One hilarious scene in Anthony Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential is the description of an "Oriental" class at the Culinary Institute of America, with a Chinese man resentful about the Rape of Nanking as the instructor. Tasked with providing an overview of Asian cuisine, he dismisses sushi as "Japanese shit!"
