Taco Lover's of the World Unite!

i just realized all my guy friends must be laughing at the title of this blog and for that i will say shame on them.ANYWAYS! seriously though..i love tacos. I am never NOT in the mood for one. They're ingenius!
So simple! just a corn tortilla filled with the simplest ingredients and you can spice em up in a variety of ways..
turkey tacos,chicken tacos,shrimp,pork,sirloin,veggie meet,tuna,fishh...the lst goes on.
Add some pico de gallo, cilantro,asian chili sauce,Tabasco...the possibilites are endless. Believe it or not though i don't own a taco plate and a friend of mine just recently pointed that out. I usually overstuff mine and they spill out all over my plate which i then end up eating "morrocan style" byt he time i'm done.
And to think all the years my father was alive he neevr owned one either. My dad LOVED tacos. My mom would make her soft shell tacos and i swear i remember putting 12 of them on a plate and then on a tray with chipotle peppers and Tabasco and jalapenos,etc. My dad used to put different hot sauces on each one and i guess like daughter like father (or the other way around? i forget how it goes...LOL)...
So i thought i would share some of the ones my friends have suggested to me.
BELOW...someone so kindly invented the Taco StandUP
Or the oh-so cleverely named Taco Proper

i'm not sure i could keep a straight face with the Tito Chihuahua taco holder at Overstock.com for $27.99

or there's the Taco Solution holder but that would limit me to just two tacos..which probably is a good thing


Or for the more simple and elegant..go for the Walter Drake taco holder

or for the minimalist...the basic taco rack

or for the Southwest-obsessed..http://www.sageceramicgifts.com/Frames/Taco%20Shell%20%20Salsa%20Set.htm

If you know of any other holders that the rest of the world must see please feel free to leave a link to them!
