Tacos are derived from an aztec dish that was much the same, if filled with different ingredients. They're as Mexican as moles.

- thaumasiotes 10y agoEh, "much the same as a taco, but filled with different ingredients" means a flatbread wrapped around any filling at all. They're considered quite innovative in the US now under the name "wraps", and can claim to be local to many different cuisines. The fact that they're authentically Mexican won't change the fact my dad thinks of them as being less Mexican than tamales, or that 2-3 generations back their penetration was such that a farming community didn't even know the word.
