Are tacos better in Mexico?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

South-Central Mexico is the region where tacos were first created by the Aztec people some 700 years ago. When Spain conquered Mexico, some ingredients changed, but tacos have kept most of the original recipe: corn or wheat tortillas wrapped around a meat stew.

It is worth noting tacos served on food chains outside of Mexico have nothing to do with the original dish: the hard shell used in chains like Taco Bell are commonly known as "tostadas" in Mexico.

What type of food does Ireland eat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

From what I can recall, the potato was making a big impression in Ireland as the seventeenth century unfolded. It came to the greater population by being inadvertently washed to shore with other salvage from the ill-fated Spanish armada of 1588 and utilized accordingly. It was a staple food for the Spanish navy, who themselves had brought it to Spain from their new territories in South America. Potatoes were a welcome change from the more unsavory 'pottage' which had been the only choice of meal for the poor before this time. A diet of meat would have been the privilege of the wealthy

although many people risked their necks in poaching activities. If you happened to live on the coast there were opportunities to fish for your supper.

What does a whelk look like?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hope this helps....

Whelk or welk is a common name used for some sea snails. The word is applied to various species within several unrelated groups of medium-sized to large marine gastropod molluscs. Whelks are mostly found in temperate and tropical waters, and the majority of them have historically been used by humans for food.

The species referred to using this common name vary from one part of the English-speaking world to another:

  • In the United States, whelk refers to several large edible species in the genera Busycon and Busycotypus within the family Melongenidae. These are sometimes called Busycon whelks. In addition, the unrelated invasive murex Rapana venosa is referred to as the Veined rapa whelk or Asian rapa whelk.
  • British Isles, Belgium and Netherlands. The word whelk probably originated around 1400 in Middle English as wioloc or wiluc. In the British Isles, Belgium and the Netherlands, the word is applied to a number of species in the family Buccinidae, especially to Buccinum undatum, an edible European and Northern Atlantic species.
  • In Scotland, the word "whelk" is also used for the periwinkle (Littorina littorea). [1]
  • West Indies. In the English-speaking islands of the West Indies, the word whelks or wilks (the word is both singular and plural) is applied to a large edible top shell, Cittarium pica, also known as the magpie or West Indian top shell.
  • In Australia and New Zealand, species of the genus Cabestana are called predatory whelks.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of cannibalism?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, the advantages of cannibalism can be summarized in one point: The person you are eating is presumably supplying your body with food.

The disadvantages, however, have led to the downfall of entire peoples!

When eating a being of the same species, you are consuming everything that comes with them; pathogens and all!

In other words, you are putting into your body any diseases that your meal may have had, and as they are of the same species, these diseases will also thrive in you!
