“Tacos, new one on me,” says one contestant, as they are given the assignment for the technical challenge of making tortillas from canned “yellow field corn” and adding steak, spicy refried beans, guacamole and pico de gallo to make some sort of gloppy pile of taco topped with rare meat.
“The food was beyond absurd, because the people who were directing them to make it didn’t know what they were doing,” said Esparza, “The episode goes beyond the awful food. It almost seems like it’s offensive on purpose.” Austin, Texas-based journalist Kate Sánchez tried to put the furor into perspective, noting “Don’t get me wrong it’s definitely racist but also DACA was deemed illegal and my community is being actively harmed by forces not on my TV so glocklymolo and ominous maraca shaking is at least the stuff I can laugh at.” However, she did admit that peeling an avocado like a potato constituted “an act of physical violence against my people.
“Bracing ourselves for a whole lot of cringe,” wrote German-based historian and teacher Daniel Salina Córdova, who also shared a bingo card featuring all the stereotypically Mexican tropes used on the show.episode. Bracing ourselves for a whole lot of cringe, very bad Spanish pronunciation and weird "takes" on Mexican bread and cuisine.“Mexican week on the #GBBO is so cringingly racially and culturally insensitive I have to ask how it was approved,” wrote @kcrusher on Twitter.
Thanks for tweeting along with us during Mexico Week folks – plenty to taco bout! Until next Tuesday, sweet treats!
Cry me a river, don’t watch then…
You mean Mexicans don’t wear 4 foot wide sombreros? Oh…
cynflowerss
This makes me want Mexican for brunch.
Oh for the love of god. Everyone is offended by everything.
Sick of these little crybabies. Everything is racist nowadays, is there anything that’s not racist? That word has actually lost its meaning, what they really mean is it offends them, and they think they speak for everyone.
Has he ever seen Family Guy?
¿Quien carajos es Bill Esparza? ¿otro pocho queriendo llamar la atención?
Oh cool are the Twitter ladies having another cancellation?
Your expectations for the culturally deficient was just a dream. Glad you called them out for what they are, Racists.
What does Mexico really have to do with Great Britain anyways?
Oh Please....there was nothing wrong with The Mexican Week Show....I watched it...Love The Great British Baking Show...stop this nonsense! Nothing Racist about the sombreros and panchos. So over such BS!
Esto viene de un país que lleva una monarquía, sí una monarquía. El chiste se cuenta solo
There is no 'mexican cake' . But we do have some other very tasty desserts.
English are racist even with the Irish.
This is a big todo abt silliness. Like Brits on this show really impact on treatment of Latinxs in US. Puleeze! Focus on Abbott & DeSantis & all the racist candidates. So they massacred Spanish? What else is new? Violated conchas w filling? Sullied 3 leches w chocolate? 🤣 😂 🤣
Let us leave our land of sun and flavor and go to the dinky dirty island off the coast of Europe. When we get there will there be encheeeelaaadas? Soon , Miguelito, soon.
