Tacos Aren't The Same South Of The Border
By FELECIA FENBERG (Daily Kansas Society Editor)
Until last week I thought my knowledge of Mexican dishes was good. But a trip to Mexico during spring vacation taught me that what we call Mexican food is sometimes far from the real stuff.
Take the day Janie (Jane Pecinovsky, Kansas City, Mo. junior) and I tried tacos. We had been invited to dinner by two students from the University of Mexico, and when they asked us if we liked tacos, our mouths began to water as we thought of the crusty shells filled with ground beef and hot sauce we had tasted at home.
We went to a small restaurant where the mariachis (tavern musicians), nearly drowned out our conversation, and the boys ordered.
When the meal arrived we thought there had been a mistake. First came a basket of tortillas, not crisp, but soft and pliable like pancakes. Then followed a plate of lime colored lumpy mush that was supposedly mashed avocado, a bowl of stewed tomatoes with small pods that turned out to be the hottest chili ever to touch our tongues, and a plate of pork cut into large chunks.
While we looked at each other bewildered, the boys took the tortillas, put several pieces of meat on them, poured the avacado over that, topped it with chili, rolled it, and sank their teeth into it while assuming a look of perfect contentment.
Janie and I tried to imitate them, but were less successful.

The boys obligingly fixed us a taco, and the first bite found us screaming for "aqua." We struggled to finish it, and Janie quit. I settled for a plain tortilla the second time.

The boys began fixing double tacos, and the ingredients disappeared fast. They ordered more, repeating all the while, "This is life." After eight apiece, they stopped and noticed that our plates were clear.
