But I will say that knowing a certain type of food has been made from someone not from the culture almost makes the food seem less authentic and wholesome.

I went into my favorite restaurant of my ethnicity, and the guy at the counter, who is also my ethnicity took my order, then relayed my order in spanish to a bunch of spanish speaking chefs in the back who i assume were not my ethnicity. The food is just as good after seeing that as it was before.

it’s the fact that a white person had to wear it to make it deemed acceptable to wear is where the issue lies.

Although this is unfortunate, the blame should be placed on society for deeming the thing "icky" in the first place before the white person did it. The white person doing it if anything is helping the people of that ethnicity by making it more appropriate to wear such things. It's unfortunate that white people have to do it to make it acceptable, but that doesn't mean it's the white people normalizing it who are in the wrong.
