Taco Fun Facts
- Americans eat billions of tacos every year
- The taco predates the arrival of the Spanish in Mexico. There is anthropological evidence that the indigenous people living in the lake region of the Valley Of Mexico traditionally ate tacos filled with small fish.
- Mexican tradition states that seafood tacos are meant to be eaten at lunch and antojitos are to be eaten at dinner time.
- The most common type of taco in the US is the hard-shell, U-shaped version. The soft-shelled tacos are corn tortillas that are cooked to a softer state.
