list of things that are like tacos

tacos are a category of food that are relatively small in size and are served on a open platform of thin carbohydrate filled material. things that make you want to sleep after eating or are sealed off when served are not tacos (see instead: burritos, pizza)

not tacos:

  • hot dogs - not thin enough
  • doner kebab - too heavy

the taco-like sushis are called temaki (literal translation: hand rolls).  手巻き
there are also onigiri おにぎり (like the emoji) - which is rice, usually with something inside, wrapped with seaweed. usually triangular. or they are round, if the onigiri-maker is not skilled enough. :)

Another type of bao-like food is Rou Jia Mo (肉夹馍), popular in the north of China.
