Co-workers would comment on how I personally smell like garlic all the time.
(Raw garlic has a real lingering quality. I swear that it came thru me pores!)

(Raw garlic has a real lingering quality. I swear that it came thru me pores!)
I frequently eat at a local Indian place before heading back home for the weekend. when I get home, my wife complains that I ooze garlic and curry--and if I am, she wants to, too.
You may also have the sweet & sour sauce.
I'll pass on that one though.

Indeed, a lot of people are confused about what reaction they want regarding what they identify with. Often times thete is no ideal reaction to their personally identifiable affectation. Although, if there is an ambiguity, blaming "white" people is an easy, and socially acceptable, out.
Hamburgers seem to be, although not too dissimilar foods existed previously in Europe.
Incidentally, Chop Suey, despite obvious Chinese inspiration, is also of American creation.
Fried chicken seems to have become popular independently in Scotland and in Western Africa before becoming popular in the USA - by way of the African American community that resulted from slavery. Its initial popularity is linked to several circunstances resulting from slavery, as a matter of fact (for instance, it travels well in hot weather, and therefore was well suited for feeding communities segregated by slavery).

Fried chicken is Scottish, and Hamburgers as we know them are American (but the meat patty comes from Germany - Americans just added bread).
Hey, some people need to get their victimhood on.
Who are we to pop their balloons?
So I stand ready to be the evil yang guizi, taking the blame.
Meh, there's a difference between cultural appropriation, cultural diffusion, and acculturation.
Hang out with anthropologists in academia and in the field for a while and you'll understand better. There is little use taking anthro and sociological terms and utilizing them to champion oneself on social media or to demonize them here or on social media. They're simply terms for population and culture research.

Even the name is German--"Hamburg"er...It's got no ham...

Officially there's still no consensus about the origin of hamburgers.
What we know for sure is the origin of sandwiches - Lord Sandwich. Britain's biggest contribution to gastronomy
Woody Allen wrote a very funny piece about the misadventures of Lord Sandwich on his quest...Officially there's still no consensus about the origin of hamburgers.

Must find it. I just watched his latest - An irrational man. Love Woody Allen.
It was long, long ago...used to have it in a collection of his early stuff, don't know if I still do--so many books, so little idea of where any individual one of them is...
Interesting how even sausages are called frankfurters (with small F) after Frankfurt. This time it originally got ham in it (hamfutrers
).Here in Arabia we have it without pork and it comes in different flavors; beef, chicken and turkey.
