Simple question. Answer the poll, then discuss.

Edit: I guess it should ask "are" seven tacos too many, but you caught some of my deep south coming out.

Boxed taco shells from the grocery. Making them for the family, in between I was hooking some up for myself. They asked for seconds and as I am hovering over the countertop... seven tacos got smashed. Feeling pretty ashamed atm 😁

Edit: I appreciate the "NO's"

UK here so my knowledge of authentic mexican food is limited considering it's not as popular here as the US, but whenever I make tacos at home, I use the small soft shell kind. I also don't fry the taco as there's enough oil/fat in the meat. I just heat it up on raw flame to char it a bit.

Then I fill it with taco spiced chicken/chorizo, green jalapeno salsa, fresh onion, coriander, avacado and lime juice. I usually stuff my face with 4-5 of these. :messenger_smiling_horns:

Understandable, but this clip looks to be from probably 1986 or so, and we all know that taco technology was still very much in its infancy way back then.
The tacos we have in 2024 are much more structurally sound. Provided that you didn't get them from Chipotle, I mean.
 
Mexican here, 1 hard shell taco is too many. If you guys are hell bent on hard shell then make taquitos. Take your filling out it in the corn tortilla roll it up and fry it. The taco will be nice and crispy.

Hard shell tacos are dogshit and eating 7 just makes you fat cunt 😂

Fried soft shell tacos are fucking lush though.

So... was it the fact that they were hardshell, or the fact that I ate seven that leads to the conclusion that I am a fat cunt?

14 tacos México tacos. No it's not too much. I only eat like this for tacos and taquitos though. I lose myself in the deep scents of meats, vegetables cut to perfection; cilantro, onion, lime. Keep it basic. Red salsa made with several dried, Smokey chillies. My mouth waters 🚿 just thinking of the bite sized pieces of Heaven on Earth.

I owned and ran a Mexican restaurant in New Orleans a decade ago. Your description just sent me back in time. Good job

Edit: you may be asking why I would be eating boxed hardshell tacos, if I knew how to cook.... well "you can take the trash out of a trailer, but you can't take the trailer out of trash". I was raised in a trailer park in the deep south, it's how my momma used to make them.

Eating hard shell tacos makes you a nasty cunt. Eating 7 tacos makes you a fat cunt. It's fine though.. we all lean nasty and fat sometimes.

I think red salsa is my least favorite. What kind of tacos do use red salsa on? Xnipec or tamarind salsa are my favorites.

Well, when Birria, no salsa, unless maybe a single spoonful of a salsa made, in say, the same style as the molcajete?
Canesta? Red Salsa, it's usually pretty thick and is like a coating, lol.
Pollo, tambien. But sometimes I go for a nice Salsa verde. Now at days, I enjoy a good smokey, slow cooked salsa, regardless if Rollo or Verde.
Carne Asada, too.
I like Mexican style hard shell tacos, too. Usually they come packed with stuff, like queso fresco, maybe shredded cabbage(red or green or both), guacamole? Shredded cheese. I've had them in all styles. Pretty much all tacos, though.. I need either a lime or limon.

This is why I'll always have a soft spot for ketchup on steak.
 
Let me educate you guys on the southern white boy way of eating hard shell tacos without making a mess.

1. Get yer Old El Paso taco kit with the taco powder and the hard shells.
2. Cook yer ground beef with the mix, then put a nice thick strip of meat down each shell.
3. Put the shells with meat in the oven, round 350-400, for 5-10 minutes, the grease from the meat will soften the bottom of the shell.
4. Load the taco up with fixin's, the soft bottom allows you to pinch it and get a proper bite.
5. Enjoy
6. Get yourself some fucking proper tacos with that nice griddle wok hei from decades of chorizo, peppers, and oil and stop buying that cheap supermarket crap :P
 
Back in my day we bought the family pack of small corn tortillas because it was cheaper than the small pack of medium size flour tortillas. Government meat simmered with enough seasoning, and cheap toppings to put on em, I could take down ten for dinner easily.

Not too many. With a slippery enough salsa, you could even fit 8, perhaps 9 tacos up your ass, total. I think you can beat your record.

Bro, we're trying to stuff our mouths so that Tacos can come back down the fuckin' Poop Shoot. WTF... I can't even taste the Taco if it comes up my ass. No way.
 
The Mexicans at my local taco shop like nothing more than making a good deep-fried hardshell taco. Every once in a while they'll even go full gringo and use some ground beef and some cheese whiz for us regulars.

Anyway, 3 tacos is the right amount. If you're packing away more than 3, then they probably aren't full-size big boy tacos. Source: I put on 30lbs via sadness eating in like 2 months this year.
 
The most tacos I ever ate at once was four - all fish tacos, home made, soft shell.

I ate three Doritos Locos tacos once when I was with friends all drunk I threw up about two minutes after finishing the last one.

I could probably down seven on an empty stomach if I tried.
 
Depends. An average human body at around 70+kg and average height needs 2300 calories per day. A taco has like what, 200 calories. YOu'll be at half of your daily calorie needs with those 7 tacos, so no, 7 tacos isnt too many. Their too few especially if you work out.
