It’s not racist in the sense of demeaning someone on the basis of their origin. But it will be interpreted that way by all the drones who think ANYTHING that has “the N word” is a racial slur. I just don’t think it’s particularly funny or clever.
Then again, I see a few downvotes for my 1-st comment. I’m glad to see them, ’cause that means there are still rational people around here. That’s nice
Biggest issue with this is it is simply not funny. Some stereotype jokes about race or nationality or whatever can be funny and indeed not convey racism except to someone who is bound and determined to see racism in everything. This is not one of those.
Also, you are right, some stereotype jokes can be funny, and this is not one of those. This is not a stereotype joke at all, it’s a guy eating a sandwich joke, and it’s a stupid doesn’t really make sense joke. So there.

It is a very lowbrow gag. It is a racist joke too; let’s be honest. …I wonder about the terabyte just above it. Is there any chance that the prefix “tera” could be a lost to time reference (by now) to the plantation mansion home of the old South, named Tara, in the big influential classic film, “Gone With The Wind” ? …Nah, that’s a silly stretch. Just thinking out loud…
Oh, so it’s sexism now is it? We were trundling along with racism just fine until you had to make a menstruation joke. Why do you want to ruin the internet Magnus? WHY?
that’s racist… not cool

I agree with you completely.

I laughed.
