Our family is bananas about tacos and in particular we LOVE soft tacos.  Old El Paso has added preservative free Whole Grain Stand n Stuff Tortillas to their range of Mexican flavours and they are just as soft and delicious as we’ve all come to expect from this brand.  We couldn’t wait to try these and whipped up some tacos as soon as they arrived.  Ethan, in particular, loves these as he struggles with the mess of regular tacos, I love them because they are just so damn tasty!
