Arielle Haspel’s Lucky Lee’s restaurant at centre of controversy as critics claim cultural appropriation and unfair stereotyping

Controversy over a New York City restaurant owner who touted her “clean” American-Chinese cuisine and derided Chinese dishes as swimming in “globs of processed butter”, sodium and MSG is renewing a long-simmering debate about stereotyping and cultural appropriation in the restaurant world.

Lol sorry-but-not-sorry public apology... But at least now we know

Anybody 'hurt' by cultural insensitivity is just pathetic. Poor little things. Cultural appropriation is just as equally weak minded nonesense. What only the Chinese can offer Chinese meals? Absurd. Grow up.

Yeah.... Not white. Shoeish. Get your facts right, Guardian.

Says American-Chinese food not Chinese. Chinese restaurants are notorious for being unhygienic in the UK anyway and if you see real China u will be scared! Nevertheless I ate delicious food in China. No butter.

Holy crap. Deriding the quality of cheap, westernised fast food versions of Chinese dishes is not the same as saying 'everybody of Chinese origin is dirty'.

Seems like an unfortunate semantic coincidence. “Clean eating” is a term like paleo/vegan/low carb, and has nothing to do with the cuisine of certain cultures. Simulating the sweet, starchy, crispy joys of Chinese food would be very desirable to ppl who follow clean-eating.

Why apologize?Review EVERY national cuisine for peasants & find the same. Southern food? Just put the butter & lard straight on your heart & die. Yiddish cuosime, same. Italaian pasta dishes swimming in ceam, butter... Indian/EastAfrican ghee. Well Brits hv no cuisine, but French

Chinese food is dirty as shit. What’s the problem here?

So now making ethnic food that isn’t authentic is racist. Yet for some reason Taco Bell still exists.

If it was a black New York restaurateur touting ‘clean’ Chinese food would this be news?

she's just sorry she got called out

New York City declares emergency over measles outbreakUnvaccinated people in the affected areas have been ordered to get vaccinated for the virus or face fines of up to $1,000 (£765). Meanwhile President Trump declares measles don't exist because science isn't real. Brings back the debate about vaccination. So a lower rate of vaccinations are causing a higher rate of people catching measles? It's almost as if that was entirely predictable. Cheers, idiot anti-vaxxers.
