But then we are venturing into empanadas I suppose.

Are the stale ones you get in a box. After huuuuuuge promises of fantastic gastronomical delight, they are served up empty and sold.

A real taco is a tortilla headed until it is crisp. The best ones are cooked on a piece of sheet metal over a fire in a palapa. I cook my breakfast tacos in a #10 cast iron pan, not quite autentico.

Besides don't us Americans just add el before everything hispanic. And also by speaking english slowly doesn't it automatically become spanish?

BTW I am half Mexican.

There's an actual Taco de Trump recipe (Trump Taco in English).

1.) Buy a cheap deep-fried taco shell, the fake ones in an American store.
2.) Add a tiny pinch of fried brain.
3.) Add a lot of bull tongue.

Now, that's you basic politician taco. But this is a special recipe:

4.) Add a whole pig’s snout.

And yes, that's exactly what you think it means: Idiot Meat!



Seriously, though, I think we have a terrific new nickname for The Donald! Idiot Meat!

His taqueria is in Ciudad Juarez; I'm afraid I would be caught dead - literally - if I went there.

I have family on the US side, and I've been assaulted in their neighborhood by an idiot redneck whose dog barked at me for walking down the sidewalk half-a-block away, so someone obviously tired of the yapper's incessant barking threw something at it and it yelped. So asshole comes out of his house and discovers I'm the only person walking down the sidewalk, now a block away, and he hurls a giant rock at me and an colorful insult. Fortunately, I dodged the rock. Nothing like that has ever happened to me in Ciudad Juarez, but I've had people go out of their way to be helpful to me there. The cops said if I press charges I have to spend the night in jail for cruelty to animals. I told them I wasn't cruel to the guy.

It is hard to overstate how fucked these are, but your JitB taco looks like someone took a Taco Bell hard shell cheap taco, steamed it til the shell went soft, then ran over it with the back wheels of an army truck.

Carl's Jr. sells a perfectly respectable gringo taco. Why the hell Jack in the Box cannot make a gringo taco that's at least as edible as Carl's Jr.'s is one of the leading mysteries of the modern age.

Wrong color, to be sure, but right species.

Of course you already know about the Trump Sandwich....
