About what I’d expect from the propaganda wing of the Democrat Party.

I used to have to use about 10 different spices for my pumpkin bread, now I just use one spice bottle labeled "Pumpkin Spice"

Who decided to start pushing the word "colonizer"?

Are there meetings where they vote on this stuff?

ETA: I figgered out the reason: to cancel people the way they cancel slaveholders, even if the people didn't actually own slaves.

Basically every white person was (is?) a colonizer

I never understood why spices were so valuable centuries ago. Was the food that damn bland?

Who didn’t learn that spices are why explorers like Columbus were doing what they did?

These idiots needed to get out of their safe spaces and into a history book when they were 12.

I'm sure Stout can find a meme on it. Stay tuned.

Of course the author has an unpronounceable name from India.

Spices were used back then to cover the taste of rancid food.

Many voyages of discovery were made not for gold, but for spices

Spices not only flavored the food, but helped preserve it

I made some pumpkin spice colonizer pancakes a while back and they were DEE-licious. Thank you for your service, spice traders

I've vacationed in Gatlinburg. Does that count for insanely bland food?

That makes more sense
