Obviously tone deaf AF,

How specifically is it tone deaf?

Is it racist to celebrate Italian heritage by serving pasta?

Or Mexican cuisine with Taco Tuesday?

Absolutely not. It’s the exact opposite.

We have to stop tolerating this offense culture driving our thoughts, politics and discourse.

It's tone deaf because it was obviously going to get picked up and ran with in social and news media and cause an apology etc. I remember when Kmart dropped some golfer for saying "is the Masters going to serve fried chicken and watermelon?" as comments towards Tiger Woods.

In the South we don't see that meal as racist because there's almost no one down here who wouldn't look at that and say hell yeah. In the North it's considered a slur.
