Can I Get a Watermelon With That?

I think that so many people know about stereotypes because of what they hear and see around them. I don't know why some things are even considered stereotypes some times... like how all black people love to eat fried chicken. I don't see the stereotype, I mean doesn't everyone like to eat fried chicken? Also people thinking that all middle-eastern people are terrorists, just because of what a group of them did. People will have to learn that stereotypes can effect how people feel about themselves and sometimes it may lead to horrible outcomes.
