Beef Taco Filling

I was pleasantly surprised!! Previously tried Starkist's product. It has no texture and looked like baby food. The Hereford Taco Filling, on the other hand, is crumbly and the seasoning was perfect. I wanted more heat so I just put a few shakes of Sriracha. I made 2 tacos for my lunch today and they were delicious!! I love this product and have placed a Subscribe & Save order. Thank you for this product. I love tacos and now I can have them whenever I want them!!!!!!

coming out of the package, the taco filling is very unappetizing. But, after breaking up with a fork, and heating up, it looks more like taco filling is supposed to look. While it it tastes pretty good, I was surprised that it was on the mild side. So, I fixed that by adding about a half a package of taco filling to it. But what I don't understand, Hereford cattle were bred in England, and do very well in the midwestern United States. Yet, this comes from Argentina. And because of this, and the supplier in Chicago, the 2 year of sustainable shelf life, is closer to 18 months. Why can't a company in the US produce the same thing?

So far, my favorite Hereford product. Not too spicy and not too plain. Works great without all the time preparing taco filling myself. Once heated, it does need to be stirred well to look like taco filling. It's pretty compressed in the pack but is great once broken up. A definite plus when wanting tacos or nachos quickly.

I add some refried beans and we have ready made tacos. So easy and they taste good!

I got this because I love to have things on hand to just whip up a quick snack or meal. These are . . . weird. The packaging is fine, but you kind of squeeze the meat out like you do your toothpaste out of a tube, and once it's out, you will notice a LOT of congealed fat. I'm not an anti-fat nut by any stretch of the imagination; I know our bodies require some amount of it to function properly. Here, though, there is so much fat that if you do not remove it before heating, it will drip all over the place (and I wrap them up in large tortillas, there should be no leakage). So pick off the great globs of fat before heating. Second, is the flavor, and this is, of course, personal and subjective, but to me, they are not very good tasting (and certainly not for the price!). I added more taco seasoning, but I still can't get past the weird "flat" and "blah" flavor of these. In a pinch, they're great to add variety to your meals or for a very expensive break from just browning taco meat yourself (with much much better flavor), but honestly, I won't be ordering these again. (That said, I just LOVE this company's meatballs! So YUM!).

If I had gas this is probably cast off better cuts because it's been pureed to the point that there's no texture left and it's absolutely drenched in fat. It's mildly bitter but other than that there's no flavor to it whatsoever.

Nicely packaged but flavor is not great. Does not taste like taco meat at all.

This is a great protein option for camping, overnight to 2 day hiking, emergency kit, etc. Flavor is pretty good. Not gourmet restaurant, but still a good tasting shelf stable option. Much better heated, but can be eaten cold. Can boil in it's own bag or pour out in a pan. Throw some on a tortilla with some cheese and choice of veg and it's a good meal. It's just overly expensive in my opinion for what you get.
