Living in California for 35 years, I’m a big fan of Mexican foodways, and tacos have always been one of my favorite dishes. In fact, tacos have a rich and flavorful history that dates back to ancient Mexico, long before Spanish colonization. The word “taco” is believed to have originated from Mexican silver miners in the 18th century, who used the term to describe paper-wrapped gunpowder charges—similar in shape to the modern taco. However, Indigenous peoples were eating tortillas filled with beans and squash (part of the Three Sisters) long before then. Tacos evolved over time as new ingredients were introduced through Spanish influence. Today, tacos are a global phenomenon, embraced in countless variations—from traditional street tacos to creative plant-based versions—while still honoring their roots as a practical, hand-held meal that brings people together. I am not a true expert in Mexican foodways, so do go check out my colleague Alice in Foodieland inspirational site.
