People Pretend

Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom I think people often pretend to like non-American cuisines as a way of showing sophistication. I'm honest enough to say that my mostly Irish taste buds can't handle whatever it is that is called "Indian" in the US and UK. You may all continue with your outrage now. /3x 11:48 AM Nov 24, 2019 TweetDeck

Hot Food

Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom I said it many times. I think people whose eyes are watering, gulping water, sweating, and telling me they enjoy it are doing it because they are somehow trying to embrace an authentic experience, not because they like it. I know many people love it. Me, I don't. /1 Mirjana @sangwij Nov 24 Replying to @Radio FreeTom Maybe stop being disingenuous. The real controversy is over the second part of your statement. You could address that, if you really wanted this to end. 11:46 AM Nov 24, 2019 TweetDeck

Stephen Miller @redsteeze Think I'll just pop in and see how Tom Nichols career as a budding food critic is going- oh god... Shailja Patel @shailjapatel Nov 23 Trips over himself with eagerness to spew racist b------- in the name of "I'm going to say something controversial tee hee." Then chortles at the clapback: "People are tOuChY." Why yes, centuries of colonial slaughter, plunder, and mass starvation tend to have that effect.
