![]() ![]() The new sandwich, costing £4.39, features two crispy Chicken Selects topped with a spicy jerk sauce, bacon, pepper jack cheese, onion and lettuce in a sourdough bun. The burger's jerk sauce contains tomato paste, Habanero chilli puree, caramelised sugar syrup, spices, garlic, ginger and basil, according to the McDonald's website. [The ingredients in a real jerk marinade are allspice - a dried unripe berry of the South American native plant Pimenta dioica - and Scotch bonnet peppers.] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-Sandwich.html Any of you tried this new £4:39 Jerk? |

I mean they have been doing it for years but now people are only coming out the woodwork to complain? Their main issue should be it tastes nothing like Jerk Sauce

Lol at people thinking "cultural appropriation" is actually a thing, or something to be taken seriously or moaned about.
Anyone can make or sell anything they want, it's fine. Nothing wrong with appreciating and enjoying things from other places.

No one in their right mind would care about this. It's just another gimmick burger, McDonalds does this all the time.

This really isn't an example of appropriation but to make out that it doesn't exist is just ignorant. Last edited by Tom4784; 26-11-2020 at 09:16 PM. |

Is there any point when you obviously find it a joke because you don't believe it exists? You're perfectly entitled to ignorance, it's not down to me to educate you.
If you want an example though, look at the Kardashians, they built their wealth by appropriating both black and gay culture and then often tried to copywrite it as their own afterwards. |

I remember people pitched a bitchfit because one of the interchangeable Kardashians had dreadlocks or braids or something ![]() Like I've literally never heard a reason that people shouldn't use things from different cultures. It doesn't stop anyone else from being able to use them.

I agree, they shouldn't copyright it because it isn't theirs, it's everybody's.

You're still not getting it, and I don't think there's nothing I can say that will make you understand either, simply because you don't want to. You are perfectly entitled to be wrong and I'm just gonna leave it at that.

So your saying a Kimono which has been a Japanese clothing garment for centuries also belongs to Britain because a few people wanted to be edgy and get them and use them for what its not meant to be used for ?

A Kimona is for special occasions such as weddings and parties not to be used when your feeling cold and want to wrap up its rude and ignorant and very disrespectful to Japanese culture

Using a ridiculous accusation of cultural appropriation as evidence of it "not existing" is like using a bad example of racism as evidence racism doesn't exist.
