[TACO] For centuries, the taco has been the go-to food for snackers and munchers. So simple, yet so complex, the taco can be the perfect cure for the munchies for several reasons. On Wednesday, April 20, you’re invited to cure your own munchies at our first ever 4/20 Taco Tour! Three local taco joints will participate in The Public’s 4/20 Tour—Deep South Taco, Cantina Loco, and Lloyd Taco Factory. The idea is quite simple: Eat tacos, win prizes. We’ve gathered $1,000 in prizes from three local head shops—Head Space, Terrapin Station, and Headin’ to Hertel—to giveaway to our taco loving readers. Participants don’t need to sign up, but folks are encouraged to visit each establishment and send us photos of your tacos. Those who send us a photo using the hashtag #ThePublicTacoTour of at least one taco from each spot are automatically entered to win some smokin’ swag. (Pro-tip, make sure your Instagram and/or Twitter are not set on private, at least for this very special Taco event-extravaganza). See you all on 4/20. 

1: You can eat a single taco or three tacos or five tacos because they’re usually not that big.

2: They’re a hand-food!

3: A taco is a blank canvas. You can fill it with pork, chicken, beans, potatoes, fish—pretty much anything edible. Tacos inspire creativity. 

4: Tacos can be very spicy and it’s been scientifically proven that spicy food can induce a natural high.

5: They’re usually very colorful and pretty to look at.
