Today, October 4, 2013, is National Taco Day. A taco is a traditional Mexican dish composed of a corn or wheat tortilla folded or rolled around a filling. A taco can be made with a variety of fillings, including beef, pork, chicken, seafood, vegetables and cheese, allowing for great versatility and variety. A taco is generally eaten without utensils and is often accompanied by garnishes such as salsa, avocado or guacamole, cilantro, tomatoes, minced meat, onions and lettuce. Do you have a favorite taco place? Taco Bell here I come! Only 2 miles away. Competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi — famous for his Nathan's hot dogs feats — also holds the record for most tacos eaten. He polished off 106 in 10 minutes in 2012. Yikes! it takes me longer than that to just eat 2 tacos.
Jack-in-the-Box sells 2 tacos for $1.00. Very greasy. However, their breakfast tray is really good. Scramble eggs, potato patty, bacon, & pancakes - about $3.
