I think she should give her critics a complimentary bag full of ... chicken ... to eat.

If she moves her food truck to Austin, its embraced. In San Antonio or Dallas....not so much.

There was a band called NWA stood for 'n-word's with attitude. How was that not offensive?

Our society is falling apart. Granted the food truck in question is far from msm, but there was a post earlier about minorities controlling the majority.

I think this plays into that.

We have a food truck up here in Albany, NY that is called Wandering Dago that is all over the news. They were banned from Saratoga Race Track but New York State because it was deemed offensive.

The case is now in the court system.

Because she's also selling Asian-style fried chicken, and it's her bestseller. So, that's Cock (as in chicken) + Asian (as in the style it's cooked) = Cockasian. It's really a very clever name because it works on several levels. It covers her best-selling dish and the fact that's she's a white girl selling Asian style food, plus it's got that hint of naughty.

That's a brilliant name! Caucasian/Asain fusion that serves chicken. I think people will come out in support of this ultimately is it's not offensive in any way. It's not like she's selling sex products or tanning lotion; it's food that's totally relevant to the animal and the ethnicities.

Wonderful harmless wordplay in my eyes.
