i think the question of "who cooked the food" likely came up because Kitty Cone has said that in most of the (predominately white) organizations at the time were very chauvinist, and she didn't realize that until the 504 demonstration, where women were at the forefront. Elaine's outrage is valid, because people do assume that the militancy of the BPP means they were gender-segregated, but it wouldn't have been uncommon for an organization that started in 1966.
