Growing up, I thought your average taco came out of an "Old El Paso" box.

I also thought they were gross.
Then I moved to Austin and realized that tacos are the most amazing thing ever. You can wrap anything in a tortilla! Eggs, veggies, tofu, spinach, turkey, etc., it's all better when wrapped in a lovely little tortilla.
Here's what you need to know about tacos in the non-Old El Paso world:
You're either a flour tortilla person:
My personal favorite. They're soft and fluffy and complement so many things.
Or a corn tortilla person:

Corn tortillas are wheat and gluten free, low in calories and fat, and all around just healthier. Unfortunately, they're not my favorite of the two-- go figure.
What tortilla are you?
