FOOD REVIEW OF TACOS
1 A taco is a Mexican dish composed of a wheat or corn tortilla rolled around a filling. The taco predates the arrival of Europeans in Mexico. Throughout the years, Mexican cuisine has been altered to fit American tastes, by adding more meat, cheese and removing spicy ingredients. These changes have transformed the taco into a dish that has more fat and calories than the original. The taco has been a staple of American life. It’s found in school lunches and multistarred restaurants. I went to Flaco’s Tacos with a taco connoisseur. Flaco’s Tacos is a tiny, quaint taco restaurant. Devoted customers appreciate Flaco’s Tacos’ commitment to quality, tasty food at very reasonable prices. An increasing number of new fans like me enjoy the delicious $2.45 authentic 1
