taco shells
Crispy Mexican holders
Taco shells are the crispy, U-shaped corn tortillas used to hold taco fillings.
They're fried or baked into their curved form, ready to be stuffed with meat, cheese, lettuce, and other ingredients.
Soft tortillas folded around fillings are technically tacos too, but taco shells specifically means the hard, preformed version: a box of taco shells.
