The label probably was in English, I’d guess.
That’d be my guess. That explains it.
It’s a good point you’re making. I remember reading awhile ago where a woman had hired a Mexican lady to clean, cook and so on and she instructed the woman to make a tuna salad for a ladies luncheon. Well, the woman started serving her “tuna” and thought it smelled funny. She went to her “helper” and the lady pulled the “tuna” cans out of the garbage and they were catfood cans with pictures of fish on them. Oops!
Bingo.
Another 'ill'egal success story...
