Adrianna TanGerman tourist sued a New York taqueria for salsa that was too spicy. Judge says ‘the spice is often the point’
He should keep this up and keep suing people, he will become American in no time
I hope he never goes to Thailand
Granny Art (Shrimp) (Joni)@skinnylatte jfc. Did he hear about the woman who suffered burns from hot coffee at McDonalds and think he could win this?
I ate at Los Tacos and don't remember it being particularly spicy and I don't have a high spice threshold.
Filed under: people are fucking weird.
Oh, and the judge is right. Thank god.
Maikel 🇪🇺 🇪🇸@artcollisions her case was different though she had proper burns, it was a lot hotter than it should have been. That's why she won, she was right and not exaggerating.
Hence why now there's a thermometer inside the milk container. Fuck knows how many lives she's saved.
McDonalds made it seem like a joke, this looks nothing like a joke to anyone eyes (beware sensitive pictures on the link) 👇

@maikel Oh yeah, I'm aware. Sorry if I made it seem like it was a joke.
And you are right, McD's did downplay it a lot.
Sirana@maikel I admit I'm still not sure what to think about this case because of that "hotter than it should have been" part. I am not much of a coffee person but I've been drinking tea a lot, and when I order it in a restaurant or coffee shop I always expected it to be as hot as if I'd make it at home - which is boiling hot (or almost boiling hot, afaik many electric kettles go to 95°C, not the full 100°C.) Same as in hotels etc. Therefore I'd also not place it on my lap to begin with. I don't even know if there are legal regulations in Germany limiting the temperature for hot drinks or if every store/store chain decides this for themselves. (I suppose there are some by now, and ofc it's more convenient when people can drink their coffee or tea right away.)
I don't want to belittle the pain and severe injuries that woman had, and if it's been standard in the USA for ages to hand out drinks at, idk, 60°C or so, I can see why one would expect it to be safe to handle (and possibly spill with bad luck) right after purchasing. It just felt odd to me when hearing about it the first time because to me expecting a coffee or tea to be anything but boiling hot sounded unusual to begin with...
