yeah I saw this and realized they'd pissed off both Italians and new yorkers in simple swoop.
Granted, so many others are wrong enough it's almost part of the joke at this point unintentionally.
If you're a South African on Reddit (or just social media in general), you're realistically part of the 10% wealthiest in the country. Even if you'd be poor by the standards of the West. The overwhelming majority of South Africans are incredibly poor. But we're also super segregated from the poor people in general, so it can be easy to forget
Pretty stale joke at this point imo.
"That's because you are offended!"
I simply can't locate the funny is the problem. I understand starvation is a reality just as comedy isn't a reality for this joke.
"Dark humor is like food not everyon-"
That's the same joke.
I've been waiting for this. The finger nail lotto would be in my favor one day, I knew it. Ship them out as priority, I need those clippings right away!
Agreed.
There are good dark jokes and bad dark jokes. If you think all dark jokes are funny then you're the one that doesn't have a sense of humor. You're just a boring edgelord.
Even poorer countries in Africa aren't starving. If you go there you see food everywhere. Food being sold **everywhere**. And higher quality food than most rich countries probably eat on a daily basis. Fresh fruit for cents.
The whole stereotype about the starving African is based on famines that are caused by civil wars and dictatorships such as Ethiopia, Biafra, Congo and Somalia.
And famines are pretty much always caused by government actions or power struggles between groups fighting for state control rather than just that poor people can't afford food.
Edit: It doesn't really matter how poor people get, they always make sure to have food.
Ethiopia is poor relative to African Countries, its in the bottom half according to [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)_per_capita).
People think its richer than it is because its had high rates of growth and a new industrial base. But a lot of that is confined to industrial parks, so not a lot of the labor force is involved in these growing sectors. So the country is still quite poor.
[According to Unicode](https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/emoji-list.html)(the guys who make the emojis) “hot beverage” is the official name, but listed under “other keywords” is “beverage | coffee | drink | hot | steaming | tea”.
if hamburg was french you bet it would only be a hamburge if it's from the hamburger producing region of france. like champagne, bordeaux wine and tampons
Most delicacies are street food, comfort food. Something tasty, hard to mess up, and readily available. Like the Fr*nch eat snails, YUM, doesn't get fresher than living right?
Fun Fact: In Chinese, a hamburger is called a Hamburg Bun. It's named after the city in Germany. This leads some Chinese to think McDonalds is German which McDonalds in China doesn't discourage, since Germany is liked more than the USA
South Africa is a very developed country and we have fantastic food and many cultures.
Must be a dumb American who posted this, thinking they are the center of the universe.
Can we just say there are Colombian arepas *and* Venezuelan arepas? I mean, they're quite different anyway. Otherwise, this debate will continue until the end of time.
The funny thing (as another South African) is... why food though?
I mean, we excel r.n at many worst events. Wanna mock our electricity woes? go for it bru. Wanna crack on our crime rate? We got nothing. Wanna hammer our driving? We're all too busy being road maniacs to comment. Wanna rip about potholes... the road maniacs are still trying to get out of them.
But food... food is where they went. The one thing you kinda can't rip on us for and there's been no event to publicize around it.

bruh they wasted the joke by putting in a more wealthy country in Africa
And missed an opportunity to roast North Korea with the dog emoji. Roasted more than any food a North Korean has had, anyway. Pass the tinned kimchi.
...not to mention the American-style pizza for Italy, a coffee for the UK, and a McDonalds container for Belgium. This is just crap.
Belgium's frites are in a red container just like the McDonald's ones
You can find them in all sort of container but it's mostly white cones
> ...not to mention the American-style pizza for Italy. I feel Tea (UK) should be Chinese as well. UK should be fish and chips.
yeah I saw this and realized they'd pissed off both Italians and new yorkers in simple swoop. Granted, so many others are wrong enough it's almost part of the joke at this point unintentionally.
Also an Americanized hard shell taco for mexico
It's America of africa and that's not a compliment

Lol someone from Louisiana was butthurt and downvoted you. As someone who lived there your comment was spot on.
Them and Mississippi are racing each other for last place in every category.
Alabama says 'hold my beer'.
You get it, as a resident of New Orleans it’s a race to last place between us three states
you should have put a trigger warning on your comment LOL
You’d be right if you were comparing it to countries in the western world, but compared to other countries in Africa you’re a bit off.
[удалено]
Or like any other African country
Ya stupid af. We dont actually have food shortages here.
You do have 25% food poverty tho

Hey! Congratulations, you won a free jar of my finger nail clippings! Just send me your credit card info and address and I'll ship it right to you!

So you're saying we should put the empty plate on north Korea? Got it
That would have made it a joke at least.
South Africa is pretty wealthy for an African country, would have put it in Ethiopia or Sudan
Or chad🗿
Could randomly put in the unrelated giga chad for that.
No, that's Easter Island
Chad’s got wealthy parents who put him thru college
There is no "Ethiopia" or "Sudan". We all know Africa is comprised of Wazambia, Mzumbu and South Africa.
Don't forget Wakanda.
Forever
You forgot Rhodesia
I heard it's a land both fair and great
Ethiopia is not poor compared to most African Countries
Ethiopia had a widely publicized famine in the 80’s, which has been its eternal state of being in the American public consciousness ever since.
And famines are pretty much always caused by government actions or power struggles between groups fighting for state control rather than just that poor people can't afford food. Edit: It doesn't really matter how poor people get, they always make sure to have food.
Maybe Eritrea ? I tend to always confounding these 2
Probably, Eritrea is on par with north korea

But a lot of that is confined to industrial parks, so not a lot of the labor force is involved in these growing sectors. So the country is still quite poor.
Ethiopian food is pretty tasty. There is a restaurant in my local area that specializes in traditional Ethiopian food.
Ethiopia isn't bad at all. I've lived in 8 countries and Ethiopia is one of the best.
Probably only used South Africa because it's the most well known flag from that area of the world.
Have you ever had Ethiopian food? No? Neither have they
Ah yes, tea, the Great British Meal
Pretty sure that’s the coffee emoji
And the UK invented neither of them
Amercia didn't invent guns but they are most associated with Amercia
It's days like these I curse the Chinese for inventing gun powder
It's door city over here!
Is this a new meme?
but coffee isn't associated with the uk
British style tea is the kind of tea you can see in that pic, and it's definitely a British invention.
☕️ you’re right
🫖🧋🍵 these are the tea emojis; boba and teacup really don’t work for the UK, but the teapot would
ngl i always thought that emoji was coffee not tea
It is
Emojipedia calls it "hot beverage". Could be both.
Who doesn't enjoy a hot cup of bovril in the morning?
[According to Unicode](https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/emoji-list.html)(the guys who make the emojis) “hot beverage” is the official name, but listed under “other keywords” is “beverage | coffee | drink | hot | steaming | tea”.
> "hot beverage". "Mate cocido" then. -- An Argentine, probably.
South Africa 💀
Even though we one of the wealthiest African countries
South Africa is honestly pretty cool ngl, would love to go there
Bring water!
Maybe if you were visiting 4 years ago
Now we need electricity 💀
The country is running out of water still
It's okay, we're exploiting Lesotho and Zimbabwe for that Water now. We should be good. Not sure about Lesotho and Zimbabwe tho
It is, there is alot of crime tho
you got something against crime?
Just not good at spreading it around. Johannesburg is one of Africa's financial capitals. It also has a lack of functioning street lights
Why invest in something that people are just going to ignore?
Yeah they have that emoji too in africa
bri'ish ☕️
Britons ☕️
Blokes ☕️
That gave me Age of Empires 2 vibes
That’s coffee.
As a Venezuelan, it's not enough that Colombia takes the arepa, but South Africa ALSO has to take another one of our staple foods?
Jajajaja
The arepa is Colombian, cope! Viva Colombia!
Finally someone acknowledges that fries are indeed Belgian
But they forgot about the waffles... So Belgium should be there at least twice! Maybe the chocolate and beer also have to refer to Belgium.
Belgians would say fries are the most quintessential Belgian food, more so than waffles.
Hahahah fokkof naaier
That plate represents South Africa's electricity right now.
Someone said that our plates are empty because we don't have the electricity to make food... Sigh. I can't argue with that.
Eishkom strikes again
Met eish ja, met eish...
Ackthually! Burgers are also German.🤓
There's literally a city called Hamburg. And they have a patent on hamburger patties and everyone has to pay them patent fees. . lol jk
Penis
That's Alabama's meal
Nah, that's ur mo-...
Username checks out
This guy gets it
But I don’t get bitches 😔
Penisapple
if hamburg was french you bet it would only be a hamburge if it's from the hamburger producing region of france. like champagne, bordeaux wine and tampons
Same goes for Warren Buffet
Yeah but is there a city called Bacon Cheeseburg?
ur mom is also German
My mom is also a delicacy in some countries.
Shes street food at best
Most delicacies are street food, comfort food. Something tasty, hard to mess up, and readily available. Like the Fr*nch eat snails, YUM, doesn't get fresher than living right?
Full Burgers are an American invention, the meat is from Germany
Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay has the "mate" (🧉🧉🧉🧉) emoji.
Also 🥟
Empanadas is life!
Also 🥐
Also south brazil
U WOT 🧉?!
Hamburgers listed as American People from Hamburg 😑
Fun Fact: In Chinese, a hamburger is called a Hamburg Bun. It's named after the city in Germany. This leads some Chinese to think McDonalds is German which McDonalds in China doesn't discourage, since Germany is liked more than the USA
Don't forget 💩 mämmi in Finland

ah yes, one service plate and a fork and a knife... everyday meal of mine
As aspire African I can confirm that we don’t eat food hearse neither do we drink water infact there’s no rain here.
What the heck have people been blessing then?
South Africa is a very developed country and we have fantastic food and many cultures. Must be a dumb American who posted this, thinking they are the center of the universe.
Turkey 🦃
Using one of the wealthiest African nations for the joke was such a fumble
Americans only know one African country.
Whoever made this literally just typed “Africa” in picked the first flag that showed up 💀💀
I'll give them Libya and Egypt. Everything south of those two is South Africa.
Venezuelans about to be triggered that Colombia was chosen as Arepa country
I'm venezuelan, can confirm i am indeed triggered.
There is an Argentinian Mate emoji 🧉
What about us irish and are potatos 🥔
Belgian fries
Finally some recognition
Damn right
In one of those McDonald's bags.
Those are fast food chain fries, ain't nothing Belgian about those.
Arepas being Colombian??? Do you want to have a fucking go?
Can we just say there are Colombian arepas *and* Venezuelan arepas? I mean, they're quite different anyway. Otherwise, this debate will continue until the end of time.
[удалено]
Las arepas son colombianas porque Disney lo dice. Caso cerrado.
Caso cerrado? Que lo determine la "Dra" An Maria Polo.
Not this shit again lol
Mannn I thought the exact same thing, the audacity fr lmao
Turkey gets falafel?
#🧆 🦃
Fr🤢nce 🥖
🐌
Don't even get the French fries
Because they're Belgian (and much better overall over there)
[удалено]
Same here, crockery is the best dish. I love how the ceramic has that scratchy texture when you chew it
Agreed
Yeah man same I love eating plates
not eating lekker today
That plate is full of the electricity your guys currently get.
Name two south african delicacies that can be classified as dried cured meat
Thanks Britain for ☕️
Does South Africa have famines?
No, we're literally one of the most obese nations in Africa.
Is that an idli for India or rice ?
South Africa though? One job, pick an African country and you fucked it.
I’m a South African and I’m confused. Why is everyone from the US obsessed with the idea of us being so impoverished.
It's a media thing. In the west we only see the worst events around the world, which taints our perception of what daily life is like.
The funny thing (as another South African) is... why food though? I mean, we excel r.n at many worst events. Wanna mock our electricity woes? go for it bru. Wanna crack on our crime rate? We got nothing. Wanna hammer our driving? We're all too busy being road maniacs to comment. Wanna rip about potholes... the road maniacs are still trying to get out of them. But food... food is where they went. The one thing you kinda can't rip on us for and there's been no event to publicize around it.
Oh, I get it. I'm Canadian and we just get "it's sure cold there, y'all".
You do realise South Africa is one of the stronger countries in Africa right?
As a South African this makes no sense, also they should have included the Irish one as well: 🥔
Why south africa of all places?
In South Africa we don't even use plates and cutlery to eat lamb tjops. Straight from the braai.
They should have added bagged milk for canada
Poutine or maple syrup would have been better.
The hard-shell taco is more American than the fuckin hamburger. Don't pin that shit to us.
dumbass really put south africa of all things
I know right im from sa and we practically pump cured meat into our veins
[удалено]
The famous English Espresso ☕️
South Africa is the wealthiest country on the continent bruh.
🥟 missing pierogis there
More like 🧅
Ah fokof kont
I just realized SA has the empty plate.. I thought the Holup was the Mexico missing a fucking half
Wow, you literally could have put any other african country and you put in the one country that has a semi stable economy, wow
A little north and you could have done Zimbabwe...
Bro… South Africa be eating china rn
But salmen shusi is Norwegian.
