    I can spend an extra hour cooking the good shit for an extra 15% that my family probably won’t even notice or I can have this done in 15 minutes.

    You’re be shocked to find out that plenty Mexicans eat this because, shocking I know, it saves time and not every meal gets the weekend meals treatment.

      Ok fair enough, I take back my comment and I’m sorry for it. I was talking more from a “getting each ingredient individually is cheaper and then you can make more later” perspective, rather than a “you’d get way more for your one meal” perspective. But I understand what you mean and I see I was wrong to tar everyone with the same brush. Which isn’t something you should do ever

      As someone who grew up in a family that would just buy something like this because they don’t consider they can just get everything cheaper otherwise, and pronounces so many Spanish words cringely wrong and refuses to change when corrected, I guess all I could see was a load of people just like them lol

        Have an upvote on your original comment so you’re not negative; nice to see an honest bit of (minor) contrition in our public discourse.

          Haha thanks I appreciate your kind words. I’m not one for dying on hills, I’ll save myself the later shame and anxiety setting in I get from being belligerent
