I feel as a foreigner i’m missing out on a cultural touch point here… everyone loves fried chicken and watermelon. Don’t you yank red necks like these things? Like its. A stereotype that whiteys don’t eat enough fruit or white meat?

Stereotypes generally are for minorities: the majority culture usually only has few/lame stereotypes if any (eg. white men can't jump) ... because they are the dominant culture (ie. the ones making up the stereotypes about those other "weird" people). Minorities do make up stereotypes too (like "white men can't jump"), but they don't usually have the cultural power to make them into widespread stereotypes.
So yes, "yank red necks" ... and plenty of non-red-neck yanks also ... like watermelon and fried chicken. Personally, I can't stand watermelon, but my wife loves it, and we both <3 fried chicken ... but we're both white.
