Carnitas Taco

A taco is a traditional Mexican dish consisting of a small, hand-sized corn or wheat tortilla. This tortilla is folded around a filling, which can vary widely to include meats, seafood, beans, vegetables, or cheese. Tacos are often garnished with condiments like salsa, guacamole, or sour cream, and fresh vegetables such as lettuce or onion, and are typically eaten by hand. They are a common form of Mexican street food that has gained global recognition.
