    Hard and soft tacos? How accommodating.

      Are hard tacos actually nice to eat? Whenever I see them in movies and such, it seems like the tortilla would just shatter the moment you bite into it.

        It’s like a tortilla made of a giant cornchip. Breakage can be an issue but they don’t explode like glass or anything.

        Soft tacos are easier to eat but you can’t get Doritos crunchy taco shells as a soft taco

          That’s just toast in Spanish, it’s not a specific meal or anything.

            Not sure if my incorrect spelling above is the issue. But this is from Wikipedia, which seems to reflect my understanding of what this is.

            Tostada is the name given to various dishes in Mexico and Guatemala which include a toasted tortilla as the main base of their preparation. The name usually refers to a flat or bowl-shaped tortilla that is deep-fried or toasted, but may also refer to any dish using a tostada as a base.

            Edit: oh wait I did spell it correctly…

              Oh, I find it weird that many latin american countries name dishes as other common words, but now that you mention it it’s true.

              At least in Spain, and according to google translate and deepl (I checked to make sure), tostada is the literal translation of toast and it’s used as such.

          I guess gentooer means eating a tostada with something on it as comparison of a hard tortilla.

          No, Mexican food isn’t very prevalent here. I’ve only ever had genuine tacos in a Mexican restaurant on holiday in Dublin.

        I like hard shell tacos, though I will say it’s often an exercise in creatively holding broken pieces of taco as I eat it. The secret is to spread a tortilla with refried beans (or any other food that can serve as glue; guac, sour cream, melted cheese, etc) then wrap that around the hardshell taco for a best of both worlds experience. It’s also very much a white people taco night thing; I’d never want a hard shell for a good Mexican or texmex style taco, but if you’re talking about ground beef in a Mccormick spice blend with peripherals from the “mexican” aisle of an American supermarket, hard shells are dope.

        The white chair is TripTrap made by Stokke (At least the original design, guess it’s been pirated by other makers) This could have been any Nordic country as well apart from the details ofc :) I blame IKEA for that

        So the Norwegian Forest Cat is sitting on the Norwegian children chair :)

        Edit. Think it might be a siberian actually…

                Is there some kind of reference to this that I accidentally made? I was asking an honest question because Maine Coons tend to have extra toes (polydactyl).

                  No.

                  I’m sorry for interjecting such a random reference into the conversation, but it just popped into my head right then. And I’m weird so…

                  Edit: my friend has a Maine Coon. I’ll ask if it’s a polydactyl. Interesting that it has that genetic trait.

          The dealbreaker for me is that a nordic home would never have pre-sliced cheese on the table but rather a big block of cheese and a cheese slicer.

                We’ve switched back and forth between pre sliced and blocks. But stayed with blocks after watching an episode of “Keuringsdienst van waarde” where you see how much un-cheese presliced cheese actually is.

    Next taco night, add a bit of water to your sour cream to make it a little bit runny. Then add a bit of salt, some lime juice and smoked paprika. Is nice.

      This is why I prefer low-fat sour cream for burritos and tacos, it’s a little runnier. I just throw some finely diced shallots in there and leave it for some time in the fridge.
