Austin Fried Chicken

Welp, here’s another “black people love fried chicken, right?” mistake.

The cafeteria at NBC served a menu of Fried Chicken, collared greens and jalapeno cornbread in honor of Black History, according to a photo taken by Questlove, the drummer for the band the Roots.

According to the Huffington Post, someone tweeting under @nbcu, who claims to be Kevin Goldmanclaims, NBC’s VP of Communications, said “The sign in the NBCU cafeteria has been removed. We apologize for anyone who was offended by it.”

Fried chicken coincidence? Perhaps, but that Aquafina? Now that’s just racist.
