There's legit some hot sauces that are a slow burn. Takes a minute to get to full force...by which time it is FAR too late to spit it out.... guy's still a numpty. Just pointing out I've gotten myself in too deep. Only difference is I said "Yeah, probably should have asked what everything was." Not "Imma sue a motherfucker!"

    I always feel like it's been three or so bites before you realize that you've made a mistake.

    Honestly, I want the taco salsa that makes Germans litigious. The restaurant should sell shirts or something.

    Definitely. By the time I realised that a tactical error was made I've usually smashed the first taco, and am part way through the second.

    I would absolutely smother several tacos in lawsuit sauce, and if that shop isn't capitalising this....idfk if they deserve to run a shop anymore.
