I don't think there's a full understanding of what cultural appropriation is here. It's not somebody cooking the food they want and putting their own spin on things whatsoever. What it IS is when some discovers a food from a different culture and then sells it and says this is ours now and they make money off it without crediting the culture or the people who created it in the first place. This is not cultural appropriation bc she knows this shakshuka is N. African and so do you. She knows and acknowledges the bibimbap is Korean. An example of cultural appropriation with food is when a Western magazine said try our new Brioche-like donuts when they were really talking about Mexican conchas. Other examples that I came up with after writing this: fake luaus on the mainland, Tucker Carlson saying Americans own tacos now, and also see the many examples Anthony Bourdain has about cultural appropriation in food culture.

What she is doing is discovering herself. Cultural appropriation is when someone borrows from another culture to make a quick buck and doesn't respect that culture. It's all about respect. As long as someone is cooking out of love and celebrating that culture with their own twist, it's great. When some corporate entity tries to pass off something as a fad for a quick buck, that's wrong. Danny Bowien is making his interpretation of sichuan cuisine and doing an awesome job. Ivan ramen is putting a jewish twist on ramen and making an amazing bowl of ramen that is simultaneously japanese and jewish. It's awesome to see people exploring food with passion!

1: 09 Her parents buying a house in Vancouver and then going back to Hong Kong isn't all that unusual. Canada saw a lot of that in the years leading up to the Brits handing HK back to China. This gave the families who could afford it 'a way out' if the new Chinese government of HK made their lives too hard. In the end she wasn't abandoned. her family was well off and she was taken care of. #LeGourmetTV

Over here in Penang, cultural appropriation is the reason why we have some of the best foods and the people stand strong together. We don't see Malay, Indian or Chinese. We see friends and family. We also learn recipes from each other and put our own spin on it: P

As usual, Lucas brings the truth. Many who scream cultural appropriation have no idea what they're talking about. With respect to food, cultural appropriation has been key to cuisine evolution and migration for a thousand years.

I hope the SJWs' brains melt over cultural appropriation committed by a non-White person. The different levels of oppression in their Oppression Olympics will hopefully cause the whole premise to short circuit.
