There was one in my city and the SJW crowd freaked out and demanded it's closure because they serve... Wait for it... Game meat! And people were offended.
Just thinly veiled racism if you ask me.
The biggest issue they had was that the owner would buy game meat, like a Caribou leg, and prepare the meat in front of customers to show them the process of carving and cleaning the meat. This offended some people as being cruelty to animals somehow even though the meat was already dead.
Anyways, protesters surrounded his place and he responded by carving his raw game meat right at the front window so they could see lol
Another layer of racism that I notice is how much of those culinary traditions ended segregated from what your typical person eats in Canada/USA. In a way that I don't even think that they notice.
The very fact that your typical Canadian/American needs a Native American restaurant to experience their cultural impact shows that all babble about "melting pots" is nothing but a farce over a bunch of segregated bowls. They never ate each others' culture until they stopped caring who's who.
(You probably get it though, based on your other comment.)
