- lordnacho 4y agoMarmite is polarising, you can legitimately like or dislike it. What you're suggesting is inflammatory legitimisation of an abhorrent practice.

- emodendroket 4y agoHonestly the disdain for them is a _little_ silly when they're not that different from a tostada (in fact, Taco Bell, in their failed foray into Mexico, called their tacos "Tacostadas" to give Mexican customers the idea).
- gkop 4y agoWhat kind of taco do you picture when you think of a hard-shelled taco? I picture American tacos (which are not good tacos, though I wouldn’t say I “disdain” them per se).
- emodendroket 4y agoOh well ground beef with “taco seasoning” is not necessarily that compelling. But the concept of a hard shell for tacos itself seems not that different from the impulse behind tostadas (or taquitos or flautas).

- jeegsy 4y ago> in their failed foray into Mexico Really, they actually tried this? What were they thinking??
- emodendroket 4y agoIt's not really "Mexican food" and they weren't trying to get in that lane but to be something different. It's not that crazy. Panda Express has been somewhat successful in Asia.
