double decker
damnit. fine though, added.

Answer is crunchy. You can turn it into a taco salad if you get bored with it.
-
Soft tacos are the boneless wing of Mexican food. No thanks.
-
i love it when my crunchy taco gets all soggy and starts falling apart. or when i bite into it and half the shell cracks and then everything falls apart.
just kidding. soft. all. day.
-
nice of you to make an option for _FENCE!

DD mos def

i've never quite got the double decker dorks or triple d's as my friends and i all call them. the shell is nothing more than an edible bowl for the tastier insides and you dorks have gone and basically stuck a bowl inside of a bowl. because why? because you like eating bowls? is that it? why not just save us all some time, drive to the grocery store, get a bunch of bowls and then go back home and just keep eating until you pass out and leave the actual taco eating to those of us that like eating tacos.

Yeah, this. "Oh I'll just take a bite out of this lovely crunchy taco.....welp, I didn't want the rest of it anyway".
-
I was a soft kid but grew up into a hard man. Hard it is, pass the watery hot sauce. TIA
-
Hard Tacos ......... since you didnt have the best of the best- street taco style corn tortilla.
-
it isn't lunch unless you hear the crunch. that's what i always say.
-
crunchy
-
Soft by a slim margin. I won't begrudge hard, they are good too.
-
This was about to be one hell of a snack-off until the "get both" option was added. Crisis averted.
-
Soft is so mumped!
-
"Soft tacos please because I'm an idiot and this happens when I try to eat a crunchy taco HERP"

whenever a food loser picks the wrong option he always blames it on how hard the other option is to eat. have you guys noticed that? wings with actual bones in them? my god i'd have wing sauce all over my face/hair. no way. crunchy tacos? i think not. it might possible get a little soggy or whatever and break apart. soft all the way, is what i say. it's like eating is long division and i'm in a room full of second graders.
-
flour shells? gmafb. Crunchy.
-
I try to avoid Taco Bell if I can. But if the gringo in me wins out or I'm just in a hurry and hungry in the Detroit airport or something, I bypass all of the above and just get a Crunchwrap Supreme (w/fire sauce - better make it a half dozen or more packets, and a Mr. Pibb - don't think they have Dr. Pepper).
Admittedly, I didn't read RD's description and parameters before I answered the poll. I answered "soft."
Soft tacos (with two corn tortillas if machine pressed or just one if hand pressed) are TRUE tacos mexicanos. Lettuce? Cheese? Nope. Top 'em with cilantro, onions (minched/diced), chile (the sauce, not the soup), and lime (MAYBE some pico de gallo and avocados). Or those pickled red onions if way down South in México or Central America.
My faves are tacos de pastor (but tripas, barbacoa, bistec, pollo - they're all good too; not big on brain tacos).
-
Hey someone go to rick daris' favorite place La Hacienda and tell me which tacos have the option of a hard shell.
-
i think maybe a lot of people are missing the "at a place like taco bell or similar" part
-
nice of you to make an option for _FENCE!
Uhm, no. If he made an option for _FENCE it would be Doritos Locos.
Also, fire/verde sauce combo is a must on any of these options.
-

Guilty as charged. :frown:

_FENCE is off the fence and tobias is on the fence for this one, what a crazy world these smackoffs can be :emawkid:

oh man i love tacos.

yeah. i get what i call a quatro taco. hard shell on the outside, then two soft shells and then another hard shell inside of them.
hmm what about meat and stuff?
who has any room for that? the quatro sure doesn't.
man that sounds awesome.
boom bada bing you better believe it.

_Fence, have you tried a cheesy gordita crunch with a doritos locos shell? They're simply _FANtastic.

I think all day at work. Snacking should be a mindless activity that doesn't involve strategy or frustration.
-
you get the feel and security of soft with the crunch that hard tacos give you.. I mean its honestly perfect

Double decker, best of both worlds.

I do not like crunchy. Never had double decker. Soft it is. Chalk it up. :buh-bye:

My two favorite things - crunchy taco and bean burrito.
Double Decker it must be.

Yes, this is why I like the doubler decker. Because you get beans which the other options don't have.
-
Sometimes I eat too savagely and swallow large shards of shell which lacerate my esophagus. Also soft is authentico. Also at non authentic places soft tacos are bigger. Soft is the winner here, kids.
-
does the gooeyness of the soft flour shell not bother you people? oh the humanity.
-
Soft. They taste better.

Where are you getting tacos that are gooey?

I believe he is referring to the sogginess of the tortilla from the residual juice coming from your choice of protein filler.
P.S. Go hard or go home.

sounds like he needs the protective mechanisms a DDT provides!

I voted for dd tacos because they're more bang for your buck.
If I were to choose between the other two it would be 100% this:
I was a soft kid but grew up into a hard man. Hard it is, pass the watery hot sauce. TIA

Taco eating 101: Hold the back of your taco at a downward angle so the juice drips out onto your plate or napkin. Alternative: if you DON'T want to lose the juice (like me), hold the (soft) taco such that you can pinch the back end closed between your pinky and ring fingers.
Pro-tip: don't take forever to eat the taco and it won't get soggy (either crunchy or soft). Tacos aren't meant to sit around long term. :impatient:

I'd go with this, except for the last part, crunchy with bean and cheese burrito on the side. I mean, I like chicken, corn, mashed potatoes, but I'm not running to KFC to ask them to throw it all together in a fuckin bowl so it's all soggy.
Crunchy.
-
I try to never go to Taco Bell, but when I do, I always get the crunch wrap supreme. I crunchy shell, wrapped in a soft shell that's, get this, grilled, so it ends up being slightly crunchy itself. Mind blown, and the correct answer
-
i don't believe that there are restaurants that actually serve crunchy tacos
-
Soft. Hard taco people are complete idiots.
-
Had a few softs @tacolucha tonight :gocho:
-
god dammit. can we go back to tots vs fries discussion?
-
Soft. Hard taco people are complete idiots.
now that I think about it, I don't think I have ever met an intelligent person who prefers hard shell tacos

tacos are tearing this board apart
