Is Kumquat a derogatory term for Asian people?

I have an aunt who calls my cousins wife (she is Asian) "The Kumquat". I know that my aunt does not like her very much.





So I was wondering if Kumquat is a recognized derogatory term for an Asian person?? Has anybody else heard of the word being used that way?





Thanks

News to me.
Reply:Kumquat is a small fruit-bearing tree that can be found in some Asian countries. I have not heard anyone use that word to degrade Asian ppl, but I could be mistaken.
