October 4th Is ’National Taco Day’! Try These Delicious Taco Recipes!
To put it into perspective, that’s 490,000 miles of tacos, which could take you to the moon and back; In weight, it’s about 775-million pounds, equalling the weight of two Empire State Buildings!
Now that is a LOT of tacos!!!
The word taco is the Mexican equivalent of the English word sandwich. The tortilla, which is made of corn or wheat, is wrapped or folded around a filling that is generally made of spiced proteins - beef, pork or fish.
For National Taco Day this October 4, consider the countless variations you can create using traditional meats or with seafood, chicken, beans, cheese and eggs. Grab some garnishes like salsa, cilantro, avocado, tomatoes, onions and lettuce, and you have a dish of great versatility and variety.
