Tuna milk shake 19p34
Whilst on holiday in Spain, my son had been drinking los batidos, milk shakes, by the pool. We decided to have a snack and my son wanted a tuna sandwich. Obviously the sun and all those milk shakes have gone to his head because instead of ordering un bocadillo de atún, he ordered un batido de atún and got a very strange look.

As a student of Spanish, I regularly confused the word for tuna, atún, with a false cognate tuna, cactus prickly pear fruit.
