Talkin’ About Tacos | Our Mississippi Home
SUMMARY: Tacos are a popular handheld food worldwide, available at fast food chains, Mexican restaurants, and street stalls, or easily made at home. The first decision is whether to use corn or flour tortillas, with corn being authentic and flour more common in the U.S. Tacos can be made with a wide variety of ingredients, including leftovers, seafood, or meats. The breakfast taco, originating in Monterrey, Mexico, is a favorite, with ingredients like eggs and bacon. Other options include cheeseburger tacos or salads like pimento cheese. Tacos are versatile and can be paired with chips, soup, or condiments like hot sauce.
