Other than tacos I make I'll leave the Hispanic food for others, I doubt
I'd like real Mexican tacos. I doubt I'd like most real Italian food too. |

If by real tacos you mean street tacos, they are the best! Of course there is a great deal of variation as to what you can put in there. The best I've ever had was some beef that was like pot roast. Or seasoned ground beef with pico de gallo. I do not like all Italian food by a long shot. Fish and seafood is very common in Italy. And I have an extreme dislike for the Easter pie that my inlaws make. It is not a dessert, but a combination of eggs, meats and cheeses. They don't use a crust on theirs but most families do. It's just far too rich for me. I could eat pasta fagioli ever day though. That's a bean and pasta soup. I am a very picky eater but I think it just about every ethicity of food I can find one dish that I like. I don't like most Indian food because of the seasoning but I do like naan. I don't like the seasoning of most Japanese food but I do like the plain rice. |

The crisp shell with the meat, shredded lettuce and tomato. Cheese would normally be in there too but I can't eat it. However... I do not consider that to be a real taco at all. I do like the real tacos with the double tortillas. There is a little place that used to be a Taco Bell that sells authentic Mexican food. They also own a bunch of taco trucks all over the place. The tacos are very small but they are very good. They do not normally put cheese on them. Just the meat of your choice (and there are many choices) and some pico de gallo. They also have a little station with all sorts of pickled vegetables and condiments for you to add if you wish. |

I have little baking dishes that will make a soft tortilla into a hard shell. I use the Mission Carb Balance tortillas and make these shells for taco salads. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does. |

Yes, I use the Mission Carb Balance too. I really like them for taco salads too. Cheri |

I'll make tacos next Tue, cook the ground chuck, pour the grease off,
add the taco seasoning with a little water, heat the shells, put 1/2 slice of singles cheese per taco with medium salsa on top, no lettuce. I usually get Taco Bell jar medium salsa but Chi Chi medium jar salsa is ok too. |

We eat the crisp shells once in a while when they are cheap. But mostly we prefer the soft ones. |

Everyone knew someone that had a vine, the vine would grow along a fence for a long way with the chokoes hanging over neighbour's fences. Mostly we had them boiled in salted water. They take on the flavour of what they are cooked with. Many made faux apple pies/crumble etc with. The young, smooth-skinned ones are the ones to go for. |

I have a tortilla with a taco salad about twice a year, usually just the taco salad with no tortilla, and don't eat the tortillas that often either. I'm not afraid of my food at all in reasonable quantities. YMMV Cheri |
