Tacoman-LOL! Like lirpa21/yari21 have said...it's very GOOD!

Fish tacos are very popular is Southern Calfornia. It sounds gross but actually very good. I thought the same at first but got daring and tried it. Glad I did.

I've heard they originated in Baja and they're actually very good. Granted, this particular recipe has entirely too many ingredients but if you take the Tilapia and add a mango pico de gallo, in corn torillas - absolutely delicious.
