Do you live in a place with terrible Mexican food?
I live in a place with basically NO Mexican food.
ETA: I'm pretty much not familiar with Mexican cuisine.
Sounds a lot like Canada, where most people’s exposure to “Mexican food” is Taco Bell. Welcome to the club.
My distaste for Tacos comes down to the fact I don’t like crunchy foods that shatter, and especially so when they run the risk of being messy. I mean, I can handle a gooey messy burger just fine, but that’s because it doesn’t shatter when I bite into it. Tacos hit both those pain points. Give me Arroz con Pollo any day, I absolutely love it. And yes, the only place I can get this is from Rancho Chico south of the border in Washington state.
Which means it’s a no-go until America overthrows the current authoritarian ChristoFascist administration. Because they won’t allow themselves to be legitimately voted out of power. Soooo… possibly a decade or more until I can eat there again, assuming America doesn’t invade Canada in the meantime.
The funny thing is, hard shells aren't authentic. That's an American thing. Soft tortillas are authentic, maybe cooked just a little on the stove.
I agree, hard tacos are a mess. I don't understand why they exist. The texture is fine, but it'd be better as something in the taco, not as the container.
You can make tacos at home too by the way. They're a very simple food, and you just use whatever protein you want and whatever additions you feel like. It's like a sandwich. You can't go wrong. You just use what you have/want.
If you can call that living.
The only food you really need is Indian food.
I think saying this in America’s west / south west is a felony.
Maybe, but if even if you only take food from north America into consideration mexican food is still second place to Cajun/creole food..
Louisiana might agree with you, but the rest of North America would probably fight you on that. Nachos are a staple of every single sporting stadium here.
Maybe, I'm neither north American or a sports fan. But I'd rather have fried alligator or blackened catfish as far as fast food goes. And you genuinely can't beat a bowl of seafood ocra gumbo over heavily buttered cornbread. Nom nom nom.
Which country? You need some good Mexican food ASAP
