Why isn't this a Federal holiday??? I guess I have to change my dinner plans later.
-
Worth a reminder that if you don't appreciate a simple street taco with pork/chicken/beef and diced onion and cilantro, without a bunch of shredded cheese or sour cream, you don't actually love tacos.
-
Just finished the delicious pork quesadillas my wife made -- pork loin, sauteed peppers and onions, my homemade guac, a nice salsa.
Gonna have to be close enough to tacos.

Trayf, aina?

I'm gonna.side with JWags here. He's 100% correct on the street taco (carnitas, carne asada) with onion and cilantro . It also must be on a soft corm tortilla with a splash of a hot salsa being optional.
While your quesadillas sound delicious, they are not tacos and may be illegal or at least a disqualification on National Taco Day.

It was served on a platef, not a trayf.

But is a taco a sandwich?

Supper tonight was blue tortilla chips, salsa, guacamole, pinto beans, cheddar cheese and taco flavored ground beef.

Only if you're a heretic

I had three carnitas tacos, some mex street 🌽, and a Negra Modelo.

A lot of the tacos are here illegally. Get a certificate when you buy one.

I say it's a sandwich and only those with an unflinchingly orthodox definition of "sandwich" can say otherwise.
As the internet has so sagely determined, a hotdog is a sandwich. Therefore, a taco can be a sandwich as well.
Time and the evolution of language stop for no man. Get with the times.

I'm in an ingredient rebel and structure orthodox. I don't care what you put in it, but it has to be something between two separate pieces of the same thing. A hot dog is only a sandwich if you separate the bun.

I say it is not a sandwich due to the existence of Tortas, so its not as if its just the cultural version of a sandwich for a region. The same way I don't consider a gyro to be a sandwich.

Exactly. This is absurd. If a taco is a sandwich then why is there a distinction between breakfast tacos and breakfast sandwiches? You can't just make up definitions. And a wrap whether it's a pita or a tortilla isn't a sandwich either. I mean seriously if you fold NY pizza and eat it that way is it a sandwich?? Please.

What if the bun accidentally comes apart? Did your meal transform right in front of your eyes?

Rico identifies as a taco.

A Philly cheesesteak isn’t a sandwich to you?? Unless you break apart the bread into two pieces??

Corn or flour?

Are the ingredients not between the sides of the tortilla? Are you eating your tacos lying open and flat with a knife and fork? Who's the heretic now?

Mexican grilled cheese, absolutely.

This is all covered by the cube rule
https://cuberule.com/
(https://cuberule.com/assets/15_cube_rule.jpg)
Subway, cheesesteaks, and hot dogs are all forms of tacos unless you break the bun apart.
A quesadilla, if it's closed like a mexican quesadilla, is a calzone (much like poptarts). If it's open like american quesadillas then its a taco
-

Yup. World is doomed, now people need rules for their food. Eat & enjoy...until we can't.
-
Excuse me but if a taco or quesadilla is a sandwich why do tortas exist? If a taco is a sandwich is moo shu pork as well?
-
And what about Subway?
My Sandwich Artist has an opinion on that one.

Those are subs. A close cousin of the sandwich

If you make your taco into a torta it's a sandwich. But one tortilla equals a taco, a second cousin of the sandwich

Monzon Brewery Puerto Vallarta

Celebrated with a Fried Willapa Bay oyster, Salsa Veracruzana made with tomato, olives, capers, orange and guajillo on a hand-pressed squid ink tortilla taco
And grilled Amish chicken thighs en adobo, fresh fennel slaw, radish, pina-habanero salsa. Served with three hand rolled chicken fat flour tortillas
With a mezcal Paloma
Also a hot dog, taco, Italian beef, Philly cheese steak are all not sandwiches till the bread breaks.

what about a street taco that uses two tortillas thusly:
tortilla-tortilla-fillings
?

If I'm reading correctly, that's an open faced sandwich, sandwiches most awkward cousin
-
In honor of this thread, I did not cut all of the way through the hamburger bun I had for dinner so the burger would not be a sandwich.
The silly things we do argue about.
-
I like my tacos pink, eh?

We should ask Earl for a ruling.
-
And what about Subway?
I prefer a hoagie from Jersey Mikes.

If that’s the case then a traditional taco is just a folded up open faced sandwich.
Boom

Ty Galway! How have you been?
I’ve been. Good stuff (owners are Seattleites so more IPAs and hazies) but beer is pricey for PV. Los Muertos in PV is solid beer and has a great happy hour. When I was there in 2021 happy hour pints were under $2.

Didn't care for los muertos imo was a great environment and enjoyed one beer but the rest of them were very "meh"

Good, doing well just lost pride in my alma mater from coming here so wanted to take a step away after a decade plus newly married and me not on here as much was in her prenup. Hope all is well and that the animals are flourishing.

I'm not sure I've had Sol.
I also forgot Victoria.
I'm a bigger fan of some of the Caribbean island beers. Piton, Carib, Presidente, and Banks.

Glad you're doing well. Hang in there Galway.

Just a heads up that Saturday is National Pierogi Day. If you don't have a potato ricer you better get one as well as break out your rolling pins. :)

Pierogies are of course part of the dumpling family and score quite well on the UDS (Ultimate Dumpling Scale). But there is a caveat because people mess with the classic potato/onion filling. It's also worth noting that dumpling ratings and competition is cut-throat and there are only a handful a people with expertise in dumplingology.
