Ortega Taco Shells, Yellow Corn, 18 Count

I've had off brands and store brands that were good too but for name brand hard taco shells Ortega is the clear winner, crunchy, usually not smashed.... unless you get a bad batch. Not the minis but regular sized, yellow and tostadas are also usually good (freshness is a tostada issue with Ortega but when they don't taste stale they are spot on the best) Honestly even Aldi had good hard tacos but these are good

These are my favorite hard taco shell. Depending on what the list price is it can be a really good deal compared to buying the 12pk in stores. There are of course a few broken shells here and there but no different than your chances at the store.

Really great taco shells. Thin and crisp and delicious. However, Amazon's packing is the worst I've ever seen. The shells are nearly always smashed to bits. The packers have to know that they are delicate and need to be packed separately. My recent order was packed along with jars of sauce and almost no packing separating the heavy from the delicate, letting the jars smack into the shells relentlessly. I can't see any reason why this keeps happening other than the packing people at Amazon are either overworked or they are simply doing this for fun. I love the shells, they are lightweight and great tasting but they might as well stop selling this stuff if they can't even try to get it right.

Every taco shell broken in both boxes. Total waste of money.

Do love these especially since this is all I’ve been eating fevers day for nearly two years. Just add a little taco meat. Cheese, and sour cream. Hit or miss because sometimes all you get are boxes of broken shells. If they are just broken in half can still make taco but have to hold it just right so everything doesn’t fall out.At first I was buying these at Walmart but they suddenly stopped selling them. I happened upon them here on Amazon & they were only $2.50 per box, a great deal. I was buying ten boxes at a time. It’s time yo get more but they have increased in price. Maybe it’s time to stop buying them. Honestly I’m am getting a little tired of just eating these and nuts everyday anyway. So thanks for increasing the price and helping me quit my taco addition once and got all.

These taco shells are amazing. I used them for Carne asada tacos and they were amazing. I will definitely buy again.

This is a mixed review. I love Ortega products. This box arrived well packaged but the contents were totally crushed. I won't do this again.

Some broken due to transit but you can use those bits for nachos. Excellent for the price.
