National Taco Day October 4th

National Taco Day

Last year Americans ate over 4.5 billion tacos!  That’s 490,000 miles of tacos, which could take you to the moon and back. When is National Taco Day? National Taco Day is October 4th.

The word taco is the Mexican equivalent of the English word sandwich. The tortilla, which is made of corn or wheat, is wrapped or folded around a filling that is generally made of spiced proteins – beef, pork, or fish.

For National Taco Day this October 4, consider the countless variations you can create using traditional meats or with seafood, chicken, beans, cheese, and eggs. Yank out your garnishes – salsa, cilantro, avocado, tomatoes, onions, and lettuce and you have a dish of great versatility and variety.
