If people want the stereotypes to go away they should...?

That's dumb about not eating at a certain place because people want to associate black people with the food there...And I know people joke around like that because they have to make light of it to keep sane in the world we live in. I understood your point, about avoiding what we're expected to do/say/dress/etc, but the thing is, if it's not one thing people will associate us with another. Does that make sense? Like, okay all black people stop eating KFC (not that we all do - I don't!), so all of us head to McDonald's. Then what will be the new stereotype? We all eat at McDonald's! Ya know? So it's just a vicious cycle.
