Food Critic Claims Korean Fried Chicken Originated from Black People

June 23, 2022
Netflix’s Iron Chef: Quest for an Iron Legend co-host, Alton Brown, dropped some questionable knowledge bombs during the “Battle Tailgate” episode. Brown claimed Korean fried chicken is the best because it was taught to them by African-American soldiers.
The clip has since gone viral and was compounded by “Foundational Black Americans” who claim all Asian achievements and their success is because of “superior African intellect.”
In the episode, Brown and co-host Kristen Kish (who is Korean) were observing challenger chef Esther Choi and iron chef Marcus Samuelsson battle it out in the kitchen.




Brown noticed Choi dropping stuffed chicken wings into the fryer and suggested she was planning on serving judges Korean stuffed fried chicken wings.
“Looks like they’re going to fry those stuffed wings,” Brown says in the clip.
“Ugh! Korean fried chicken is by far the best fried chicken on the face of the earth,” Kish replied.
Brown immediately interrupted Kish and stated: “And do you know why? Because it was taught to Korean cooks by African-American GIs after the World War.”

American soldiers arrived in Korea during the Korean War in 1950, not after a “World War.”

Korean fried chicken existed as far back as the 15th century during the Goryeo Dynasty. The fried chicken was cooked and served with seasoning made from vinegar and soy sauce called Pogye, according to Korea Net.
Someone always has to say “Asians stole their ideas from Black people.”



We get a lot of messages from “Foundational Black Americans” who always claim Asian technology today is “actually stolen Black technology.”
Don’t you find that odd? Knowledge can be stolen and those who lost the knowledge are unable to duplicate their supposed stolen knowledge?
If everything is stolen, why is President Biden giving back-room blowj*bs to Taiwan’s TSMC and South Korea’s Samsung to build semiconductor factories in Arizona and Texas? Shouldn’t African-Americans already have that knowledge to keep that tech in America?

Why did President Obama block Samsung’s attempt to prevent Apple from using 3G in 2013? Doesn’t that knowledge already exist amongst Foundational Black Americans? According toForbes, Obama vetoed Samsung’s ITC victory over Apple.
If Toyota, the #1 car company in the world, stole technology from African-Americans, why can’t a Foundational Black American-led car company take Toyota on?

:lol:
 
As the United States flexed its military muscles during the 20th century, black GIs were thrust into contact with epicureans abroad. And so they taught the world about delicacies like American-style barbecue, chitterlings, and fried chicken. Motivated to settle overseas by the enduring racism within the United States and the relative social acceptance African Americans received in other countries, many former U.S. servicemen and women opened up restaurants, shared their beloved recipes, and turned their deeply regional soul food into a global phenomenon.

Soul food went on the move within the U.S. military. African-American troops have a long history of fighting on foreign soil, starting with the Spanish American War in 1898, when thousands of black soldiers helped secure victories in Cuba and the Philippines. By World War I, the number of enlisted African-American men and women had swelled to several hundred thousand. Both white and black troops serving overseas missed the comfort foods they had loved at home in the American South, and they lobbied for their military rations to be more soulful. The Kansas City Star reported one success story in September 1918:

“From the negro and white Southern soldiers who are serving in France comes the cry for yellow yams. The beneficent American government harkened to the desire that was wafted across the sea, and within the next few weeks the toothsome sweet potato will be upon the bill of fare in all the Army camps of this Nation in the fighting, training and working areas across the water . . . That the negro soldiers in France will welcome the arrival of yellow yams is not to be doubted. The letters of many of these men dwell upon the fond memories that they have of the yellow yams in the home life that they left behind.”
 
Yo... I'm on the fence about this fact.. i mean.. we as black people are the most creative, diverse, smart, loving, careful, etc, etc. that existed on the face of the earth. but our history has routinely been destroyed, stolen, hidden, buried and we don't even want to learn it to keep it alive, so accepting we cooked fried chicken so damn well, a whole country learned it from us, does not make me feel any better. Just saying yo!

I love smart stupid mofokrs that try and discredit shit

Keeping to their part of the bargain, U.S. forces entered southern Korea on September 8, 1945. Over the next few years, the situation in Korea steadily worsened.


And we all know the World War ended in 1945.
