No,
They are more similar to tortillas, but they are not tortillas either.

In North Dakota they are.

Moto, ask yourself this, you ask the woman you're dating to bring you a beer and a sandwich, and she brought you a taco and a beer... Would you be satisfied?




What ever they're considered in the country of origin doesn't matter once they are duplicated in another country, they are what they are there.

Tortillas is their bread of choice~~

The 'Sandwich' is named after the Earl of Sandwich
who, while playing cards, ordered the servants
to put the meat between 2 pieces of bread so
that he might continue playing cards
while eating.

So, had he been in Mexico at the time he probably
would have gotten the same order..and namesake.

Though it might have been called a tacowich.

Si?

Just read an article, basically a sandwich shop owner in a mall had a clause that no other "sandwich" shops could open in the same mall. A guy wanted to open a "taco" shop. Judge ruled a "taco" wasn't a sandwich.

In another state the judge ruled that tacos were indeed a version of a "sandwich".

If it was a really good taco, yes.

Are tacos.... an anti-constipation food?

I say yes, and more, if bought at the wrong place!

These aren't tacos anymore.
These could be quesadillas, burritos and others

Must be a regional thing. Here a "taco" is a tortilla, soft flour or corn, or hard fried corn, folded in half and filled with stuff.

A burrito is a soft flour tortilla filled with stuff rolled and folded at the ends.

A chimichanga is a deep fried burrito.

A quesadilla is a cheese filled, with other stuff, tortilla panini fried.

And tacquitos??? they're little tacos usually rolled up with open ends.

I had to read that to many times. I thought you wrote “I thought you were a sandwich” and I said out loud no he’s a snack. :sweat_smile:

No a taco is not a sandwich and yes a taco is made from a tortilla soft or hard.
