One day soon I have to dig up some internet references to black nationalism and diet. Their ideology eschews any kind of food that they believe plantation owners fed to slaves, which are therefore considered to be “slave food”.
On top of that, black nationalist mythology insists that the white devils fed certain types of food to blacks and Native Americans to make them lazy, fat, slow, and submissive. In other words, more docile and easy to control.
Something tells me Moochelle’s compulsive nitpicking about diet and school menus comes from those ideological roots of white hatred.
