Entertainment center Dave & Buster's came under fire on Tuesday for tweeting out what some saw as a racist and offensive remark pertaining to tacos.

According to The Blaze, the official Dave & Buster's Twitter account sent out a taco joke in honor of 'Taco Tuesday': "I hate tacos" said no Juan ever," with the #TacoTuesday hashtag.

The 'joke' got serious backlash online and the company deleted the tweet 40 minutes later and issued an apology. Some people, though, didn't find the tweet offensive and even told Dave & Buster's to "GET A BACKBONE."
