Make everyday Taco Tuesday with these 50 recipes
Americans eat more than 4.5 billion tacos each year, a stunning testament to the dish's popularity that has been growing since the early 20th century. The hard-shell taco was invented in 1947, outlasting the freshness of corn tortillas and allowing for mass production. By 1954, a small taco stand called Taco Tia was founded; eight years later, he opened the first Taco Bell in Downey, California.
