James Corden truth or dare food segment criticized for being culturally insensitive

TV host James Corden is facing backlash over a segment of his popular late night show that some have deemed culturally insensitive.

A petition has been started that calls for an end to the use of culturally significant food in a truth or dare style segment on “The Late Late Show With James Corden,” CNN reports.

During the “Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts” portion of the show, Corden asks celebrities personal or uncomfortable questions. They have to either answer the questions or eat whatever unsavory dishes sit before them.
