I have had the luck and the privilege, inclination, all of that to share a meal with so many different people across so many different cultures. I hate this labeling thing, racial this and that. These are convenient ways to mark some one or something as different, like a lab specimen. Eat what you want with who you want, talk with people who interest you, learn from those worth learning from, revel in the joy of difference.
I wrote that to myself, because I often forget.
