เศษเนื้อ for hamburgers?

I thought this was an English language forum...

Yes it is, but for the sake of the message this topic is trying to convey, it has been approved.

So much for that approval... Seagull squad abduction complete. ;)

Bailing out..

  • Once it is cooked, who cares? It was probably as good as what usually passes as hamburger here anyway.

  • "hamburger meat (3/4 of a kilo) for 45 baht". Price might have been a bit of a giveaway to most. Thank you for sharing your Thai language skills.

  • "I wonder how many unsuspecting foreigners who don't read Thai (which is probably most of them) picked that up and used it to make hamburgers". Instead of gloating that most foreigners can't read Th

I got caught, thought "good deal" took home, cooked it, full of bone pieces, complained to Makro, they refunded money, explained "food for dog"

Over the years I've seen many posts where the poster wishes to brag about his Thai language ability. This is the only one I've seen where he got away with Thai script. I'm going to write him in for the Poster of the Year award.

First, I was not "bragging" about my Thai ability; that would be absurd.

Second, I disagree with this being moved to the language forum simply because it has Thai language in it. The original post WAS NOT about learning, speaking, spelling or pronouncing Thai, or derivations therein. It was about packaging in a supermarket known to cater to foreigners that was labeled without English (and being a product that could have been misconstrued).

Having said that, I don't understand being vilified for taking the time and effort to go to school (university) and learn to read and write the language of the country where I have made my home. Sure, I have pride in the fact that I actually knuckled down and did the work to get to the point where I am, but the level I have "mastered" is not that high, certainly not good enough to even consider "bragging" about it.

This thread should be moved back to the Chiang Mai forum since it is not related to the following: "Thai language forum. Learn to speak, and read Thai in a supportive environment." It's about labeling in a Chiang Mai supermarket.

Oh and thanks for the Poster of the Year award nomination.... crazy.gif.pagespeed.ce.dzDUUqYcHZL4v7J7m

^ You and Gonzo are using logic.

Logic doesn't apply here.
