Is there any other food so poorly designed as the taco?

No, NYC delis have the highest meat to starch ratio

that looks SO good. back when I was at purdue... whole wheat bread + 1 slice of ham + 1 slice of cheese = 3.75. I felt robbed everytime I got one (too busy to choose, sometimes).

Gyros have this same problem, yet they are delicious and I find no reason to complain.

I love Gyros. I can't eat a full one. something about the meat gets to me. But damn they are tasty.

Also taco's may be designed poorly but they are fucking yummy! pink taco's rule!

You fail at life. Let me explain why:

1. You can't even eat a taco correctly
2. You think Mexicans invented the hard shell taco
3. You eat hard shell tacos

Anyone without severe brain damage would realize after 2 bites that you should tilt the taco upward as you eat it to keep all the goodness in.

Also, if you're going to incriminate Mexicans for a poor invention, you should at least judge them by the proper thing. Look up "street taco" to see what a taco is supposed to look like.

You really should stop judging food altogether.

That's why you ask for a bigger tortilla to wrap the meat in and call it a burrito.

Of its a hard one, you should have no problems finishing. If your having problems then you are doing it wrong.
