I hope the reference to Anglo-Saxons liking their mashed potatoes was an oversight and a language issue. I am Anglo-Saxon, if one refers to my mother tongue, but my ancestors would be horrified. I like mashed potatoes, too, as do many other people, especially in canteen lines where they are sometimes one of the less noxious choices.
The menu you profiled was from Texas:
“As of 2003, DISD was 58% Hispanic, 34% African American, 6% White, and 2% Asian and Native American.” from Wikipedia regarding the Dallas public school system. Many are quite possibly native speakers of English, but probably not white, depending on your definition.
But I did read the post!
Hi Marianne,
Good point!!! Thanks
