Mexican food never gives me the shits, is this just a meme promoted by people who never get enough fiber?
Yea Im pretty sure all the people who talk about mexican food and tacobell giving them shits just have shit diets. Ive never had these problems either.
Even Taco Bell doesn’t usually give me the shits, unless I drink soda from one of those nasty ass dispensers fast food joints regularly neglect cleaning.
There were some social media posts about taco bell management telling workers to still serve the food that was marked as expired, so the shits might be compromised food ingredients.
This is a real risk at pretty much any fast food place and plenty of regular restaurants. Gotta keep an eye on how the management runs stuff (or just make your own food).
Since COVID we have made 99% of our food from scratch (i.e. making my own thai curry paste from scratch, grinding my own spices, etc)…I’m now almost always very disappointed by meals outside the home…especially with the price hikes.
Yeah, $15 for a shitty burger and cold fries? No thanks.
As a long-time IBS sufferer, I’m always happy to see memes about getting the shits, because it makes me feel less alone.
Since everything seems to fuck my stomach up, I eat mexican food all the time. If I’m going to spend my evening on the toilet, I may as well enjoy myself!
Same
From personal experience, the green and red sauce causes me problems. Even Chipotle’s red and green sauce affects me, so it’s not about the cheap or expired stuff. Just my body rejecting it. Anything spicy does me in, but not all spices or hot spice.
At least it’s not all spicy things
I feel like it’s more rooted in racism than actually foods. Plenty of other cuisines have more fiber and more spices. Mexican isn’t really special in its ingredients or it’s preps.
Then why specific hate for mexican? I really can’t come with any answer than racism.
Internet is weird. Some stereotypes and racism are easily accepted and considered funny.
I’m guessing some Mexican fast food places also don’t have the greatest sanitary conditions, so are more likely to give you the poops.
I assure you: This is true of all fast food genres, they’re fuckin nasty.
Yep my kid gave their coworker a WTF when they used the restaurant toilet plunger on the veg prep sink
Some of the best Mexican food I’ve had was in Okinawa.
Where I really miss Mexican food is Spain.
I’ve had chicken sashimi in Japan. Who needs Mexican food?
“I’ll have the chicken”
“and how would you like that cooked?”
“aight I’m-a head out”
Chicken, medium rare.
Salmonella, angry from slight heat.
KFC in Brooklyn. Empty restaurant, staff noisy, raucous in back. Ordered chicken, looked kinda pink, tasted weird, but ignored instincts, kept eating, cuz hungry.
Next week I spent in apt puking guts up, sweats, feverish, feeling like death, huddled in a ball, head pressed against wall.
KFC serves authentic chicken sashimi?!
Not sure what your health board is like, but a report of this in most places gets a food investigation / health department visit.
I went to some hipster restaurant and got a fried chicken sandwich. The piece of chicken was… weird, about the size and shape of a baseball. Perfect in the outside but the inside was kind of wobbly like thick jello. I’m not sure who tf deep fries a 4 inch thick piece of chicken and doesn’t just cut it in two.
Also one time we went to this Mexican restaurant and the beef in the tacos was clearly soft and pink like it had barely been cooked at all. They told us it was their “seasoning” that made it look like that…
While the lack of mexican food in large parts of japan is indeed tragic, the fact that you can go to any countryside izakaya (pub/restaurant) and get bottomless beers and whiskey sodas for 2 hours for like 20 bucks means that the fancy toilets are getting explosive diarrhea on a regular basis.
If you dont think you cant get delicious greasy spicy food you dont know japan
My man’s hasn’t seen a bar squatter at midnight.
I hope that picture is some kind of toilet showroom and not a public toilet.
Is actually the Trial of the Toilets.
You have to use them all in sequence without your legs going numb or leaving to eat food.
Normally I would assume this is 100% sarcasm/a joke. But we are talking about Japan so I am only 90% sure it is a sarcasm/a joke.
If it was real, the walls would be glass and there would be spectators.
There would be little openings under the bowls where people could stick their heads in
What’s the point of owning a Ferrari?
Why do peacocks have such elaborate feather displays?
The point is imagining that others would look up to you*
*While in reality, literally not a single person on earth gives even the tiniest fuck about you wasting money on a useless, annoyingly noisy and wasteful fucking car. Exceptions are 5 year olds and people who never exceeded that intellectual level.
The rich don’t want to impress you, they want to impress other rich people.
I doubt that that works. Most rich people probably know very well that there’s nothing impressive about buying something.
No mexican food in japan??? OP, it’s like saying theres no japanese food in Mexico… Have you ever traveled lmao?
Tangential anecdote: when I visited San Luís Potosí, I ate several meals at a place called Café Tokio. It was good but there was nothing Japanese about it beyond the name.
It exists but it is actually quite rare.
I was in Japan this year and didn’t see any Mexican food in the 3 major cities I visited. I’m not saying it does not exist but it’s definitely not common if it does.
That also makes sense, though. Food in Japan, even the foreign food, has a specific palette it’s targeting. Mexican food is extremely different from Japanese food.
Typically, any food that is introduced to a new culture is successful once it’s adapted to that cultures palette. Any Mexican food being successful in Japan would likely be more akin to the Mexican/Asian fusion places we have in the States than traditional Mexican food.
Touge. That’s the point of a [fun car] without a track.
