Cuco: A Mcdonald's ad campaign called tamales a thing from the past. Eddie: Wow, that sounds kind of rude. Cuco: I'm having tamales tomorrow, so how can they be from the past??!
That was an infortunate ad campaign of McDonald´s in Mexico, to say the least. Plain dumb, considering how much tamales are part of our culture. I don´t think much of it anyway, nor feel compeled to go burn down a McDonald´s restaurant, but in the social networks as usual people tend to be too sensitive and to outrage for nothing.This is a good article about this same issue in Texas Monthly Magazine, where I first heard of it.
