Because, spoiler alert – it wasn’t a good idea at all. And now NBCU employee Questlove is bringing it to the attention of his 1 million plus Twitter followers.

Questlove, the band leader and drummer for The Roots (the house band on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon) tweeted this picture from the NBC Commissary at 30 Rock, with the comment: “Hmm HR?”

Wouldn’t have to be Black History Month. They could just have that as a regular cafeteria menu and the race baiters would scream racists.

But NBC is missing watermelon so they’ll get a pass.

This is a joke, right? Please tell me that these people are not so cacooned in their “I can’t be a racist, I voted for Obama” (which has now replaced “I can’t be racist, I have black friends”) that they cannot see how blatant this is???

Obviously, this is magical Yankee, liberal, free trade, free range, organic, equal opportunity, Northern fried chicken. Made by union cafeteria workers. No offense could possibly have been intended.

My husband would come home, smell something burning and ask, “Honey, what’s for dinner?”

Never failed.
