Claim: Kids who say 'yuck' may be racist
Jul 7 12:42 PM US/Eastern
LONDON, July 7 (UPI) -- Toddlers who say "yuck" when given flavorful foreign food may be exhibiting racist behavior, a British government-sponsored organization says.

The London-based National Children's Bureau released a 366-page guide counseling adults on recognizing racist behavior in young children, The Telegraph reported Monday.

The guide, titled Young Children and Racial Justice, warns adults that babies must also be included in the effort to eliminate racism because they have the ability to "recognize different people in their lives."

The bureau says to be aware of children who "react negatively to a culinary tradition other than their own by saying 'yuck'."

"Racist incidents among children in early years settings tend to be around name-calling, casual thoughtless comments and peer group relationships," the guide says.

Staff members are advised not to ignore racist actions and to condemn them when they occur.

It’s a wonder you idiots ever defeated the Romans and got your land back.

Any other White men had enough of this self-hating, anti-white insanity from our hired civil servants? Enough is enough. I for one will no longer tolerate “tolerance” as it inevitably destroys my own genetic pool of related Homo sapiens. Let the melanin-gifted work to achieve their own respect and make their own accomplishments. Being practical for a moment, Why must their advance come at our expense? Are they that incompetent? None the less, I will subsidize my own dispossession no longer.

If I were a Brit, I would be saying “YUCK” to the dumb-yucks that allowed a British Government SPONSORED organization to spend money on crap like this. By the way, I love fish & chips and a nice pint of Ale

Multicultural nonsense like this is why muslims have taken over Western Europe and Mo-HAM-ed is one of the fastest growing and most popular names in Great Britain! Seems Caucasians are doing a damed good job facilitating their own demise.

“Toddler’s” do not like ALOT of foods. Why is this called “racist” this is insane! Not too many kids like peas & carrots! They usually do not “spiced” foods at all. What were the foods offered? That is the question? Spiced hot curry? Sushi? Come on media REPORT ALL of th STUDY! RACISCM MY AS*! It is called being a kid!

Well, since I have often refused to eat certain traditional dishes from my own ethnic background, I guess that not only makes me a racist, but self-hating as well. Who comes up with this nonsense and why are they given any air time at all?

Governmnet beaurcrats: I guess you cannot fix stupid.

How did the British Empire survive this long? What a bunch of wimpy self-haters. I give them 50 more years and they will be extinct. Their country will be GIVEN AWAY to every imigrant group that shows up on their shores.

9. Albert Sharpton   July 7th, 2008 - 10:30 am

I love almost all foreign/ethnic foods and I am a racist. So what’s the point. Morons.

10. ChuckB   July 7th, 2008 - 10:30 am

Good grief! Charlie Brown. My God, talk about thought control. So, what is a Muslim’s rejection of pork? Umm, bacon!

No wonder the UK is going down the toliet. I would suggest that if there is any normal Brits left in a few years, they had better swim over here and get some good Southern cooking. At least we don’t eat eyeballs and nasty worms, and use forks and knives to boot.

12. Ray Ru   July 7th, 2008 - 10:32 am

Great, now culinary discernment is racist? One small step for diversity, one giant leap backwards for man.

The British need their own “Boston Tea Party” and kick out leftist tyranny. Call it the “Thames Toss Out”. What is wrong with your people?

14. Steven Brown, USA   July 7th, 2008 - 10:32 am

Everything now a days can be thought about as racist, if the person is white, while the exact same behavior by anyone else is considered normal human behavior. Double standards need to end, period.

15. WarEagle   July 7th, 2008 - 10:32 am

What a waste of public funds. 366 pages of this tripe! I feel sorry for you Brits, but don’t worry, we are close behind in this kind of government-led stupidity.

16. Peter Fulton Foss   July 7th, 2008 - 10:34 am

Politicians rise to their level of incompetence!

17. zimrico   July 7th, 2008 - 10:35 am

Good Lord!! The English Nation has gone completely down the toilet.
How much longer can America hold out from this insanity??

18. Justine   July 7th, 2008 - 10:35 am

Have you people lost your mind?
A toddler is not racist.
If they don’t like the taste of something they tell you.
Wake up and get off your racist crap.

19. Kerry   July 7th, 2008 - 10:36 am

Ok, i am English and personally hate many English dishes…does that make me racist toward myself?? Toddlers do not know what racism is…nor should they…it is conveluded idiots (like this organisation) that will cause England to fall…someone needs to step up to the plate!

20. Neal E   July 7th, 2008 - 10:36 am

Don’t laugh to hard my fellow Americans. We are looking at our own future right across the pond if we don’t take our politically correct blinders off.
