Once in a while, the cafeteria has make-your-own-taco day, which is a major event in my little world. It costs 31 cents per ounce or something like that. Today they even had fresh jalapeños instead of the crappy canned ones!
God, I want a taco.
Or an egg salad sandwich. I don’t know why; I don’t even like egg salad. But I don’t get off until 9 and I’d cut a bitch for a taco and an egg salad sandwich.
I vote this is the greatest MPSIMS thread I have ever read.
It was awesome.
I shall read it again to savor its MPSIMSness.
Tacos rule.
It’s one of the few things I agree with President Bush about.
I haven’t had egg salad in a while. I did just have a nice sammich, though, with salami, provolone, and red onion, among other things.
Mmmmmm…tacos. Might just put that on the menu for Sunday.
I made do with a pimento cheese sandwich for lunch.
Fish tacos are my favorites, when they’re made well. The cafeteria does have fish tacos every once in a while, but they suck. You can make a beef or chicken taco out of crappy ingredients and still have it taste pretty good (e.g. Taco Bell), but if you botch a fish taco, the eater’s taste buds are in for a world of hurt.
Fresh jalapeños from Mexico are on sale these days. Beware of Taco Day.
I hate to admit it, but taco day in the cafeteria increases my job satisfaction at least 30% for that day. And we don’t even get to make our own!
About twice a month it’s Taco night at El Rancho swampbear. I gotta say I make a damn fine taco.
It was taco day at Casa Rebo today. Thay were excellent, along with leftover pintos, and some queso a la Rotel… Yum!
10 hours later, and still no sign of impending diarrhea. Looks like I may be in the clear!
Man, they’ve really gone up.
Nice thing about tacos is that it doesn’t matter if you buy the finest ingredients and make 'em from scratch or toss pesos at a grimy street vendor in Matamoras, it’s still the same bite of heaven. Like cancer and sharks, tacos are somehow always, always free from affliction.
God, Friday, when I went home, I really wanted an egg-salad sandwich. And I was just obsessing about it and I was like: ‘Man, I’m gonna make one of those.’ So, Saturday I went out and got, like, a dozen eggs and I boiled them all and then I just spent, I don’t know, probably three hours… like three and a half hours making the mayonnaise and the onions and paprika and all the accoutrements. And then by the time I was done I just really didn’t feel like eating it. And I didn’t have any bread.

I’ll never be able to settle down and make a life for myself in Japan; they don’t have any Mexican food.
