― NOT FUNNY NEEDS MORE CGI (jjjusten), Wednesday, 11 August 2010 23:59 (fifteen years ago)

Pizza. As much as I love tacos, and man, I LOVE tacos, the thought of pizza for dinner can carry me through many a difficult day.

― Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Thursday, 12 August 2010 00:01 (fifteen years ago)

what if it's british pizza, tho

― iatee, Thursday, 12 August 2010 00:06 (fifteen years ago)

That is not one of the options.

― Sauvignon Blanc Mange (B.L.A.M.), Thursday, 12 August 2010 00:08 (fifteen years ago)

tacos are just about the greatest thing on the planet. still voting pizza.

Taco Pizza: Got a craving for something south of the border? The Taco Pizza is the only pizza that starts with a spicy taco sauce and is topped with beef, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar, and mozzarella cheese to create a unique flavor guaranteed to satisfy your craving.

love that each round consistently the crappest food goes through to the next round. gg ilx

― HOOS' THE BOSS (ken c), Thursday, 12 August 2010 00:56 (fifteen years ago)

So easy - tacos.

pizza

― a hoy hoy, Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:34 (fifteen years ago)

tacos are too messy to have made it anywhere past the second round imo.

Couldn't decide between pizza and soup in the last round so didn't vote. But now the choice is easy. Sorry, tacos.

― Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:49 (fifteen years ago)

if your tacos are messy you're probably overstuffing them imo

― ciderpress, Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:52 (fifteen years ago)

With tacos, less is more.

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:53 (fifteen years ago)

With pizza too, tbh.

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:53 (fifteen years ago)

though hard shell tacos are kinda lame regardless, i've been assuming soft shell the whole way through

― ciderpress, Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:53 (fifteen years ago)

Johnny Fever is OTM there!

― BLACK METAL IST KRIIIIIIIEEEEGGGGGGGGGGGG (acoleuthic), Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:55 (fifteen years ago)

Flour tortillas are good and essential for many foods, but tacos pretty much always have to be crispy corn tortillas for proper enjoyment.

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:55 (fifteen years ago)

Is it Tacos or KOALA TACOS??

― Guernsey Shore (King Boy Pato), Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:56 (fifteen years ago)

I actually had hard shell tacos for the first time in my life last weekend. They weren't too bad at the place I got them, but yes, soft is definitely better.

― r.i.p. soup (kkvgz), Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:56 (fifteen years ago)

I'll concede the corn thing, but will stand by flour tortillas for fish tacos (although I don't even eat meat anymore, so what's the point).

― r.i.p. soup (kkvgz), Thursday, 12 August 2010 01:57 (fifteen years ago)

wtf, NO

corn - soft - double layer - THIS IS THE LAW

Wait, were cheeseburgers even in this poll, to start?

― r.i.p. soup (kkvgz), Thursday, 12 August 2010 09:29 (fifteen years ago)

Hamburgers were, but they were sacrificed early on.

― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 12 August 2010 09:58 (fifteen years ago)

― stuckey's snackhouse (get bent), Thursday, 12 August 2010 10:08 (fifteen years ago)

when both are great, they're amazing. but i can usually deal with bad pizza, where bad tacos make me not want to live.

― stuckey's snackhouse (get bent), Thursday, 12 August 2010 10:09 (fifteen years ago)

what if it's british pizza, tho

You can put anything on a British pizza, so pizza wins.

― Les centimètres énigmatiques (snoball), Thursday, 12 August 2010 10:10 (fifteen years ago)

british pizza (mmm. kind of) vs british taco (fucking hell)

I know Brits don't have good mexican, but I swear that, if you guys vote tacos out of good faith and I also win the lottery this weekend, I will buy you all tickets to Southern California to enjoy them in their homeland.

― cozen, Thursday, 12 August 2010 11:02 (fifteen years ago)

Some of the worst pizza I ever had in London, I had there.

Also, they have a very curious definition of "vegetarian".

(There is no definition in the world, of vegetarianism that includes ham-bacon-some-gross-pork-product as the other not-meat meat. Ugh.)

― all your life is channel 13, Sesame Street, what does it mean? (Masonic Boom), Thursday, 12 August 2010 11:05 (fifteen years ago)

You may be the lone voice of protest (admittedly, I'm looking for three kinds of pig when I'm there).

They have a branch in Soho (the original; the one pictured is at the base of the block of flats where I used to live) in the thick of Insensitive Media Arse-land. Phone wankery objection signs ought to happen more often, imo.

This is all going to be over soon, and will fade like any bad dream. (PS, vote tacos!)

― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 14 August 2010 18:44 (fifteen years ago)

You know, I kind of like pizza (lol Britishes and how they can't get proper pizza) and I kind of like tacos (lol Britishes and how they can't get proper tacos). But I don't really care about either of them.

PS I have spent a decent length of time in both Italy and Mexico so draw your own conclusions.

― Hey Jabulani! Pope of four four two. (aldo), Saturday, 14 August 2010 19:56 (fifteen years ago)

today i had two tacos (one w black beans, one with refried on corn tortillas) and a sweet potato tamal and an enchilada (this was a combo plate, was hella feelin it)

Oh that is some bullcrap results there.

But I've been out on the town and had three fish tacos and two al pastor, so it's all good.

― My totem animal is a hamburger. (WmC), Sunday, 15 August 2010 00:22 (fifteen years ago)

This is the right result and to celebrate, I will be having leftover pizza for breakfast.

Thanks! Putting it together and updating was a fun/easy way to break up a 3-week hell of work deadlines. Anticlimactic ending, but the fun was in the travelling, not the arrival.

― My totem animal is a hamburger. (WmC), Sunday, 15 August 2010 20:48 (fifteen years ago)

Well quite. One day I'll sift through the threads and who knows learn something valuable - plenty of handy tips and interesting perspectives and people who unaccountably hate tomatoes.

Oh, and one day fairly soon I will be making the 8-Headed Tummy Hydra
