Sliver, I think you are confusing Discrimination vs Racism and thus people are having a hard time understanding what you are trying to suggest.

If he was clearly the best candidate for the job and lost it to a less qualified individual because of his odour from the ethnic food he eats then I would say there is a case of discrimination.

This has nothing to do with poor hygien and everything to do with cultural differences.
