===El Paso Taco shells - circa November 2015=== | |||
Around 2015 El Paso reduced the gross weight of the Taco shell pictured to such an extent that they fall apart when handled and no longer have any crunch as they are so thin - the packaging probably weighs more than the contents now. Well maybe not but it does annoy me how food manufacturers attempt to ''improve'' products when really all they are doing is trying to increase the bottom line. Avoid, avoid, avoid! The Discovery trays are much better, and cheaper though I've not seen them around lately and all on-line stockists show them as no longer available. [[Contact the Editor|Drop me an email]] if you find any suppliers so I can put them on this page. | |||
