Fox "News" asks Nicaraguan meteorologist to host ‘Taco Day’ segment: ‘You grew up on tacos’ NOooooo!
Fox News asks Nicaraguan meteorologist to host ‘Taco Day’ segment: ‘You grew up on tacos’
Fox News host Brian Kilmeade on Friday said he assumed that the network’s Latina meteorologist “grew up on tacos,” even though it is not a traditional food in her native country of Nicaragua.
To celebrate National Taco Day, Fox & Friends asked Fox News Weather team member Maria Molina, who was born in Nicaragua and grew up in South Florida, to host a segment explaining how to make tacos.
“So what are the tips we need to know?” Kilmeade asked Molina. “You grew up on tacos, correct?”
“No, I did not grow up on tacos!” Molina shot back. “I’m Nicaraguan. It’s not a native food.”
Watch the video below from Fox News’ Fox & Friends, broadcast Oct. 4, 2013.

It's a balanced meal in a tortilla! All the food groups in one bite!
My Mom embraced her heritage and would cook trad Erin delicacies on St Paddy's day. It was a big deal around the "Hurd" homestead come mid-March.
If you know the punchline. 
I learned that one from my drunken buddies.
Not every Spanish-speaking country has tacos as a native food! 
…"bi-ignorant." 
(Yes, the shell is made of bacon!)
To say was it mental problems or "something"else about that woman who tried to crash the WH gates. I bet they believe Obama was tracking her. Especially if she had an Obama phone.
I'm still waiting for my phone. Are we going to get them before he leaves office? Maybe Faux has info on that.

Mayor Joseph Maturo insisted he would not resign on Thursday, even while an immigration reform group brought hundreds of tacos to his office in response to his comment this week that he "might have tacos" to support the Latino community.
A swarm of media crews fought for room while more than a dozen stern-faced protesters crowded into town hall carrying aluminum trays of warm tacos....
Some local Hispanics say the mayor's statement shows a lack of understanding and interest in the community.
"It's like he's saying, 'OK, I'll go out and show my face at a Hispanic restaurant,'" Pedro Gutierrez, the owner of the Guti'z bakery said. "He doesn't even know most people are Ecuadoreans here," since tacos are native to Mexico and not part of traditional Ecuadorean cuisine.
