"Conversely, the origin of the flour tortilla is a little more complicated. According to food historian Melissa Guerra, the Spanish colonizers refused to eat corn as they deemed it unfit for human consumption upon their arrival in Mexico. Once flour tortillas became available, the Spanish catholics tended to prefer the new flour tortillas due to wheat's association with the body of Christ. Then, as Jewish immigrants fled the Iberian Peninsula during the Spanish Inquisition, many settled in Northern Mexico, including what is now Texas. Since corn was not kosher, Guerra believes that the Jews then started making flour tortillas, which continue today to be the tortillas of choice in the region."oh, lorde...europeans at it again

Really?
Who cares those aren't even tacos. These are tacos (lengua):
I see that you tried your best to fry the shit out of the burrito wrap to get around the ruling on if its a burrito or not.
We were apparently not done educating everyone.
But they aren’t fried like people would imagine they don’t turn them into a tostada

Have we covered fish tacos? Sorry I didn’t read the whole thing lately, but I’ve never been inclined to eat a fish burrito so it’s a taco by default. Happens to have a soft shell as well 
Sounds like some why peepole bullshit, but surprisingly they eat them in MexicoHave we covered fish tacos? Sorry I didn’t read the whole thing lately, but I’ve never been inclined to eat a fish burrito so it’s a taco by default. Happens to have a soft shell as well

I think the Germanic dude is all cornfuzzled and shit.
The difference he seems to be missing is the old time corn vs. flour tortilla debate.
All true Mexican tacos use corn tortillas.
The shit you get at TGIF, Qdobo, or Chipotle is usually flour tortillas.
You will never see a hard fried corn tortilla in Mexico unless it is called a tostada.
You get that hard fry with ceviche, not taco meat.
Do I really need to whip out my degree in culinary arts (large dick) and beat you around the head and shoulders with it ?

I love homemade corn tortillas the package stuff is bullshit, but homemade flour are good as shit too. Just depends on my mood.
Even better than a homemade corn tortilla is a pupusa, though not eaten the same. Though I’ve made “tacos” using a pupusa as the tortilla
It’s good as shit I tell you hwut

I am able to get fresh pupusa. They used to serve them in my kids school. The ladies would come in and make them fresh every Thursday and parents were invited. They still have the small restaurant I can goto since my kids moved onto a different school
I grew up around so many Mexicans they sprinkled tequila on me and claimed I was an honorary Mexican.
I don’t see lime slices, pickled onions, or salsa of any kind. Also the meat looks kinda dry, fail.
Barbacoa tacos are life.
You don’t really see that here, I can only assume it’s a western Mexico thing but I could be wrong.
Usually add a slice of aquacate and some green sauce tht light your ass up too just because it’s good as shit.
That looks like taquitos covered in lettuce, ketchup and spooge.
By that logic...Fixed
Something something, from across the planet. Don’t tell us about tacos and we won’t tell you about schnitzel. Lol
It’s only a taquito to the untrained white man. That word is sacrilege and its use where these street tacos come from will earn one the title of extranjero.
He’s a Canadian in California, fuck his thoughts lol. He does make some decent shit though and can be entertaining. More cooking shows need copious amounts of F-bombs
lol, says the German guy from Mormonland trying to school us on what is and isnt Mexican food.Fixed
aye cabron.

And sauerkraut is another word for kimchi.
The salsa I was 'treated' to while in Mexico City, as well as in Cancun and Progresso was thin, watery, and bland. While I will accept "Yeah, but you were in a tourist resort" for the stay in Cancun, this was not the case in Progresso or MC.
Progresso and MC are also tourist city’s. Cruise ships drop off thousands of people in progresso.
Absolutely, however, the place in Progresso where we ate was definitely NOT on a tourist map...
As for MC, I was there on business and being ferried around by the locals I was working with- and eating at their local haunts.
When multiple ships are in port it’s gets found, the place isnt that big.
People eat shit food and like it that live here too
