So, today I found out that Taquitos (aka rolled tacos, but don't call them that) were invented here. in San Diego. More specifically, at El Indio [
story] I've eaten there a coupla times, but I've never gotten taquitos. I'm more of an enchilada and chips n salsa guy. But hey, if they were invented there, I should at least try them, right?
And wow. The Caesar Salad was invented just on the other side of the border, in Tijuana? Shit, I never woulda guessed that either. I just thought Tijuana was the place to go for people under 21 to drink legally.
So everybody, wish your friendly neighborhood Taquito a happy 65th birthday... and then scarf that puppy down. Taquitos are
goooooood.

Mmm, taquitos! I used to be totally hooked on the ones from Albertos, until I got pregnant with my son. Then I just couldn't stand the smell. It's never been the same since. *sigh*

I'm sorry. I'm a rolled taco girl. Not taquito. I mean, I'll say taquito from time to time, especially if I'm buying a box of Delimex at the store. But if I order it from a shack where they yell HAT SASS! out the window and the beans are so good, you just want to bathe in them, I'm sorry...it's rolled tacos.
