'Ethnic' is such a daft word in this context. Crime section aside though, I'd let it slide.

Omg dayo so true. Lechera took me to an Asian market she frequents and I got lots of stuff. For one thing I KILLED that bag of seaweed crackers on the train.

I love Asian supermarkets but I've got to admit that I go in with a certain air of "whoa look at all this weird shit I don't understand, what the heck even is this" which, ok, is kind of racist, since we are on the looking for things to be racist thread
but also I come home with delicious foodstuffs often for cheap

I love asian supermarkets and always hit them when I travel as I can't get a lot of stuff where I live. I've had at least a couple times when people would stare at me while trying to decipher which exact type of pickled vegetable to buy, or tell me which brand of kecap manis is shitty and which to buy instead.
I've had a couple of older women at the checkouts actually get sort of mean, asking me if I knew what I was buying, why I was buying it, what I was going to do with it, and how the hell do I know how to cook Korean or Vietnamese food?

What I bought: hazelnut oil, seaweed crackers, two cans of panang curry, a kid's toy, some chili sauce that didn't have msg on the label and the label was a cool design. I would have gotten more but the lugging, the lugging.
