grammaticality - Can "me, too" be used to reply to a negative statement?
A: I can't understand why my parents keep me from buying fast food.
B: Me, too. It's delicious.
Does B's answer sound natural?
In Korea, we usually teach that we should use 'me, neither' in a negative sentence, 'me, too' in a positive sentence. But I am not sure if this is always true.
I think that 'me, too' is a valid response in this particular case, but one of my students said that 'me, too' is grammatically incorrect, so it is unnatural.
Who is right?
