Have you ever tried a fresh tortilla before? When it comes to tacos and Mexican food in general, it's all about the tortilla. We make our own the way it has been done in Mexico for millennia - with fresh nixtamalized corn masa dough - the way tortilla should taste. If you buy yours off the shelves, most likely you are yet to try it.
