All my life I had heard about nixtamalization, whether I understood what it was all about was another matter.

As taco culture, I understand and study the set of norms around tacos. Where certain types of tacos are eaten, which ones are eaten in the morning and which ones are eaten at night, who eats them. As well as the use and social impact of tacos in Mexico and other parts of the world. Also understood as part of the taco culture are the ingredients, utensils and techniques used in the preparation.
