> Hey! I wasn't aware that there was such a thing as "soft tacos". ???. "Tacos" are folded tortillas that are fried. That makes them hard, doesn't it? I'd figure "soft tacos" are simply unfried flour/corn tortillas. When you put meat, cheese, beans, lettuce etc. into the tortilla and then bake it, it becomes a Burrito. If you instead take the burrito and fry it, it becomes a Chimichanga. I thought it was all so simple, Sam. And now you just went and made it all complicated. I just...I just...arg...Ahhhhhhhhhhk!

Around here, a burrito is almost exclusively wrapped in a flour tortilla and a soft taco in a corn tortilla (with the corn tortilla folded). Kinda like the difference between taquitos (corn tortilla) and flautas (flour tortilla). That's how I differentiate between the two.
