Cheese is saddened when any family or child has a less than perfect experience.

Cheese released a statement saying, in part: 'Chuck E. She then says that the restaurant 'insisted' her daughter take a picture with Chuck E.Ĭhuck E.

He just put his hand in and down acting like he didn't see her.' 'When she turned around she was excited to see him, she saw that he was giving all the other kids high fives,' Muhammad told ABC7. The character clearly high fives several other kids before walking past the young girl. This latest video shows the woman's daughter popping up and down before attempting to high five Chuck E. It comes after a similar incident where two other black girls from New York were apparently snubbed by Rosita at the Sesame Street theme park in Langhorne, outside Philadelphia.īut many have questioned whether the alleged acts of racism could instead be chalked up to the fact that staff members are often wearing unwieldy costumes with low visibility - therefore making them unable to see every child reaching out for attention. Muhammad, who goes by Umm Safa on Twitter, claims when she confronted the person playing the musical mouse, he ignored her and the restaurant's manager, who she named as Angie Valasquez, 'made excuses for him'. 'As you can see, he gives all of the kids and PURPOSELY ignored my black baby.' Muhammad wrote of the incident: 'My 2-year-old was racially discriminated against.' She posted a video of the encounter to Twitter which shows the employee walk past as a small child holds her hand out for a high-five. Cheese allegedly ignored her daughter during a meet-and-greet period. The incident on July 30 occurred when Natyana Muhammad took her children to the chain's location in Wayne, New Jersey - and the employee playing Chuck E.

Cheese restaurant in New Jersey has become the latest costumed character to be accused of racism.
