Best to avoid saying "I'm all ears" then when listening intently to a Spaniard imparting information.
Jews should take care when ordering Kosher Chicken as well if misunderstandings are to be avoided.

And "preservativo" doesn't mean "preservative", either.

This can lead to embarrassment when asking if food contains any "preservativos".

Spanish cuisine can be a bit awkward sometimes, but I don't think they started putting rubber balloons in their tapas yet!
