Tacos in a holder & rice and beans in a burrito = bullshit Mexican food

We have really good tacos here that cost around 2 bucks each.

Not in my experience, at least with burritos I've had in Mexico. Granted I've only had them in one city and from 2 different places. The burritos I've had in Mexico were in Tijuana and they were very different to the burritos people would typically picture. They're much thinner and the only filling was meat. Thought it was a bit strange and between tacos in Mexico or the types of burritos I've had in Mexico, tacos win hands down. In Southern California and Texas, I think rice and beans are just filler to make burritos look fatter, cos gringos love big fat burritos. It's why the California burrito took off, adding chips to the burrito was a low cost way of stuffing a carne asada burrito to look much fatter without actually adding more meat. You go too far north in California and the burritos start looking like absolute monsters but that's because it's 80% rice and beans and barely any of what it's actually supposed to be - these burritos are absolute bullshit. In San Diego if you see a burrito with rice & beans, it's a bullshit burrito and you shouldn't get it. But Mexico's a big country and culinary styles change from region to region in any country, and Mexico is no exception, so I'm sure some Mexicans do put rice and beans in burritos. But most people worldwide when they're thinking of burritos, they're thinking of Tex-Mex style burritos. And a lot of those do have rice and beans in them. But too much of that and I think it's absolute bullshit just to inflate a burrito and use up less of the more expensive ingredients.

She looks like someone deprived of both tacos and burritos.

Taco ahead by 1. 4-3 and in the lead. Currently @Mel81x, @Tommy and @Coma can shove their burritos up their arses.

I was in the thick of Puerto Vallarta

I can tell you really hate burritos from this picture

@Stanthere is a special place in @Dr. Gonzo hell for you mate

Think again

Man you can't be talking shit about Mexican food when you had fajitas, the food that Mexicans make fun of gringos for liking

I didn't eat burritos in Puerto Vallarta tbh. Tacos, fajitas, and quesadillas though, which were all so good. Like I said, I've only had burritos twice in Tijuana - and I probably won't have them again.

He is more gate keeping of Mexican food than Mexicans lmao

As much as it's not technically what the OP is asking I guess, after eating any Italian food in Italy and then eating it anywhere else is worlds apart. I know that eating any dish in its home country is different but seriously, you're not eating pizza in England.

Think the tex-mex style of tacos and burritos is really what most people associate with their Mexican counterparts. In college we had folks who wouldn't put rice in a burrito so it was weird when I got one that did but you're right they do put it in there they just don't overload it with rice because that would totally neutralize the flavor of the meat. Their tacos also change from regions and so does their choice in chilli that goes into their tacos as well. got a long lecture from someone about how they use different types for meats because of the way its supposed to affect the flavor and I think for the most part ordering one in most popular places comes with the understanding that its a heat element not a flavor element, the latter being the way you'd get it from most latin people eating or making the dish.

Fairly even scores all round barring two - @Rajabhat Rovers extends his lead to a strong 15 points after scoring 19 in this game-week, and 3 perfect scores along the way. Next best was @CaaC (John), with 16 points, and that meant he overtook @Lucas in the only movement in the table.

Metal holder yeah but also just the weird ass flavours and fusions and probably most importantly prices.

Home dominance for the latest two. A 6-0 thrashing for Chelsea in Game 123, the first of those in the 13th minute: 2 points. Half the goals for Southampton in Game 124, but first goal was later in the 19th minute 1 point 2 points Plus 1 point for @Toinho for his 21st-minute choice. Table after Game 124: @6666 is now leading the way once again, overtaking @Devil-Dick Willie. @Redcanuck is up to 7th place, and @CaaC (John) goes to 9th despite picking up 1 point.

Automated once a poll is created.

It’s close but baja style tacos are basically unmatched so I have to go with tacos

Taco rage!

Lets see, a delicious mexican/texmex delicacy of meat, cheese and dressings in a carby delicious wrap (or corn crunchy holding thingy) or the same thing but smothered in fucking rice, where every second bite is bland as British food? Fuck me decisions decisions. If its a cali burrito with chips instead of rice it's a genuine debate. If it's a ricey fucking nightmare then fuck off, Taco all the way you dim cunts. Only on a fucking British forum is such a thing being hung so close, the closest thing to flavor you cunts get is vindaloo.

Exactly same for me. More preference of what and how much goes in!

I voted Burritos but could easily have swung towards a Taco too. Best from one of those food carts they have roaming around and when you don't know where the meat is coming from.

Feliz Navidad.

Estómago de gringo es muy débil

You know you’re getting some gringo ass shit when your tacos come on a holder.

Reminder @Pyfish @Rucksackfranzose @nawoo

Australia isn’t in the Middle East, fuckhead

I joined the original forum on the 29th of September 2009... Was doing my Master's degree in the Netherlands at that time. It was my first time living alone abroad!

My Mexico City trip (which is just in the planning stages, nothing set in stone yet) should be a far less gringo experience than my recent Puerto Vallarta experience which was the most gringo experience I've had in Mexico by far. But honestly, every trip to Mexico I've had has been pretty gringo because I am a gringo - I'm not sure actual Mexicans from Mexico have to deal with things like getting pulled over and told you've broken some traffic law you haven't broken... but really you're just in a rental car heading towards the border crossing. They'll tell you they have to take your drivers license unless you pay a "fine", but if you tell them you want an actual written citation and you'll go to the station with them to pay the fine they'll tell you to fuck off and go on your way. I'm pretty sure that is something that only happens to gringos.

A special place in @Dr. Gonzo you say? I'm interested.

I just took the first random picture I found on google.
