Customer Gets Hot Over Hot Taco Sauce
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) - Apparently this customer wasn't hot about his tacos.
Police were looking for a man who they say vandalized a bathroom at a Mexican restaurant after accusing employees of putting hot sauce on his tacos.
Police say two people in a red 1994 GMC Jimmy drove through the drive-thru at Taco John's about 8 p.m. Friday. After they received their food, they pulled over in the parking lot and one of the men walked into the restaurant and began yelling at employees for putting hot sauce on his tacos, police said.
An employee told the man that the restaurant doesn't put hot sauce on any of its tacos, and the man walked into the men's bathroom and cracked the tank on the toilet, police said.
I would offer the opinion that anyone that thought Taco John's has hot taco sauce is an idiot to begin with.
In other news, Council Bluffs began sponsoring remedial food identification courses for the terminally dumb.
This is a taco.
It is kinda sorta Mexican.
That means it might be spicy.
This is sushi.
That means it's made of raw fish.
This is meatloaf.
That means we have no idea what's actually in it.
We could use those classes here. Had to explain to a checkout clerk last weekend that the long green fresh thingies we were buying were (are) asparagus.
The Bismarck (or mebbe it were somewhere in Montana) Motel 6 had a full-page coupon-ad for "Taco John's: That's A Whole Lot Of Mexican!"
hee hee hee
Dys is quite right. None of the fast food chains even have hot sauce. Haven't seen any hot salsa in the supermarkets either. Now, Mexican owned restaurants, on the other hand. . . .

Try buying tomatillos. Every checker in the world asks, "Brussel sprouts?"
I must be the only white guy in the world to buy tomatillos.
Our market sells stuff like fennel and those big honkin' yam-like items. Perhaps I'll scare a checker one day and buy them, plus tomatillos and plantains. This will be if I have an hour to kill.

Well, I used to, but I'm not a gringo courting in California anymore...
