traditional Peruvian tamales have olives. maybe the Incas were onto something....

Must have been a tradition that started after 1492, since the olive was introduced from Europe. |

I don't know. Tacos, burritos, enchiladas, tostadas.
It's all the same. You fold the tortilla one way it's one thing. Don't fold it and it's another. Tacos were probably 'invented' a thousand times
before someone called them that.
Put cheese in a taco, heat it, and it's a quesadilla.
I think I'll put cooked cherries in a tortilla and give it a name.
The invention of a tortilla is probably the only thing that's significant.

Uh hu.
There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

I like BajaTripper's answer, because there is less BS and more fish in his taco story!
My first fish taco was in San Felipe at the walk up stands along the main street by the curio stores in 1978 or so... Same time as Ralph Rubio
'discovered them'. I turned my friends onto them (who all gave me the face... a FISH taco??? at first), but eneded up eating several more before we
returned to our camp at Shell Island. They were 20 cents then.
