    1.) Crunchy. Perfectly crunchy, so you bite through it rather than shattering it along the midline and dumping it down your shirt. I have only ever encountered a perfect crunchy taco shell once, out of the back of a roach coach in Houston when I was too drunk to read, but not too drunk to demand tacos from the designated driver.

    Tell them you want it "flash fried". That makes it crispier than a soft taco, but not completely crunchy and brittle like a cheap premade taco shell.


    I love lengua, cabeza, tripas, barbacoa and al pastor tacos, also love a good shredded beef taco. Nothing wrong with a good fish taco either. Even love Taco Bell/Del Taco ground beef cheapies. The ones I really get the occasional cravings for are the Jack In The Box 2 for 99 cents tacos! They're about as un-authentic as a taco can be, but man do they hit the spot once in a while!

    There's one restaurant in our town that serves pork belly tacos. They're an Asian fusion kinda thing with sweet red chili sauce, very different from traditional Mexican fare but pretty tasty.

    My neck is now sore from looking at your taco. Why in the world would you post it sideways? Cute kid though. Messy face, but what do you expect when eating tacos?

    Because by the time I realized it was sideways, I was too lazy to go back and fix it. Lol
    And yeah, it doesn't matter how adorable you are, once chips and queso hit the table the beauty pageant's over.
