I'm going to assume that by 'White People' you mean 'upper middle class'. This is based on my notion that Caucasians can suffer from cancer, starve to death, or live in Detroit with 2 crack addicts for parents.

Presumably it's a reference to this site:

http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/

And, yes, that is what it means. I guess http://stufftheuppermiddleclasslikes.com didn't test as well.

Okay... how does it reference that? I thought that site was about sandwiches or something. I'll take this as an example of mixing up race and economic class, I guess.
