Needs hot sauce and pure uncut cocaine.

>>20615638
lettuce tomato cheddar cheese, jarred salsa

>>20615638
There are many good tacos out there. Why restrict yourself to only a few possibilities. I started getting some like pic related from the cafe attached to the Hispanic market. They're less expensive than Taco Bell down the street and are 100x better.

>>20615653
Cheese does NOT belong on a taco, and I'd say that salsa and other toppings drown out thebtaste of a good taco

>>20615658

>>20615638
Personally, I like to also add lime and some fresh green or red salsa. Protein, onion, cilantro, lime, and salsa is usually it for me. Some pickled veggies and slices of radish on the side.

>>20615658
Just eat your floppy corn shit plain then.

>>20615638
salsa is for adults, w/o is for children

>>20615662
>likes cheese on their taco
>calls someone LatinX
Kill you are self

>>20615638
I never get cilantro away from home. The contamination risk is too high. I do grow it at home hydroponically and joke sometimes about chopping some of it up and bringing it with me to a restaurant but never actually do.

>>20615638
There are so many delicious and authentic mexican salsa why limit yourself like that? FInd and make one that compliments the flavors of the meat/filling.

>>20615658
Go tell it to the Mexicans running the cafe that caters to other Mexicans. No doubt they'll be impressed with your lily white self berating them for not being as authentic as your suburban background.

>>20615648
fpbp

its true but it really does enhance it

>>20615638
Disagree.
My local taco shop has a very nice tomatillo sauce

>>20615638
Good tacos need hot sauce for truly great taste.

>>20615638
Disagree. Latinx people put different kinds of hot sauce on their authentic cilantro and onion tacos. I saw them do it in Mexico.

>>20616030
What? There's no such thing as latinx

>>20615638
What about chopped grilled jalapenos and perhaps cheese?

>>20615638
Wrong.

Cilantro tastes like soap to about 15% of the population. The percentage is even higher in people with certain Mediterranean heritage, specifically Spanish, Italian and Greek.

This means that the actual Spanish down there typically doesn’t like that soapy shit on their meal, and the ones who put it on EVERYTHING are the lobos and moriscos.

Fried offal quality meat, water, and corn meal, truly this is the height of cuisine. muh authentic tacos

>>20615638
You disagree, OP, you put lime on them, hypocritical faggot

>no lime or pico de gallo
the place near me also makes really good salsa verde but i get that it might distract from the flavor

>>20615638
Needs to be drenched in birria sauce to be trvly kino but other than that you are correct

>>20615648
I don't get all the hype around cocaine, it just made my friends and I sweaty and really annoying to talk to

>>20616220
Most people do cocaine late at night while drunk. I won't do any after 10am unless I'm playing poker or pool.

needs a good third of a cup of sour cream

>>20616416
>pool
You play any 9 ball?

>>20615638
I'd say that while a good taco doesn't need salsa, if you have decent salsa it's only going to improve things.

>>20615638
Honestly true. I'd just add some lime, that with the other two ingredients sufficiently makes the taco "moist" enough

>>20615638
In Kansas City, there's an old place called In-A-Tub where they deep-fry the tacos and add powdered cheese.

>>20615668
No, he said only onion and cilantro. So no bread or meat or cheese, just those 2 ingredients, like a salad fresca without tomato or chili

>>20615728
Contaminated with what?

>>20616220
Yeah coke is overrated as fuck. Its only good if you have a long drive home a head of you and you want to be able to sleep an hour later. Then a small key bump is good.
For any other purposes dexamphetamine is better.

>>20615638
lol mexicans slather those things with salsa.

squeeze of lime and green sauce is the way. they're okay without salsa, but like 10/10 with them

>>20618287
coke is only exalted by drinkers. i don't know anyone who's big into coke and doesn't drink.

I think we all know the answer to this.

>>20618296
i like authentic style way better, especially when they're made with carne asada, tongue, or barbacoa, but some american style tacos with a bunch of lettuce, tomato, cheese and sour cream on flour tortillas is also good as fuck. i never eat them that way anymore though, if i'm doing it american style with ground beef, i'm going to pour it on a plate of tortilla chips, melt a bunch of cheese on top, then cover with the lettuce, toppings, red sauce, sour cream, etc. fuck an american style taco, i want white trash nacho supreme if i'm going that route.

>>20618332
also that jarred or canned "queso sauce" is disgusting as fuck and should be banned.

Onions cilantro and lime are just deconstructed salsa

>>20615638
I like when they put a radish slice on the taco
also you need to have lime on the side

>>20615638
agree, but GREAT tacos do need salsa

>>20615945
Believe it or not only $1.83 after tax

tacos and burritos are in my top favorite foods. so many ways to make them for max taste. even the basic bare bones of just (insert meat/steak/whatever here)/cheese/lettuce/sauce is tasty AF. I remember a few years ago I lived off burritos and tacos for about 4 months straight. almost all I ate every day was homecooked burritos and tacos. Probably one of my favorite times for eating in my life since it was just huge massive portions of burrito or taco and i'd stuff my face and it was fucking good. Love seeing the pics in this thread of various burritos and tacos that have been made. i'd devour every single one

>>20616220
you probably got bad coke. i haven't done cocaine in probably 20 years but that shit makes me feel like God.

>>20618261
>*takes bite*
>*COUGH COUGH COUGH*
those look pretty good though

>>20615638
This, plus a good hot sauce or salsa over it, not too much. American fast food "tacos" are an abomination.

>>20615638
>Agree or disagree?
No salsa ass motherfucker
Pussy stay away from tacos you obviously have zero idea what makes one
Shitty post is shitty
Add salsa and lime
"Con todo" means with everything (as in the works) including salsa, lime and salt are as you please

>>20615638
Nah you need that red sauce especially if they're home made. Onions and cilantro on everything and a slice of radish between bites.

little bit of this on a plate of tacos al pastor is definitely top 5

Salsa
Ohhh of course

Fixings
Let's have a load of fixings
Salsa first it's a passion vh8s

I could post in a taco thread all night. step it up people 50 posts in this thread an hour minimum. discuss the glory of taco and burritos

If you don't like any one of these you ain't a friend of mine
Tinga de pollo
Cochinita pibil
Birria
Steak picado
Al pastor
Mole poblano

>>20615638
I like a good tangy salsa verde on mine.

>>20615638
You forgot Salsa and Guacamole

bumping the only other thread on this board I care about. discuss the glory that is tacos and burritos and all their goodness.

>>20620025
I've had shit that I tested to be >90% pure and still just got panic attacks, sweaty hands and heart palpitations. Idk if it's just that I need extremely small doses of stims or if its that some people can't handle some drugs but I know more people than me who get these effects.
But the same can be said with any drug. Some feel great on benzo, some just get drowsy, some people get no effect of opiates, some can't handle weed. Personally I can do a 10 strip of acid and still hold a decent conversation and others lose their fucking minds from 2 hits.

>>20622429
See i'll add to this. I cant even do 1 hit of acid without ruining everyones night cuz I sperg out. I can smoke weed all day and get totally mind melted from it but acid just jacks my whole existance up. Same with more than a couple shots of vodka... wine or whiskey is fine but vodka just causes me to get stupid drunk and pass out.

>>20622502
Huh, funny how even different types of strong booze can have different effects, never heard that one before, that's interesting

>>20622562
There are different esters, alcohols, and preservatives in different types of booze
That's why it's actually kind of important to drink a variety of drinks especially if you're drinking a lot for whatever reason
Some of them take longer to metabolize and they can build up in your fat and replace I forget what in your brain and nerves, it's why alcoholics get the shakes when the booze completely leaves their system, it can also be fatal
By drinking a variety of alcohols, you don't wind up with any particular build-ups
Also cheap booze has more tips and tails which are universally bad for you

>>20615638
Lime is always welcome.

>>20622562
yeah its strange. I can drink a large glass of wine than go play some twitch shooter video game and do ok with a comfy buzz. Drink the same amount of vodka and ive probably pissed myself while passed out drunk on the floor with my video game on pause if I even got that far loading it.
>>20622596
interesting to learn. Would explain a bit why vodka rocks me so hard compared to whiskey and wine. Brand and strength also plays a roll.

>>20615638
I like a squeeze of lime too

>>20615658
Cheese is better on tlacoyos.
>>20616220
Coke isn't for everyone. It didn't make me anxious but it just doesn't do it for me. One of my friends is dealing with a coke addiction right now and honestly I don't get it.
>>20618261
The fuck? I'm from Kansas City and never heard of this.

>>20618281
Shit.

>>20615638
I like squeezing the lime and putting the red and green sauces on it, part of the ritual.

>>20615638
i just put butter on a hot tortilla and call it a day.

So many different ways to make tacos. I love it. The local place down the road sells pizza and subs but sadly doesnt do tacos or i'd probably order a buttload of them and scarf down

>>20615638
Agree

>>20622662
This only works if you have good tortillas, and I have heard that tortillas in the US are different.
Also it’s butter AND salt.

>>20620288
i almost always prefer homemade but this is the one canned salsa i love just as much

>>20615638
lime, extra lime juice. 3 squeezed limes over one street taco
that's me

>>20615638
Forgot the lime, hombre

>>20622684
im just pointing out that good food should stand on its own.
but a taco is multiple foods.
tacos and all other recipies are about taking shitty food , combing it with other shitty food in the hopes that it averages out into something better.
good meat doesnt need to be put into a taco.
good butter doesnt need to be put on a tortilla.
a good taco serves its purpose. as a balanced meal you can eat in a few bites then get back to plowing the fields.

>>20615638
Good tacos need only a hint of salsa and cilantro with little onion.

>>20615653
Porqueria gringa. KYS.

>>20618261
Degeneracy.

>>20620288
It doesnt have any real avocado. Just peas and emulsifiers.

>>20615638
Cilantro is pure garbage

>>20622797
tastes like soap tbdesu

>>20622797
>>20622800
isnt celantro coriander?
what kinda fucking GMO bleached american coriander are you eating that tastes like soap

>>20622834
nvm

>>20622834
It's genetics
Some people can't correctly taste cilantro and to them it tastes like dishwashing soap

>>20615638
good tacos don't even need that, just meat and tortilla. we add stuff as enhancements, not necessarily because it's needed.

>>20622848
You're right. I've had plenty of meat and tortilla burritos before when pressed for time and lacking other stuff to put on it. a bit bland but completely edible and filling. tho if you can put on at least some taco sauce to add some flavor thats great but yes a plain tortilla and meat combo is perfectly fine.

>>20622848
Good meat taco needs saltd and lime juice.

>>20622848
Wrong. No Latinx person ever eats naked tacos. I never saw a Latinx person do that once in Mexico. They have little topping stations where you put what you want like onion, cilantro, lime, hot sauce et cetera.

>>20622887
latin not latinx you woke leftist queer

>>20622906
Until they change their bigoted sexist outdated language, they’re Latinx.

>>20615638
Don't forget a squeeze of lime juice

>>20622911
latin not latinx you woke liberal lefist asshole forcing your ways on others like a petty dictator. left constantly does this type of behavior.

>>20622911

>>20622952
Change your language or we'll change it for you, Juanitx.

>>20622752
god shut the fuck up with your gayass philosophical diatribes about food

>>20622952
I love making gusanos seethe

>>20622749
Bastard.

>>20622911
Idiot. Latinx is so dumb and pathetic.

>>20623019
*gusanxs

>>20623391
Yes they are.

>>20622622
>drink glass of 14% alcohol, feel fine.
>drink glass of 40% alcohol, get wasted.
Damn man, bizarre how that happens to you, some crazy, unique, inexplicable experience you have there.

>>20623442
Troll.

>>20623011
just slop up my taco bby and shove it in my face.

el mejor taco es el taco grasoso.
Just like pussy. The best pussy is the one that's wet, moisty, no need to lube. Your dick goes through it like a red hot scalpel on a newborn's neck

>>20615638
I've never thought about but I think I do agree

>>20622657
I always thought making a taco is a whole ritual
From the taquero prepping the food early morning to the eater, putting the toppings.

>lime
>salsa verde
>shit ton of cilantro
>diced white onion
>cabbage
>crazy nigger mode: roasted serrano

>>20615638
Hard disagree. You forgot the lime and maybe a pinch of salt. Perfection. Gimme all the Al pastor you have.

>>20615638
it probably needs a tortilla at least

Would this be good in tacos?

>>20625857
not if you're spilling it all over the table like that what the fuck

>>20625857
my wife says she liked your mango

>>20625883

>>20615658
>Cheese does NOT belong on a taco
My workplace is 95% Mexican, and they definitely love putting cheese on their tacos. I see them do this shit every single day at lunch break.

>>20625995
tacos + cheese is a thing. I love watching autisms screech NO CHEESE! NO CHEESE! REEEEEE. shut up peasant cheese on a taco is tasty AF.

>>20626044
Made chicken tinga with beef tamales and pork green chili with queso fresco
Served with limes, radish, avocado slices, and salsas (not pictured) the cilantro, sadly, was all brown and gross so I had to sub green onion
The green salsa had cilantro, though

>>20615638
you're thinking about it the wrong way.

the taste comes from the mix of oils fat and grease and lard on the tortillas, and meat.

you serve with lime/limon to get the best taste f meat. it's simple really.

Salsa cilantro and onions GREATLY fuck up a good taco, and you're not a child for asking without these ingredients.

maciza, surtido, chicharron are great. in places they don't know how to make tacos your best bet is tripa beef/fajita whatever is called and maybe barbacoa if they dont screw it up.

Al pastor is only good in mexico. I would add guacamole to my heart's content to mexican food, especially breaded fish tacos but that's just me.

you get the taste from the mix of grease and lards, if you try to make it too clean you're going to fuck it up the mexican food. mexican food is not supposed to be healthy. too many people don't know how to make it and still sell

>>20615658
it depends. the cheese has to be good de hebra, oaxaca or fresco but a good taco doesn't need cheese.

now if you're eating texmex alambre and add salsa pace its a small sin.

but adding cheese because you don't know how to make a taco means the taco is bad to begin with
