watering picture in response to every regurgitation of that reprehensible lie would have been awesome. A bit late for that now, I think it's dying down ...

I want to eat at this person’s house.

That all looks amazing.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

So that's where my pet rice went

Ugh! Coriander, I'd rather have dog!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Forget about the dogs. Where are the recipes?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

that meat? CAT, the rice? CAT, the cheese? you guessed it CAT

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

im sure we could ask RFK about whether or not they eat dogs, he seems to have experience in this field.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He had to literally deny eating a dog. And yet he doesn't seem to mind this racist bullshit.

most average political controversy

This seems like a golden opportunity for Haitians to share their favourite recipes. Haitian food isn't as well known as Jamaican food or Cuban food, but I bet there are some really delicious things. I wonder if there's still any French influence.

I'm here to offer a solution: Find me a Haïtien to cook for me and I will juge l'influence française.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Looks amazing, ive personally never tried Haitian food though (my area is Dominican).

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Reminder that JD Vance legit said that they come from Haitia.

Dude doesn't even know what Haiti is he thinks Haitians are from Haitia 🤣

Btw there is a Haitia. In India

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Those Haitwegians, always eating cat

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Noooo that shrimp was my pet!!

What would it take to get some of that fish and rice here right the hell now?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My wife is Filipino and cooks rice and fish all the time. Come on over!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Fuck yeah, I'm on my way!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago
