What a dummkopf! A German tourist tried to squeeze a Times Square taco spot for $100,000 — claiming his northern European tongue suffered “nonstop pain” from dangerously spicy salsa — but a judge said “nein” to his lawsuit. Faycal Manz, a self-described spice-intolerant traveler from Schemmerhofen, Germany, claimed he suffered “diarrhea, nausea” and “mouth/tongue blisters which cause nonstop pain” after loading up three tacos at the Los Tacos No. 1 in August 2024, according to his lawsuit.
