Why does Veeky Forums get so mad about other people's eating habits?
Why does Veeky Forums get so mad about other people's eating habits?
Veeky Forums is filled with poorfag yurofags who have an inferiority complex.
Fuck you, that's why
It's extremely frustrating and insulting when you make food for someone else and they refuse to eat it. Or when you want to order food to share and they only tolerate a small subset of foods. Or when people mock gag when youre eating your own food.

Ego traps. They're rampant on every board, not just this one. It's right up there with deliberate trolling and forcing memes as the reason why finding reasonable, quality content on Veeky Forums is a needle in the haystack. Putting it another way, when people have little else to hang their hat on they'll find any little thing to feel superior about. Race, nationality, language, food, TV, music, income... you name it.

Pretty much this. All this tribal garbage on a food board where anons are genuinely interested in variations on food prep from other countries but it deginerates into a shitstorm of sturmdrumpfer nationalistic /pol/tardation.
