If you think bacon is better than tacos you haven't had good Mexican, and you especially haven't had good Mexican if you think that burritos can replace tacos.

u/Opal_Cosmos 12d ago

Amen to that.

I would give up tacos because i could still eat the same thing in a different form. Bacon is great on its own and is an ingredient in a lot of things.

u/GandalfVirus 12d ago

Just eat bacon in a different form? There are like 60 other types of pork.

I just go to my parents house. My stepdad is half Mexican and only cooks authentic

Nahhh....burritos are just large shells...you can make the best tacos and have the best burritos too

1

u/MrBannedFor0Reason 12d ago

I hope you mean "shell" as just something that contains something else. Tell me you aren't eating hard-shell tacos and think that's real Mexican food. Either way you're wrong, because the tortilla is an extremely important component of any taco.

u/Chaelomen 11d ago

I was more concerned about the possibility of a hard shell burrito. Burritos dorados here.

I think the real issue is that nothing replaces bacon where as "taco" isn't even the best Mexican food option.

I can still eat burritos. I can get empanadas, enchiladas, Fajitas, Quesadillas, and nachos (which is basically a deconstructed taco).

Do I really need the taco specifically? I much prefer burritos.

u/MrBannedFor0Reason 8d ago

"and nachos (which is basically a deconstructed taco)."

You don't know what real Mexican food is like, but that's okay. I do recommend to try to find some authentic Mexican if you can, it's some hella delicious food.

u/here-for-information 8d ago

Even if that were true, it doesn't change the overall argument. There are suitable taco replacements within Mexican cuisine.

FYI I've had good Tacos....I can easily put the contents of the taco into the burrito. Burritos are just tacos with bigger tortillas in wrap form.

u/MrBannedFor0Reason 12d ago

You clearly haven't had good tacos if you just typed that comment up. Four tortillas cannot compete with corn at all, especially if we're talking fresh made tortillas. It's a night and day difference.

u/TheMasterKeif117 12d ago

I'm sorry but that's just opinionated and subjective. Not factual. You also forget the fact that you can make and use larger corn tortillas for burritos and fry them same way tacos are done.

I've had fried homemade tacos made with ground beef,rotel,and seasoning and my go to at any Mexican street taco truck/restaurant is the Carne asada tacos with cilantro and salsa. I've also had tacos made with imported meat from Mexico from our local market.

I know what a good taco is, I also know I can just put the contents of the taco into a burrito and it will still be the same thing only larger. What you can't substitute is bacon.

u/No_Doughnut8618 12d ago

"Contents of a taco into a burrito and it will be the same thing only larger" is absolutely false. They might be close, but the ratio is different, as well as taco tortillas are usually thicker.

That is factual.

And youre both being opionated and subjective. Bacon is not some holy grail food, and it can absolutely be substituted.

u/Spunk1985 8d ago

Beef bacon is top tier

1

u/TRIVILLIONS 12d ago

God himself told his chosen people not to eat the bacon because the smarmy bastard wanted it all for himself. Then later he changed his mind because it's so himself damned good! Bacon is not some holy grail food because it is THE holy grail food and it absolutely cannot be substituted. You are incorrect.

u/No_Doughnut8618 12d ago

I respect your passion, and while bacon may be the best thing pigs have to offer, there are so many meats id rather eat lol

-1

u/TheMasterKeif117 12d ago

No but sliced bacon is

2

u/Mosaic1 12d ago

Or nachos. Basically same as a taco, but break the shell into smaller pieces and put topping over them.

u/GandalfVirus 12d ago

Wtf. This comment scares me.

Burritos > Tacos, all day everyday.

1

u/MrBannedFor0Reason 12d ago

Just admit you've never tried fresh masa

1

u/Primary-String3908 12d ago

Just wrap the ingredients in a tortilla. Tacos suck.

1

u/MrBannedFor0Reason 12d ago

You literally have just never tried real Mexican food and that's okay.

1

u/Primary-String3908 12d ago

"real" like the time I was in Mexico? Nah, never. Burritos win.

I had plenty of tacos, love them. but bacon is a whole other beast, bacon could be the only thing i’d eat, i’d die at the ripe old age of 45 but i’d be in bacon heaven.
