Re: Hmong and food
Yes, and frankly, I feel uncomfortable with the derisive tone of these
messages about the backward Hmong and their silly views on canned food.
Before making such comments, people might want to venture into
Thailand--or any other so-called "Third World" country--and attempt to
make heads or tails of the food offerings at local markets there.
