Tacos originated in Mexico and usually consist of meat and/or vegetables chopped and wrapped in a tortilla (either corn or flour). Sometimes the tortilla is fried crisp in a fold so the chopped meat and veggies are held in the middle. Sometimes they stay soft and the meat and veggies are wrapped in the soft tortilla.
