German 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

This must have been a Bavarian, I would bet!

@coastgnu @skinnylatte So you‘ve lost your bet. Mr. Manz lives next to Stuttgart, following to the News article.
@hobo_ahoi @coastgnu @skinnylatte And there even is (was?) a Thai restaurant in Stuttgart that will serve spicy food! (I was working a bit south of there for a few months in 2013, and finding Thai that was actually spicy became a bit of a hobby. That was the only one I found.)
