Cada cultura tiene su propio leyes, pero no hay una cultura en que es un crimen sacar un foto de algo que Ud. Compra a si misma. No dije nada de los galletas, solo que tiene un nombre chistoso - en ingles. Igual, la palabra "barf" en ingles significa "vomito" pero cocine los haburguesas para mi novio igual. Dismay galletas son bastante bien - es el nombre que es chistoso. Si Ud. no entiende el articulo, ni la palabra que use para su producto, no entiendo porque no pide al menos que alguien traduzce el articulo antes que dejar un comentartio absurdo asi! Que no tengas dismay en su vida. Chau. Dismay en ingles significa consternación.
