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.

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.

But is a taco a sandwich?

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?
