Just like pizza, the traditional taco can be made with a variety of fillings, including beef, chicken, seafood, vegetables and cheese, allowing for great versatility and variety. Also like pizza, a taco is generally eaten without utensils (other than a generous supply of heavy-duty napkins) and is often accompanied by garnishes such as salsa, avocado, guacamole, cilantro, tomatoes, minced meat, onions and lettuce.

So why not mix the two? Why not indeed, you ask rather intelligently.
