    Everyone talking about how they didn’t know or should’ve known or whatever. Yeah ok.

    Others saying it’s good she tried correcting her review, that’s good.

    But why is no one commenting on how you shouldn’t review things you don’t understand?

    Like, maybe all tamales are supposed to be eaten with the husk, and that’s how people do it and like it, but you just don’t like it. That’s fine, you just don’t like it!

    A review is meant to tell other people who enjoy a thing, how good that thing is at whatever place you’re getting it from.

    Imagine going to a 5 star restaurant, ordering chicken Cordon bleu, and then giving them a one star review because you don’t like chicken. Or salmon but you don’t like fish.

    Just seems weird to me. I would never review a place badly because I didn’t like what I’d order, when it was literally the first time I’ve had it, evidenced in the case by the fact she didn’t know how to eat it properly.

    Now if I’ve had something a few times, know I usually like it, but this time it was bad? Go wild 🤷‍♂️

      I could see some white person getting tamales that came unwrapped being confused if served tamales in the husk. Altho I will admit that I feel this is a REALLY difficult mistake to make.
