Comment on How Tortillas Lost Their Magic

  That’s not how it works tho. If you make a claim, the responsibilities of evidence are on the person who made the claim.

  Can’t back it up? Then it’s bullshit.

  This is day 1 scientific method stuff, bud, it’s not about holding hands, it’s about whether you actually have any repeatable data to backup your claims. If you don’t, you probably shouldn’t be saying it as fact.

    It is when your position is this

    I’m going to be honest here, I’m highly skeptical of the quality of cornmeal leading to lower quality tortillas.

    This is ignorant about how food works ( not food science, food in general), on top of the rest of your comment being condescending.

    You aren’t going to get a response from that dude, so it is working like that. Be responsible for yourself.

      Well no to be more accurate, the op was full of shit and couldn’t back it up when asked, thus what they said can be ignored. Like if we were in my lab, I would make you do laps for even bringing it up.

        It’s a good thing you aren’t in charge, with brain-dead takes like “I’m going to need primary sources on food quality in correlates positively to food quality out”
