Farmers Market Etiquette?

I love the free samples at the neighborhood farmer's markets. Recently, I visited a booth I'd not been to before where a woman was selling her rugelach, which I love. Usually. The nice lady offered me a sample which I gratefully accepted.

It was horrible.

The woman, the baker herself I'm assuming, asked me how it was. What should I have said? Does it make sense to lie and be polite, never informing the woman that she's making a dreadful tasting product and that she should change the recipe immediately? Who does that serve?

So I lied. And I'll probably do it again.
