A race-based topic.

Are you saying Galicia is claiming racism? She wants to be on a rice box? Unfair
discrimination against people named Galicia? What is Galicia’s ethnicity anyway?

Uncle Ben is on the rice box because they used to grow rice in S Carolina where Uncle
Ben used to serve “the quality” at table, from a silver salver. He loved it. It was indoor work and people used to enjoy his quips. Yay Uncle Ben.
Here’s the song from the old radio ads:
(sung by a sultry female voice:)
Ca’lahn-aaaa,ah,
The extra, long grain, raaaaaa-aice.

I like the breakfast cereal Wheaties because they put anybody and everybody who’s an athlete, irregardless of their race, on the boxes. And it’s good eating too, in my opinion.
