From a black perspective, do white people really smell like wet chicken? I found that line pretty damned enlightening! Never heard that one before - funny stuff, but also interesting, how they said their smell hung in the air. Do white people have a distinctive smell?

I remember back in Junior High / High School we were watching this when it came out, and a friend of mine did in fact confirm the difference in smell.

I'm white. I smell like an Italian Hoagy.

My niece is black; she smells like Coconut Oil.
It's nice.

It's a sandwich.
