Mexican food never gives me the shits, is this just a meme promoted by people who never get enough fiber?

[–] dumbcrumb@lemmy.world 34 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yea Im pretty sure all the people who talk about mexican food and tacobell giving them shits just have shit diets. Ive never had these problems either.

Even Taco Bell doesn't usually give me the shits, unless I drink soda from one of those nasty ass dispensers fast food joints regularly neglect cleaning.

There were some social media posts about taco bell management telling workers to still serve the food that was marked as expired, so the shits might be compromised food ingredients.

This is a real risk at pretty much any fast food place and plenty of regular restaurants. Gotta keep an eye on how the management runs stuff (or just make your own food).

Since COVID we have made 99% of our food from scratch (i.e. making my own thai curry paste from scratch, grinding my own spices, etc)...I'm now almost always very disappointed by meals outside the home...especially with the price hikes.

Yeah, $15 for a shitty burger and cold fries? No thanks.

As a long-time IBS sufferer, I'm always happy to see memes about getting the shits, because it makes me feel less alone.

Since everything seems to fuck my stomach up, I eat mexican food all the time. If I'm going to spend my evening on the toilet, I may as well enjoy myself!

From personal experience, the green and red sauce causes me problems. Even Chipotle's red and green sauce affects me, so it's not about the cheap or expired stuff. Just my body rejecting it. Anything spicy does me in, but not all spices or hot spice.

At least it's not all spicy things
