White people just aren't used to eating beans because it lacks the taste of suffering, so anytime they eat beans they shit their pants

In general most Americans don't get enough fiber and when you combine that with the fact that a lot of Americans think black pepper makes food spicy you get a combination that turns even the most mild spice and beans into something they feel is traumatic.

Personally Taco Bell doesn't upset my stomach, it after one of my friends sent me this meme I had to share

Edit: Or at least that's my experience as an American.

Gonna say we got taco bell in the UK and have no issue

We do eat baked beans though

I've eaten Taco Bell in the US and the UK, both had no noticeable effect on my digestive system.

It tasted better in the US, though the ingredients seemed identical here. I think my cheesy gordita crunch just wasn't heated up enough for the cheese to melt between the tacos

"the taste of suffering" Perfect synopsis of the "white people food" I eat on the daily.

I'm not even vegan, but some people just have an obsession with needing to eat dead things. Like people who choose to eat insects for environment purposes instead of just eating some damn beans. Humans having regular access to meat like we do now is a fairly new concept in the west. Being mostly vegetarian because of food supply was the norm for hundreds of years. Us eating so much meat now is historically weird.
