Things are coming...

you can put anything you want in a quesadilla, too - it becomes a quesadilla when you grill it. if you grill a soft taco, then it is no longer a soft taco, but a quesadilla. i know a burrito is traditionally a burrito because of what you put in it, but i vote for how you wrap it - simply because that is what i go on.

Speaking of burritos, what are these looney creations they came up with in San Diego called "California Burritos"? Carne Asada, french fries, cheese, lettuce, and pico. Sounds nasty, but damn good.

yes i would

totally ingredients brotha

You mean to tell me that if you had let's say, a tortilla filled with meat, cheese, lettuce, and some kind of salsa (somewhat standard taco), and it was folded and rolled that you would say you are eating a taco?

I can't believe we are having this discussion. Anything wrapped fully IS A BURRITO. A taco is anything that's folded and looks like a friggin' taco. End of story! We have California burritos too, but they have pieces of potatoes instead of french fries. And they are very good IMO, especially if you add a lot of cheese or sour cream and it melts nicely, YUMMMM.

Isn't this a Taquiro? Or a Tacarito?

My bad, there are no stairs involved. And something else.

Burrito - a flour tortilla rolled or folded around a filling (as of meat, beans, or cheese) and usually baked

Taco - a usually fried tortilla that is folded or rolled and stuffed with a mixture (as of seasoned meat, cheese, and lettuce)

So is there really such thing as a soft taco? Or is just another name for a burrito?

In Octobre, 1993, the Mexican Parliament was called into special sessions due to civil unrest and popular demonstrations by citizens living in both the burrito and taco producing regions of Mexico. Unable to find a compromise autonomously, the regions were on the verge of civil war. The Mexican Government was forced into action despite their scheduled siesta.

The burrito producing region of the north had expanded past it's tradition fillings of beans, rice and cheese; now filling burritos with such things as ground meats, lettuce, tomato, and even salsa. All fillings previously found exclusively in tacos.

The taco region in southern Mexico also known as Chiapas, relying on its taco revenue was having a difficult time exporting their tasty corn treats through the northern region on to the U$A...the taco consuming capital of the world.

Unable to sway the northerners from using their traditional fillings, those in Chiapas found themselves at an economic disadvantage as the Americans bought burritos which were 3x the size of their tacos and were now available with all the same fillings. Civil war was imminent and a revolutionary group was born. The Zapatista.

The special session of parliament then decided to take the advice of the Mexican Science League and adopt a new experimental taco/burrito hybrid as of January 1st 1994 as the new national food.
The Mexican peoples as a whole had been taken back by thi sadvancement. Most just scratched their heads and asked quietly to themselves "How can a taco have a soft shell?" Through the Mexicans amazing ability to learn new skills, the entire country was soon making these alien soft tacos.
The soft taco was thus born through these agreements and through the legislation laid out in NAFTA (North American Free Taco Agreement) the future of the soft taco provides both types of Mexicans a means of economic gain.

Well, I hope that answers some of the questions everyone seems to have.

Nice story. I still think it's all form and not substance. Anyway, what's the difference between a fajita and a soft taco?

fajita is just steak/chicken with bell peppers and onions.

how come at chipotle I can get a fajita burrito...what is it? A fajita or a burrito?
