Shrimp taco

Shrimp tacos are a popular dish in the United States, and their origins can be traced back to the coastal regions of Mexico.

Today, shrimp tacos are typically served with a variety of toppings, such as cabbage, salsa, and sour cream. While the exact origins of shrimp tacos are unknown, they are believed to date back to the early 1900s.
