Riddle me this, Batman

Why is it when you open up a Taco Kit with both hard & soft tacos, the soft tacos have to be wrapped in plastic and the hard tacos in foil, yet the soft tacos come wrapped in FOIL and the hard ones in PLASTIC?

It’s a plot! A plot, I tell ya!

I’m sorry, a Taco Kit? What is this Taco Kit of which you speak?

Taco … kit? :eek:

Sigh…it comes with 6 hard tacos, 6 soft tacos, seasoning, and a little packet of salsa. You provide the beef, cheese, and lettuce.

Now…where was I? OH YEAH!!! It doesn’t make any sense!

Why do hard and soft have to be wrapped in foil and plastic, respectively?

Perhaps you also want to know where the bean, beef and cheese burritos are.

Y’know, this thread gets really nasty when you onsider “taco” to mean … oh never mind. I prefer a beef-filled soft taco, myself. No cheese. bleah!

The hard must be baked in the oven, the soft in the microwave.

And to forestall the questions, I like my tacos soft and he likes his hard. I like hard tacos, but they fall all apart and you can’t keep stuff in them.

And Inigo, thanks a lot. Now I keep seeing double-meanings to everything. :stuck_out_tongue:

It took me a minute, but something like this?

Jerk moderator.
This shouldn’t have been closed.
I really want to know why the taco kit comes packaged like that.
He’s never going to live that down. :smiley:

My guess would be that the plastic prevents the hard shells from snapping.

BZZZT! wrong answer, every gringo who’s dated south of the border knows that the only true way to heat the soft ones is directly on a gas flame burner.

And they are not called ‘tacos’ they are called tortillas, they are made of flour or corn, once filled, the dish is then sometimes refered to as a taco.

:stuck_out_tongue: so there.

But I don’t have a gas burner. Only electric stove.

And of course I know it’s a tortilla! But I’m not going to eat it like that, so functionally it’s a taco.

You can use an electric burner as well.

I’ve never cooked the shell before…
