NBC is properly called out for having a “racist menu” – Way to go, IDIOTS
This is CUH-RAAAZY. Someone help me out--what YEAR is this again?? The drummer for The Roots (who are way more than just "Jimmy Fallon's House Band" on NBC, y'all), found this sign in the NBC cafeteria. I KNOW, right??

More good press for NBC today! At right is a photo snapped and posted on Twitter by Questlove, drummer for the Roots, NBC employee, and leader of the Late Night With Jimmy Fallon band. According to a person tweeting under the handle "nbcu" and purporting to be NBC's vice-president of communications Kevin Goldman, "The sign in the NBCU cafeteria has been removed. We apologize for anyone who was offended by it."
Good Lord, NBC sucks.
I LOVE this song, "The Seed", by the Roots.
Stupid NBC.

Boys…that TOTALLY made my bladder leak from laughter. Actually, I’d PREFER that menu over some lame salad ANY DAY. LOVE me some southern food.
Meh. You do indeed have a point.
