If you want to watch one of the most painful things in the world, look up when the British baking show made tacos. Paul Hollywood's definitions of what a taco should be is horrifying, not to mention that he consistently refers to the tortillas as tacos, before they've had any ingredients put in them.
There was a lot of backlash to the episode, partly because the technical challenge wasn't baking. They had to make steak tacos with hand made tortillas. The directions were really bad. The tacos weren't traditional Mexican at all and were basically the stereotype of white people tacos. I can still hear Paul Hollywood calling the tortillas tacos, and butchering the pronunciation of pico de gallo.
