It is a &#8220;sweaty <em>taco<\/em>&#8220;. Small, the size of a number 14 <em>tortilla<\/em> (two or three bites), filled almost always with potato, bean or <em>chicharr\u00f3n<\/em> -the essential triumvirate of the <em>taco<\/em> homeland-, although sometimes <em>adobo<\/em>, <em>pastor<\/em>, chicken with <em>mole<\/em> or whatever the stew of the day may be, appears. Traveling, bicycle, sidewalk and urban <em>taco<\/em>, the most enduring of all, edible from the early morning until the basket is emptied in the afternoon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A convenient craving and quick relief for students, office workers and passers-by in a hurry. Two green sauces: the raw one with avocado that isn&#8217;t spicy (it is spicy) and the cooked one with habanero that is spicy (it is very spicy). We eat it standing up, napkin under the plate, with slippery fingers and glossy lips from the grease that keeps them warm and soft all day long. The <em>taco de canasta<\/em> -or &#8220;sweaty <em>taco<\/em>&#8220;-, perhaps the first <em>taco<\/em> to be sold in Mexico City, is the father of Mexican street <em>tacos<\/em>.
