Viewers were angered by The View and called it out for 'privilege' (ABC)Another called out the segment for its privilege, as it shared: "One would think privileged people could eat elsewhere instead of in front of the camera.

The anger from viewers is another backlash in recent days, after viewers slammed the show's recent features including a debate between host Joy Behar and actress Whoopi Goldberg.
