I'd like real Mexican tacos. I doubt I'd like most real Italian food
too.

I love real Mexican tacos, made with shredded beef or shredded chicken. I
had many in Tijuana and they were great. Plus when we were first married dh
worked at an authentic Mexican restaurant and I got those yummy tacos often.
Pretty much spoiled me for the rest.

I like what passes for a taco at most places. 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'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.

Singles? Might as well eat the stuff they make at Jack In The Box.

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

We do tacos and enchilladas using Mission Carb Balance whole wheat
tortillas. They have a net carb count of 5.

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.

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

So? 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

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.

You don't like chocolate, Chile relleno, tamales, enchiladas,
guacamole, chicken piccata, caprese, bruschetta, spaghetti, or sauce
bolognese???
