Then the rich people appropriate the dishes of the workers and make them unaffordable. The wealthy produce very little of their own cuisine just as they produce very little of their own labor.

Oxtails have entered the chat.

Tbh that's exactly what I was thinking of as well, for generations it has been a stable of minority communities and workers but is slowly being turned fancy. I don't want expensive oxtail, I want real authentic oxtail from a local Dominican restaurant.

There was a Chad/Virgin meme about Mexican restaurants.

An expensive Mexican restaurant has 20 kinds of expensive tequila and charges $50.00 for three tacos.

An authentic place has two kinds of beer and you can't finish $50.00 worth of food by yourself.

I seriously miss oxtail. You can barely find it at any price anymore.

Hopefully we poors will create a new dish out of them.

Remember when cooking fatty meats cook low and slow to properly render out the fat.
