/ck/ - Food & Cooking

It isn't that people don't like them, just that they're more common and simpler when compared against a lot of other dishes. It's easier/faster to get tacos from a truck or a restaurant for a quick lunch than something more difficult to make, so if I'm eating at a Mexican joint I'm more likely to try something else simply because I have it less often.

>>11224063

>>11224063
They're shitty spic sandwitches.

>>11224063
I'd say with most people it's just latent xenophobia and racism, at least with white people that is. Whites are especially threatened and intimidated by Latinos for a multitude of reasons, and this primitive fear and hatred manifests itself as a dislike of their culture, most commonly their food, language, and clothing.

Because it's stupid to pay $3+ for a tiny taco at a mediocre restaurant when I can easily make the same thing at home for a fraction of the cost.

>>11224104
This is true. Why are whites so hateful?

>>11224063
Would you order a hotdog, a ham sandwich, an ice pop, a yoghurt or a banana at a restaurant? Doesn't mean you don't like them...faggot

>>11224063
Because coriander

>>11224121
This board is for Americans.

>>11224063
posting in epic thread :D

>>11224127
speak american then bitch

>>11224140
Cilantro.

Al pastor tacos are my favorite food. Beaners know how to cook pork.

>>11224063
>most people dislike tacos
This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read on /ck/ if you're serious. Tacos are ridiculously popular, they're easily in the top 10 most consumed categories of ethnic food and Mexican has its own dedicated filter on most delivery services. You might as well ask why most people dislike pizza.

>>11224154
You do know who invented al pastor, right?

>>11224157
>This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read on /ck/ if you're serious. Tacos are ridiculously popular
You say this, but Mexican restaurants are basically unheard of outside the Southwest.

>>11224160
Arabs get the credit for the style but I doubt they invented a pork dish.

>>11224063
Like most things from Mexico, they represent poor hygiene, poverty, and hairy females

>>11224147
>constantly complain about spics and English
>can't stop using their languages and eating their foods

>>11224171
I once visited a Mexican restaurant in Denmark during the 1980's.

>>11224185
that's how the world thinks of americans but replace hairy with morbidly obese
>>11224187
I've visited loads of 'Mexican' restaurants but they've been 99% Tex-Mex

>>11224110
>>11224104
Lmao seriously
he killing of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts has prompted criticism of the U.S. immigration system because the man charged in her death is a Mexican farmworker. But the victim's father told mourners he's been embraced by the local Hispanic community.

Speaking Sunday afternoon to more than 1,000 people at a ceremony at his daughter's former high school, Rob Tibbetts didn't directly respond to comments by President Donald Trump and others who quickly seized upon the suspect's citizenship to argue for changes in immigration laws.

However, The Des Moines Register reports that Tibbetts said he encountered Hispanics at Mexican restaurants and elsewhere who were sensitive and kind during the weeks he spent in the central Iowa community of Brooklyn to help search for his daughter.

"The Hispanic community are Iowans. They have the same values as Iowans," he said. "As far as I'm concerned, they're Iowans with better food."

Dude's daughter is killed and he's thinking "man taco's are sure good"

>>11224197
>ve visited loads of 'Mexican' restaurants but they've been 99% Tex-Mex
Why would that distinction matter here when we are talking about tacos? Tex-mex has tacos.

>go to local Tex-Mex joint
>order chili verde
>the dumb beaner brings me flour tortillas because I’m a golden haired gringo

He seemed angry when I asked for corn tortillas.

>>11224213
But they're not authentic mexican tacos. Tex-mex is vastly different from mex-mex.

>>11224104
Virgin detectes. White girls fucking love tacos. Every single one of them

>>11224213
I'm in the UK. Tex-Mex tacoes are ground beef in hard shells, nothing else

>>11224220
>But they're not authentic mexican tacos. Tex-mex is vastly different from mex-mex.
I'm not disputing that, but it sounds like goalpost moving. Nobody specified that we are only talking about "authentic Mexican tacos" here.

>>11224229
see above

>>11224241
Miss me with that cultural appropriation.

>>11224211
I don't see what your point is? One cuck in a million proves nothing. It's an absolute fact that whites despise Latinos and oppress them both in the homelands (thanks CIA) and here in the United States and Canada.

>>11224249
How is appropriation when Mexicans made invented the dishes?

>>11224257
I think whites have been pretty tolerant consider 30 million illegals live here.

>>11224257
wait if they're so oppressed why are they coming here in the millions?
It's almost like your narrative of oppression has no basis in reality when cucks like this guy are the norm because if it wasn't they would be given the boot

>>11224241
nobody orders tacos at a restaurant in the US because they are everywhere and not a sit down meal. People in the UK would order Tex-Mex tacos because they are the most Mexican thing they know outside of a few restaurant in London. Understand?

>>11224063
Because I feel like a pig when eating them.
They're messy and just not worth it.
Burritos tho are awesome

>>11224257
It's just like how Jews fled to Nazi Germany to escape the virulent eastern european antisemitism.

This thread is stupid and gay and besmirch the glory of the humble taco.

>>11224267
>30 million
Time to detox from Breitbart and F(au)x news.
>There were 12.1 million immigrants living in the country illegally as of January 2014, according to the most recent estimate from the Department of Homeland Security. The estimates from two independent groups are similar: The Pew Research Center estimates the number at 11.1 million in 2014, and the Center for Migration Studies says there were 11 million people in 2015 living in the U.S. illegally (see Table 1 in the full report).

https://www.factcheck.org/2018/06/illegal-immigration-statistics/

>>11224303
Jewish lies.

>>11224303
Even one illegal is too many.

>>11224288
Sure, I understand what you're saying. But I don't understand what that point has to do with the claim we are discussing, going back to >>11224157

It doesn't matter if you Brits are consuming authentic tacos or bastardized tex-mex tacos, either is sufficient for 11224157's point.

Furthermore, your point is incorrect. I live in Texas and I travel throughout the US often on business. Ordering tacos at a sit-down restaurant is extremely common here.

>>11224303
>2014
It's 2018
4 years is a lot of time

I'm probably going to sound like a pleb but I would honestly rather eat Taco Bell tacos over ""street"" tacos served in a restaurant.

>>11224104
>>11224110
>>11224257
Always a few professional victims that show up in these threads. They scream in outrage at racist comments against their native ethnicity but are completely comfortable making racist comments against ethnicities other than their own.

Welcome to hypocrisy, bitches.

>>11224063
If I'm going to a restaurant, the last thing I'm going to order are tacos, unless I'm at a Mexican restaurant. I like tacos, though

>>11224468
Fuck off, colonizer. Let indigenous peoples shape their own destinies. Everything doesn't always need white people input.

>>11224063
Ironically I assembled the tacos at my station on the line in a fine dinning restaurant in Spokane. Once an order went out to the bar, I would usually get slammed with 6-7 orders about a minute later.

>>11224480
Great advice from a snowflake crying oppression about the events of hundreds of years ago.

>>11224505
White people always make it about themselves and their "culture". PoC don't need or want your help, pity, or sympathy.

>>11224512
That has absolutely nothing to do with what I said. Sounds like someone's pasting the hottest "poor us" ethnic tweet of the week every post for lack of an actual point.

>>11224521
Go back to your euopean cave. Your people fucked over the entire world and now you just want to say "That was a long time ago, can't we just get along so I can oppress you some more"? The world doesn't work that way, sweaty.

>>11224211
>putting food before woman
Fucking based

>>11224063
Why don't people order spaghetti at nice italian restaurants? When people make the time commitment and pay the expense to eat at a sitdown place they want to have a more complex dish.

>>11224534
I rest my case. Try some therapy, sounds like you could use some help not feeling like such a victim all the time. You'll eventually learn that your ability to accomplish things for yourself goes up exponentially when you stop trading away your power and authority to others. Try a little history to see how real change is accomplished. Might I suggest MLK, Malcolm X, Gandhi, and Mandela as a good foundation? If you need a bigger list, learn about Maya Angelou, Frederick Douglas, Rosa Parks, Malala Yousafzai, and Harvey Milk.

Know what they had in common? They didn't waste their life boohooing about how bad they had it while doing absolutely nothing to affect real change. You should try it sometime.

>>11224315
I'm just going off OP's comment about people not ordering them. Tex-Mex is a sit down meal for some people here but I wouldn't go and order a taco in one, as I'm sure you wouldn't and neither would most of ck.

>>11224684
I've ordered tacos at sit-down restaurants many times. Every Mexican or Tex-Mex place I've ever visitied has tacos on the menu.

>>11224512
Why the fuck are they all immigrating to the States and Europe then?

>>11224512
>PoC don't need or want your help
Oops look like it's time to leave our country then

>>11224348
It's the most accurate current assessment available. It derives from drumpf's own current xenophobic Dept. of Homeland Security (aka, SS) based on best data available. Your only hope is detoxing as recommended previously.

>>11224171
That is patently false

>>11224885
No it's true, aside from Texas, Florida, and New Mexico you have maybe 1 or 2 Mexican restaurants in every major city and that's it. Even Taco Bells are rare north of the Mason Dixon.

>>11224901
I’ve been all over the country and you’re full of shit. Mexicans and their food are everywhere now.

>Why do most people dislike tacos
They don’t. You just live in Arkansas.

>>11224905
Excuse me but the whole country is not southern california. You need to get out more.
Mexican restaurants don't exist in large parts of the country. There are no towns of 50k with Mexican restaurants lmao

>>11224901
That's nonsense. I was just in Mentor, Ohio on business. I counted about twenty, and that's not exactly a "major city" and it's pretty fucking far from the mason-dixon line.

>>11224901
You are just making stuff up, and it's kinda funny, but I want non-Americans to understand that you are joking around.

>>11224910
>live in town of 50k
>have at least a dozen Mexican restaurants on top of some nationwide chains
You're retarded.

>>11224910
Are you the OP who lives in Idaho?

>>11224910
>There are no towns of 50k with Mexican restaurants lmao
Just for fun I looked up all the Mexican restaurants in a town of 50k in Virginia. Google maps knows of 45 there.

>>11224063
Tacos are a simple dish you gringos and chicanos overcomplicate so much and ruin it, the simple combination of real corn tortillas, meaty filling and a two sauces, red sauce spicy and complex or green herbal and fresh its rare even in México, it's mainly a Mexico city thing. Mango pico de gallo and doritos hard shell are unnecessary.

>>11224932
desu i dont even make tacos w. sauce

meat, white onion diced fine, cilantro. finito

>>11224104
based

>>11224910
>>11224918
Niggahs, this mex restauraunt just opened 1 year ago in a southern shithole town of 1600 people.

>>11224922
I'm sure there's more than one Idahofag here, but actually >>11224918 was me. Just because we're ambulatory potatoes doesn't mean we're all retarded lol.

>>11225295
2nd person you quoted here. Dunno why you included me, we're in agreement.

>>11224104

on what planet

>>11224063
unless you get your tacos from a truck, street stall, then you're paying too much for mediocre tacos

>>11225337
don't you know anon, you can't be racist against white folk

>>11224160
The penicillin guy?

>>11224063
who the fuck hates tacos? it takes a long time to make at home but cheap as fuck and very easy.

>>11224063
>dislike tacos
No one does, but why would you order them at a restaurant? I'd order tacos from a stand or a truck all day, but if I'm going to a sitdown I'll order something different.

>>11224160
Arab tacos are different because they use lamb
>>11224182 this guy is right, the Al pastor style is a mexican variation (when lebanese immigrants went to mexico and brought the Kebab) using pork marinated with achiote

>>11224063
>Why do most people dislike tacos?

>>11224901
I live in Casey County, KY. There are about twenty different Mexican restaurants within an hour's drive from me. The closest one is 8 minutes away.

>>11224063
You'd be more capable of answering your own anecdotal account than I would OP.

>>11224063
Tacos are good. I would never order one at a genuine sit-down Mexican restaurant because there are more interesting things on the menu. Like chimichangas.

>>11224512
>PoC don't need or want your help, pity, or sympathy
Then why do you always ask for all of those things?

>>11224534
Lmao, you don't know what oppression is. I really hope you get to find out

>>11225295
There are 3 Mexican restaurants in the town next to me and it's even smaller than that.

>>11224480
Get fucked, Paco. Not our fault if you subhumans were unable to defend yourselves. Natural selection exists for a reason.

>>11226900
But Anon
Paco is an Spanish name,Spanish people colonized and killed basically most natives and raped their woman into submission.


Btw prehispanic civilizations achieved great things if you think otherwise you can go back to your degenerate Roman cities and drink wine spiced with lead

Nice joke guys but it's simply not true. Mexican restaurants don't exist in the northeast. I had to drive down to florida and didn't see one until south carolina. The whole world is not your little coastal city bubble.

Just because nobody orders tacos in your fly over town doesn't mean the rest of us civilized Americans don't love and enjoy genuine tacos on the regular

From Rhode Island and can confirm. Have to travel all the way to NYC for a taco place and even then you only have the choice between 2.

>>11224063
yurocucks hate tacos because they can't have real tacos
