First time i ever had it was up in Iowa and they called it a walking
taco. They'd lay a bag of fritos on the counter, bang it with the side
of a fist a couple time, add a scoop of taco meat, some shredded cheese,
lettuce, salsa, sour cream and hand it to you with a spork to eat it with.

And you could indeed eat it while walking around, unlike the traditional
crunchy taco (the kind where the bottom drops out after the first bite?).
