I am going to show my total Britishness now.  What is a taco - is it anything to do with Taco Bell?  Probably all other Brits know but my taste buds stretch as far as the local fish and chip shop  Grin

Oh and I did know about poor old Cedric - that is why I only support him a little bit  Wink

InMexico tacos are a soft pliable tortilla kind of thing (made from maize or wheat), in the US it seems to be a deep-fried crispy tortilla shell, unless we are talking about breakfast time and then it's a whole different story.

Oh yes and then they fill it with stuff. I dunno whether it's any good, but I have been warned off taco bells by American flatmates  Undecided

The only reason I know about Taco Bell is because of the Demolition Man, I love that film  ROFL!  So they seem to be a bit like a versatile pancake that can be soggy or crunchy?

I love Taco Bell, so I guess it is all up to your taste buds. I met my husband working at a Mexican Restaurant, and I prefered the fast food Taco Bell Tacos over the one from the restaurant.

And yes, you can order soft tacos or hard shell tacos.  It is a Mexican/Spanish dish.

I don't mean to be difficult here but I have never come across this in Spain (remember in Spain a tortilla is a type of Omelette, there's definitely something 'lost in translation' there!). And if it originated from Maize then it definitely didn't originate in Spain  Undecided

If it gets your vote Sara, I'll definitely give it a try  Smiley

 ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL!

I am totally cracking up!! I guess one (myself) thinks everyone knows about our common international foods, especially something like tacos.  But when I read the food threads, I don't have a clue what some of you are talking about!!!  ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL!

Me too!!  I am at work, so if I view it at home I should be fine, but I want to know too!!

Oh, and Roz, you are right.  It is not Spanish.  Definitely Mexican though...

Taco Bell makes a very Americanized version of Mexican food.  It's okay.  I had the more authentic stuff when I lived in LA and nothing can compare to that for me. Smiley

Kbmum is so right on the tacos!  Taco Bell is just a generic hamburger meat taco, although not too bad for fast food (but very fattening).  When we lived in San Diego I got to have some REAL tacos, burritos, etc.  There's a HUGE difference!  I miss it.  :'(  But here in Florida we can get some good Cuban food.  Pork, fried plantains, black beans and rice!  Yum!!  Too bad Cedrick will never get to try it.  Wink

I love Cuban food.  I tried it when my husband and I honeymooned in the Floriday Keys, but it's very hard to find up north.

It sounds like some of your computer settings are stopping them from working properly.

Well, it looks like the event must happen, so welcome everyone to the first international Taco Symposium. Sorry, I forgot the Chips 'n' Dip, so you are on your own on that front. To start with today, let us introduce: THE TACO!
An average example of a scrumptious soft and hard shell taco. Yummy yummy.

These are two more examples of your basic nummy taco, a wonderful, easily produced food for the masses. Do marvel.

This is a taco salad, the orgins of which are shrouded in mystery, but are rumoured to be the work of a man from Upper Boise who just couldn't keep his crispy taco shell in one piece.

These are some of the things that can go into a taco. Other lesser known, and not always recommended ingrediants include small woodland animals, your Harry Potter prop cards, and neighborhood children.

This is art inspired by the taco. Strangely enough, it is also yummy.

Here are two lovely little critters who are not tacos, but who are, indeed, named Taco.

This is another fuzzy fun one named Taco, who enjoys his daytime telly, usually coronation street, and his brandy.

This is the directions to a place that, you guessed it, serves tacos.

This is a clown named Taco, and unlike real tacos, is quite frightening.

This is a Ferret named Taco, and upon last check, is no relation of the Draco Malfoy Ferret.

This man...has nothing to do with tacos.

These are not tacos...

and neither are these.

This bloke doesn't know what a taco is.

She has nothing to do with Tacos, but is rather a blatant attempt to insert a lovely lady into my symposium on tacos.

And finally, this is what will happen if you eat to many good tacos, or any quanitity of bad tacos. Thank you for your time, attention, and interest in the taco symposium. We now turn the stage over M. Python for his symposium on sympoiums.
