You must choose...

Do I get all three tacos or just one?
Same question, it does:change my decision, Im just curious.
I'm concerned about time. Specifically, would I have time to save all 3 tacos and ensure that the other options perish in that fire? Shouldn't waste the golden opportunity of having 3 shitheads in a burning room by allowing any margin for survival.
Jam the taco into the lock. Y'know, just to make sure.
Take one taco, the three stooges can fight over the last two while you get out.
I had the same question but it doesn't really matter
I’d save the plate
This is a horrible Sophie's choice. There are three tacos how can I pick only one of them
Scarf down one, double hold the other two, leaving the other hand free to navigate out of the room.
Luckily, they're all in a plate. Take the plate take them all. Bar the door on the way out.
Eat two of them right away and save the third one!
Save one taco, then eat it to deal with the existential dread of leaving the other two to die with the best the Fourth Reich has to offer.
Not a fan of tacos at all, but I'll save them for someone who is.
I'll probably give them to an immigrant or homeless person just to make it that little sweeter.
Not a fan of tacos at all
Do you live in a place with terrible Mexican food?
I live in a place with basically NO Mexican food.
ETA: I'm pretty much not familiar with Mexican cuisine.
I live in a place with basically NO Mexican food.
If you can call that living.
The only food you really need is Indian food.
Now this I can agree with.
I think saying this in America’s west / south west is a felony.
Maybe, but if even if you only take food from north America into consideration mexican food is still second place to Cajun/creole food..
Louisiana might agree with you, but the rest of North America would probably fight you on that. Nachos are a staple of every single sporting stadium here.
Maybe, I'm neither north American or a sports fan. But I'd rather have fried alligator or blackened catfish as far as fast food goes. And you genuinely can't beat a bowl of seafood ocra gumbo over heavily buttered cornbread. Nom nom nom.
Sounds a lot like Canada, where most people’s exposure to “Mexican food” is Taco Bell. Welcome to the club.
My distaste for Tacos comes down to the fact I don’t like crunchy foods that shatter, and especially so when they run the risk of being messy. I mean, I can handle a gooey messy burger just fine, but that’s because it doesn’t shatter when I bite into it. Tacos hit both those pain points. Give me Arroz con Pollo any day, I absolutely love it. And yes, the only place I can get this is from Rancho Chico south of the border in Washington state.
Which means it’s a no-go until America overthrows the current authoritarian ChristoFascist administration. Because they won’t allow themselves to be legitimately voted out of power. Soooo… possibly a decade or more until I can eat there again, assuming America doesn’t invade Canada in the meantime.
Kind of depends on where you are in Canada. If you’re in the middle or out east, shit is pretty bleak. Being closer to California (aka, former Mexican territory) helps a lot.
Further you get from Mexico, the harder it is to find the right ingredients and people who know what decent Mexican food tastes like.
The funny thing is, hard shells aren't authentic. That's an American thing. Soft tortillas are authentic, maybe cooked just a little on the stove.
I agree, hard tacos are a mess. I don't understand why they exist. The texture is fine, but it'd be better as something in the taco, not as the container.
You can make tacos at home too by the way. They're a very simple food, and you just use whatever protein you want and whatever additions you feel like. It's like a sandwich. You can't go wrong. You just use what you have/want.
Which country? You need some good Mexican food ASAP
I'm not comfortable sharing that info, but I've tried some Mexican food in my travels. Wasn't bad, but I doubt it was authentic.
Sadly that seems to describe most of Europe. I would love to try some proper Mexican food. But according to people who had it they haven't found a place here that makes good stuff.
I went to a Mexican restaurant in Terra Haute once.
They used Ragu as enchilada sauce.
This has killed my spirit a little.
Oh. Your. God.
I'm not sure if it's just a food crime or elevated all the way to a hate crime against your tongue.
London, UK. Been to a taco place, and a Burrito place or two. Underwhelmed.
Any fellow Londoners care to recommend a decent Mexican place? There must be some here.
Wahaca?
I don't think that anyone can just not like tacos at all, because they aren't just one thing. It's like a sandwich with bread, then whatever you want to put in it; beef, chicken, pork, shrimp, fish, or whatever protein you want and spices/vegitables/toppings. Maybe you don't like Taco Bell, but there's tacos out there you'd love.
For sure. I explained in another comment that I have very little exposure to Mexican. I don't dislike it I just don't love it, because I barely know it.
That's fair. It's pretty easy to do at home if you want to try it. You may need to mix your spices yourself if you can't find a spice mix, but I'm sure all the spices are available that you'd need. Just get some tortillas (soft, not hard), ground beef or chicken (or whatever else), tomatoes, lettuce, onions, and you'll be good to go. Maybe look it up online to find inspiration for what to add/what spices you need.
I'll have a look sometime, thanks.
You mean I get to watch them burn alive and eat tacos? Where's the wrong decision?
Eating tacos that were alone in a room with the world's likeliest rapists
But they wouldn't fuck a taco. Would they?
Dude, not even sofas are safe.
I'm starting to understand why vampires prefer to feed on virgins.
I'm just saying, if you were going to eat a sandwich taco, you would enjoy it more if you knew no one had fucked it.
They wouldn't fuck a sofa, would they?
Can only read this like "you wouldn't steal car"
None of them are half as interesting as that, but I am 100% confident that if two of them saw the other one roofie-ing a taco, they would instantly recognize the act and abide it.
Animals, roofied tacos aren't even satisfying.
If they played limp bizkid with the taco I would still take one for the team and eat it just so they could burn
You have the heart of a hero
I take one taco, and then go tell Mike Johnson that there are free tacos and where to get them.
You’d be saving so many lives in the long run, and would have a tasty snack while doing so.
I save JD (couchfucker) Vance so I can beat him to death with my bare hands.
He's got such a punchable face. But then again, they all do.
I was gonna save JD Vance and then sell him to Peter Thiel but I like yours better.
You can't sell things to their owner.
Damn, and here I was dreaming of more tacos and less walking nightmares.
You can always make more delicious tacos.
You can only beat a couchfucker to death with an ottoman just the one time.
I'm vegan. I pick the tacos
I am a semi functioning human with empathy, I also choose Tacos.
I'm not even hungry and I'm saving the tacos.
I don't like getting burned, I'm gonna go get a burrito somewhere
All 4 are edible but the tacos would taste the best
That's probably the vegan choice if you look at it big picture wise
Give it a second, the tacos will be better warmed up.
Well the tacoes are already in my hands because I was the one stating the fire when I saw who was in the room and I wanted some snacks while watching it burn down.
Do I have to act immediately? Pausing for a bit would put some nice color on those tacos.
Just admit it, you want to watch all 4 get a slight char don't you?
Only one would be improved by merely a slight char.
I hate cilantro...
Tap for spoiler
I pick the tacos
I'd take the taco, and I wouldn't even say thank you.
I would grab and shake JD violently to get his attention, then ask him to listen very carefully is there any tzatziki sauce ?
I would sacrifice the tacos too to avoid entering a room with those 3 assholes.
Can't take the risk. Better bar the door before the flames spread. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.
The tacos were covered in cilantro anyways...

I mean... It's literally genetic. The aldehydes in cilantro usually aren't strong enough for people to taste. But if you want to know what I taste when I eat cilantro, go crush a stink bug, it's the same chemical.
Apparently I can desensitize myself to it, and I want to. Certainly would open up a lot of options in foods I'm already a fan of (if you leave out the cilantro).
I'm weird. I can fully recognize the part that taste like soap. It isn't strong or overpowering, but I can recognize the taste. Still love cilantro for the rest of the flavors it gives. I guess kinda like how beets taste a bit like dirt to me, but I still like beets and beet juice. Or truffle oil having an "earthy" flavor to me.
I wish I could taste the other flavors. That's actually why I was considering desensitizing myself to it. I get the dirt and earthy, but I love both of those the same. I've been growing my palette, but it took me nearly two decades to find hops that I could stand to start desensitizing myself to that bitter.
It's a genetic thing, you don't need to fuck about.
I'm a fully brown person with fully brown ancestry and cilantro tastes like soap
I'm very allergic to cilantro and I'm still taking the tacos.
I don't like onions, but I could pick around them.
As much as I'd like to save the tacos, my hands would be too busy holding the doors closed keeping all 5 of use inside.
I remember replying on my census form that 2 people live here: myself and that burrito I need to throw out...
Ew is that cilantro?
Fuck it, let it all burn.
Edit: I might say thank you. To the fire.
I am the Pyrax, I speak for the fires, the fire says your welcome, and thank you for the tacos it helped clean the taste out.
Only one taco? Not fair.
Take the tacos al carbon and leave the pinche cabrónes to carbonize in the fire.
¡Órale!
Cilantro and dead animal? Gross. I’ll take that tho.
I'm severely intolerant to onions, but I'd still save the taco. I hate wasting food, there's always the possibility of making somebody else happy with it.
I'm pretty intolerant too but that doesn't change the fact that they're fucking delicious
They sure are, unfortunately.
Clearly, we must, for the good of mankind, choose the most intelligent of the four.
Tacos.
I choose the bear
Vance: gracias!
🤣🤣🤣
In all fairness, it's if a true Mexican taco (not some imitation from, say, the US or Europe) I would save that no matter what the other three were.
With the image as-is, you could replace that taco with a dead rat and I would still save that rat over the rest
You could replace the taco with the worst incurable disease and I'd still pick that.
Fo science!
Nobody said you couldn't save the tacos de carne asada for later
the tacos. the other three are why I started the fire... allegedly.
I know you didn't do it. You were with me the whole time playing video games and eating more tacos!
Cold blooded animals like the warmth
I'll save the tacos
NGL I kind of don't like cilantro onion tacos, like I gotta figure out what to do with this now. Find a homeless person? idk.
Pick the soap leaf off and feed it to them, then leave with the rest of the tacos
If I'm within saving distance, I am within pushing down distance and buddy I can push pretty good.
After a long and hard decision I decided not to decide. But stop for lunch. Those tacos look delicious. Don't mind if I do!
Sadly, I could only muster the courage and strength to save one out of three tacos, your honor.
I hate corn tortillas so i would save the tacos.
Ensure the other 3 are dead before leaving and save the burrito.
Tacos are the GOAT, and reason enough, on their own, to justify immigration in the US.
Taco's the only one that won't try to eat me
I think I’ll go get some tacos for lunch and mull this one over…
All I'm saying is I'm pretty hungry. Ok?
It may be an unpopular opinion, but I would save the tacos.
There'd have to be an incredible person on that list for me to not save tacos for the world.
I like mine extra crispy... No, not the tacos
What if the taco is undercooked?!
Give it a minute
Money's paw strikes again!
Honestly, those look like tacos someone I know may enjoy... I'd save them real hard... maybe wrap em in some foil or something...
I choose none. That cow looks a little too late to be saving..
To make this more plausible, let's assume they're all tied to chairs. I'd let the tacos be tacos and use the time to check that they're all tied up very well.
That is not fair ...
Can't i eat taco's and save the one i want to 'give a knee'at every whimm i got for the rest of the 4 years?
Or is that to cruel for the taco?
None of the above, I'd add petrol
...you wouldn't save the tacos? Not even to feed a hungry neighbor?
Tacos give me the shits
Musk. HEAR ME OUT…..
Spoiler
The tacos are the logical choice here, obviously. But if I save the rich fuck then he owes me big time. I want 5 billion dollars, the rest he gives to immigration and housing charities. Then he gets deported back to Africa in the middle of the Sahara desert with only the clothes on his back, a bag of peanuts, and a bottle of Gatorade (c’mon I’m not heartless enough for him to starve or die of thirst….immediately).
He’ll weasel out of it and I’ll probably end up broke because of litigation. I don’t trust Musk.
I trust tacos.
IMO, the end of the post's title should be "ketchup or mayo ?"
Uhh, what? Do you put ketchup or mayo on your tacos?
XD fair enough ! Tbh I was just trying to see if this could be made into a joke. I've never had a proper taco (except maybe once, but I was drunk as hell and it was a very poorly made imitation that I wouldn't call a taco) so I wouldn't know what to eat it with. Please enlighten me, what kind of sauce do people put on tacos (if any)?
Stuff the tacos down as fast as possible then leave on my own.
Hmm I kneecap all three of them, eat the salad and then safe myself. Easy.
Tacos = salad?
I like the way you think, friend.
Lol those are indeed tacos I guess haha
That looks like cilantro on the tacos, so I'll save...the painting behind Vance. I'm sure he'd thank me for that.
Mmm a taco!
Tacos !
eh...
If i choose the taco, i will be guilt of not saving one of the 3 people. Thats why i do nothing, sacrificing the taco, but keeping me innocent
The trolley is way more interesting when you want to kill the person on the track, but dont want to be known as the one who caused their death
You could not possibly be guilty from making the world a better place, so at least have delicious taco to celebrate.
News can twist it as if i did something wrong, claiming i am guilty of their death, even though its legal
I also dont like tacos
I like how the portraits try to show them in a good light. Brings home the message about how most people vote.
Trump's official photo looks like an outtake photo for an 80s villain.
Easy question, I put the fire 🫢
free 5 minute trial of hell before they actually go there
How is this even a question?
Then I go back to steal the wallets to sell them on ebay?
I mean I want the pleasure of watching JV Dunce lose in 4 years, but on the other hand… tacos.
Musk, he'd pay me
He'd never actually do that, just empty promise
He's autistic right? He'd pay me.
Being so rich that you can’t relate to anyone else in the world doesn’t make you autistic. It just makes you a piece of shit.
Being autistic makes you autistic. I'm autistic so I relate to autistics. He'd pay me.
Autistic people can lie
This idiot openly and publicly tried to buy the government. He doesn't hide it, he thinks it's the most normal thing. The politicians there don't get paid by taxes, it's quite obvious right? So why would he have to lie about it.
He was wrong, most people need to hear lies.
Everyone either is unaware that US politicians are only paid 1% by taxes or don't know what that means.
Whatever 🤷🏻♂️
Autistics often don't see the point of lying
Ah right, he would never lie. Not the best Quake, Diablo 4 and PoE player in the world. He would never lie.
He'll promise to buy you a horse
Of course trump. We've had our share of rotten politicians now it's america's turn.
