 Taco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A popular Americanized variation of the taco that does not use a crisp tortilla shell is the breakfast taco, consisting of a soft flour tortilla filled with some combination of traditional breakfast foods, such as eggs, bacon, fried potatoes, sausage, chorizo, or migas.
A taco is a traditional Mexican dish comprising a rolled or folded, pliable tortilla (of either maize or wheat flour) filled with meat (generally grilled beef or pork), chili-based salsa, guacamole, and garnishes such as pico de gallo or cilantro.
Here the main ingredient is spiced pork, which is cut in slivers, from a loaf of meat standing on a vertical spit in front of an open flame; the method is similar to that used to prepare Döner kebabs and gyros in the Mediterranean.

 Wrap It Up: A Guide to Mexican Street Tacos (Part One of Two) - MEXICAN COOKING - COCINA MEXICANA -
Many types of tacos, such as the grilled norteño beef tacos, are eaten with grilled cebollitas, or green onions.
The filling for these tacos is traditionally prepared by wrapping sheep, lamb or goat meat in maguey leaf linings, called pencas, placing it over a pan to catch the juices which help steam the meat, and burying it in a fire pit in the ground, something like an underground oven.
Whether the taco filling is fried, grilled or steamed depends on the kind of filling being used, with each stand having its specialty.

While it may well be a bonanza for Taco Bell tomato-pickers, it is a disaster for the people who provide McDonald's and other restaurants with all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, and sesame seed buns.
There are a lot of substitutes for Taco Bell, and Taco Bell consumers—who usually have low incomes—are very price-sensitive (in econo-speak, the demand curve for fast food is highly elastic).
Among other things, the CIW is calling for a one-cent per pound increase in employee wages, arguing that large corporations like Taco Bell and McDonald's are responsible for the conditions of their workers.
