How many of you have tried these? Also comes in Ranch and Chili Lime

>Are you out of your fucking mind?

No, why? I honestly don't understand why anyone would pay several dollars for a box of those when they could fry up 50 cents worth of tortillas and have a better product.

Are you implying that deep frying is difficult or complicated and therefore it makes sense to buy them?

This kind of grandstanding is baffling to me. Who, exactly, are you trying to impress? Do you really think behaving like a faggot is going to change anyone's mind?

We get it, you deep fry.

Who the FUCK has a deep fryer in their kitchen?

If you're eating so much fried food that you feel the need to take up counter space with a deep fryer then you're eating too much fucking fried food.

They're shit. Get the El Paso Stand N Stuff ranch and nacho shells instead. Kroger's shitty attempt at these flavored shells are way too brittle and crumble the minute you pick them up or put something in them. And they get extremely soggy from meat grease. El Paso's version is just simply god tier. Thank me later.

All hard shell tacos are disgusting

Haven't tried the Nacho cheese, but the ranch ones were good.

Your opinion. I don't mind hard or soft. Some days I even prefer one over the other.

nah but you can show me your leg stump when you have it removed

This is shit coming full circle in a bizarre way. Doritos were created by a guy walking around the Southwest wondering if he could make a corn chip taste like a taco. Now this is a taco that tastes like corn chips that taste like tacos.

That's just fucked up.

>Who the FUCK has a deep fryer in their kitchen?

I do. They're inexpensive and super useful.

>>counter space
I have plenty of that.

>Who, exactly, are you trying to impress?
Nobody. I'm trying to ask people why they find the idea of frying at home to be difficult or impractical. Once they tell me why then I hope to teach them how to circumvent that problem. But we aren't getting anywhere because nobody is explaining why they are unwilling to do their own deep frying.

I've tried the Old El Paso nacho cheese ones and I'd say it depends on the box. They can be dam good but they can also be terrible.

>why they are unwilling to do their own deep frying
I don't know why buying taco shells implies a person is unwilling to deep fry. Shitty correlation.

Assuming you were willing to fry them, why buy them? What would be the benefit to offset the increased price and lack of freshness?

Are you the same guy who is suggesting buying tortillas and deep frying them? Why would you buy tortillas when you could hire a personal cook to make them for you? If you don't have the disposable income to hire a personal cook, then I feel bad for you. You clearly don't have the drive and ability to be successful. Do you have an irrational fear of failure? Quit being so poor, you're disgusting me.

But store bought hard shell tacos are disgusting

kroger house brand is the shit

>Thinking store bought tortillas are fresh
Makes me lol, if you aren't going to a tortilleria for tortillas, it's not fresh.

Thats why I recommend getting a flatev. It allows you to make FRESH tortillas at home in seconds without the need to seek out a local authentic tortilleria

...in your opinion. List some things you like. I'm sure someone will come along and tell you it's disgusting. I won't because I'm not a child.

Yea you're not a child, you're a beta male that's too scarred about offending someone so you dont voice your opinion and in return you bring nothing to the conversation except to flaunt how poltically correct you are

I'm in Canada. We have no Mexicans here. I can't get regular corn tortillas. I can get Old El Paso shells and flour tortillas of various sizes (which are sold as "wraps").

Canada is shit if you like Mexican food.

>Are you the same guy who is suggesting buying tortillas and deep frying them?
Yes.

>Why would you buy tortillas when you could hire a personal cook to make them for you?
Because that would cost more money, and the goal here is saving money.

I run two sucessfull businesses. I could easily afford a personal cook if I wanted to, but I don't because I enjoy cooking. It's a pleasurable hobby. What does any of this "personal cook" stuff have to do with the fact that buying a pack of tortillas and frying them yourself results in taco shells that are both cheaper and tastier than getting pre-made ones? It seems like you're trying to derail the conversation with a strawman but somehow managed to miss the point entirely.

>Makes me lol, if you aren't going to a tortilleria for tortillas, it's not fresh.

My local supermarket chain (HEB) makes tortillas fresh in the store every day. I guess you'd say that they have a tortillaria in the store?

He runs not one, but TWO, successful businesses and spends his free time making posts on Veeky Forums about how deep frying store-bought tortillas is superior to buying hard tacos.

OK, OK, so it's a pleasurable hobby. Why aren't you making your own tortillas then? It's cheaper. It's masa and water. You can get a bag of masa for like $3 and it will make hundreds.

Do you go out and buy fresh tortillas every time you want to eat them?

Thats the antithesis of convenient,but with the flatev you get fresh tortillas at home

Take a look youtu.be/stTzLmoStsU

>Thats the antithesis of convenient
He has two successful businesses to run which gives him time to post on Veeky Forums and make extra runs to the store.

Her spanishing-up the word "tortilla" triggers me.

I stock these at Kroger. The boxes they ship I'm get thrown around and abused, so I wouldn't be surprised if half the shells get broken. Just do yourself a favor, buy soft tacos, homemade, or anywhere else besides the taco aisle at Kroger. Night crew stocks all dry goods and the main isles, and we tend to throw shit around a lot since no customers in store

>video doesn't show how the tortillas are removed from the machine
>it's just a fucking keurig for tortillas

What a gay load of shit, please leave shill

>not grinding homemade nixtamalized corn and making your own tortillas

SHIGGY!

>Do you go out and buy fresh tortillas every time you want to eat them?

Yes. The store is on the way home from work. It's no hassle at all to swing by and grab some.

>flatev
Seems neat, but I don't support the idea of the pre-packed dough capsules. Too expensive, too much waste, and it doesn't let me fine-tune the dough. If I'm going to spend that kind of effort I'm going to do it the old-school way with a comal.

>time to post on Veeky Forums
Well sure. When you're managing things properly you often have free time. I spent a few hours this morning checking in why my staff, calling back customers, etc. Now that I'm done with that I'm largely free unless a problem crops up or someone calls needing immediate assistance.

>>extra runs to the store
who said anything about extra runs to the store? All I'm recommending is frying your own tortillas to make taco shells. I said nothing about making extra store runs.

>Thats the antithesis of convenient,but with the flatev you get fresh tortillas at home

Why aren't you making your own fucking tortillas you shitlord? You are LITERALLY enabling ConAgra.

No Krogers where I live. But if its what I remember as a kid, it's trash.

As stated in the video, it cuts DOWN on food waste because you only make what you eat

The chili lime is GOAT

These never taste good, I would rather just eat a flaccid taco shell that resort to premade hard.

Also I am an obese and those premade shells can never hold the amount of filling I need to be satisfied without cracking.

>$475 for this shit

kill yourself

Who the fuck is going to fry tortillas every time they want tacos? That would be like making your own puff pastry every time you need it.

>Too poor for oven fresh TORTILLAS

fucking this

>muh authentic mexican

>fdesh tordtillas

Get fucked.

If it's so simple then what the fuck do I need that machine for?

Or you could just buy tortillas to have them around whenever you want to make tacos or enchiladas or whatever. They also freeze very well so you could just stick some in the freezer if you feel compelled to always have some on hand and don't use them regularly.

I'm sorry, but it sounds like you have never enjoyed the taste of a fresh, warm tortilla with your meals. If you have, you would understand the world of difference it makes experiencing Latino cuisine.

It might sound convenient to store them around for a long time, but do you wonder why they do not spoil quickly? It is because they are littered with harmful additives to make them last longer. This is a problem that does not plague the flatev and it's on demand flavored tortillas

I do enjoy fresh, warm tortillas. I always get mine fresh, I was just offering a solution for people who prefer not to make their own or think it's too hard to go to the store and get freshly made tortillas.

Ok
