Cilantro? That stuff's gross.

Do you like chili? Cumin in most every kind of chili.

No, not cilantro.

Same thing with chili. I like it, but I have to make it myself and avoid getting chili powder with cumin in it. Same goes with tacos.

Do you not like it, or does it literally make you vomit? Ever been tested for an allergy?

That's too bad. I love cumin (a little goes a long way).

Either way, you definitely need to make yourself some cumin-free taco meat and rectify this burrito issue.

Literally makes me vomit, within 30 minutes or so.

Never been tested.

I've got a taco mix that doesn't contain cumin. Honestly, I don't even know the difference between a taco and a burrito. The wife and daughter love Chipotle and always get their burritos. Maybe I'll check it out.

A time machine because I haven't eaten one of those microwaved turds since 2003.

Looks like mostly it's about the size. A taco is intended to be a snack, a burrito is a meal.

I've seen the rice in their burritos. And beans. I hate beans.

I'll never "order" Mexican food again, because of the above. I might try making one myself.

Tacos, depending on the region of origin, can be very different. But the main difference between a burrito and a taco is that a corn tortilla is used for tacos and flour tortillas are used for burritos.

Tacos are generally much smaller in size compared to a burrito.

Please never cook Southwestern food ever again.

Thanks!

Dude, as many times as you've visited Los Angeles for work, you've never hit one of the hundreds (if not thousands) of taco stands all over the city? Never old school Mexican restaurants like El Cholo or Casa Vega or Frida, et al?

Chipotle isn't Mexican food. It's Amercianized Mexican food. That doesn't make is bad, it makes it not authentic.

And cilantro rules, whether it's on tacos, as a garnish to enchiladas and especially in guacamole.

Whether simmering in the summer or making soups in the winter, I'm a jar a week user of Goya Recaito.

Americanized > "authentic "

Not in my opinion.

Actually, it's not even close. I'll take authentic everyday of the week. It's SO much more flavorful.
