You're missing the point. I don't think anyone is saying it's good. Pretty much the opposite. The point is that DMart usually comes after people when they say something here is crap because, "how dare they assume it was marketed at them in the first place!" and this is just another symptom of his perceived westerner attitude of superiority in Korea. Then, Dmart went and did the exact same thing. It's the hypocrisy people are commenting on, rather than defending the goods from PB. We all know it's fast food crap.
Wait. So what you're saying is that you agree with waygook.org user Mr.DeMartino that PB isn't very good. And, even though you literally agree with him, you're still trying to antagonize him? You guys are weird.
Personal attacks are petty and inane in my opinion. We're just pixels on a screen. Let's focus on sharing information with more universal appeal. Stuff that's pertinent to our lives in Korea. Knowledge that could help us become better people.
) Any of you have your opinion discounted because you're X-ethnicity-American? While also bemoaning Korean racism and the fact that no matter what, you're never "truly Korean"? And then also having called you a racist because of your political views? If you want to go after a hypocrite, why don't you go after that guy

If you can't see the difference in that sort of criticism, then I don't know what to say.3) Where did I ever demand that PB change their menu to suit me? Where did I ever insult people who consumed it? Where did I ever call it objectively awful? Where did I say ALL of it was garbage? Did I ever express anger at people for consuming PB? Is there any linguistic or cultural requirement to buy a snack from PB?
"All Korean bakeries suck and Koreans suck for eating at them"
You boys really did a number on Tino here. You have to admit Martin you walked right into that one. Gotta stay sharp, perhaps you are slipping in your old age. I've just come back from 2 months in Monte Carlo on Sonny's yacht. What a party animal. We took down a casino one night but I'll save that for another day.
If I have to step off the pavement and into the road to avoid a collision with an oncoming person one more time...
It's one of those things that I genuinely don't remember happening in England. I might be misremembering but I can't recall it happening every single day like it does here. It makes me irrationally angry.We're all the same. We've all got front facing eyes and spatial awareness and all that, so I can't figure this one out. When I see another person approaching, I've already prepared by moving over to the extreme edge of the pavement and shifted my body slightly sideways if necessary. So why do I still have to step into the road to avoid a shoulder barge? I can't get it straight in my mind!
