Tacotuesday

I love tacos. And no, I don’t mean those crisp and crunchy corn shells we tend to get around here. I mean, I’m not wholly against that Tex-Mex stuff; it’s a perfectly serviceable snack, those crunchy things that taste like giant big korn bites, filled with spicy mince, shredded lettuce, guacamole, sour cream and liberal amounts of cheese. Those are alright. What I really love though, are proper tacos.

Soft, warm flour or corn tortillas, topped with fillings that are usually undeniably fresh; a bit of coriander (or cilantro, if you prefer), an invigorating squeeze of lime and salsa fresca over pork carnitas? That’s the sort of stuff that makes me a happy man. Even better? Tacos Cabeza – where the meat comes from a roasted cows head; tongue, lips, cheeks – you get the idea. It sounds gross, but it’s magical.

      And sometimes you get only half cheese when full cheese was promised.

      I’m looking at you AAA developers and Domino’s.

            February 3, 2015 at 16:32

            Ahhh yes Schrodinger’s theory but still there’s the question of how the racoon got in a box that won’t open

            How’s that paradox for ya

          • Admiral Chief

            February 3, 2015 at 16:33

            It is easy, the box can be closed without any issues, opening it is another problem

          • Corrie

            February 3, 2015 at 16:38

            Ahhh interesting???

            You seem to know quite a bit about the box?…..why is that?

            That’s the solution to everthing !! and also the worst night for some that grapple onto things that they shouldn’t when they were using that glue

          • Admiral Chief

            February 3, 2015 at 16:37

            Superglue should never be stored close to KY jelly

          • Corrie

            February 3, 2015 at 16:52

            Wait why is it stored next to the jelly? is there something your not telling us?

            Nope, just imparting some pretty obvious life lessons. You know how the world is, if you don’t put warning labels on things, people hurt themselves
