“The more dangerous the neighborhood, the better the tacos”

“The more dangerous the neighborhood, the better the tacos” is a saying that has been printed on many images. Authorship is uncertain; the saying was popular in California by May 2018.
 
“The more dangerous the neighborhood, the better the taco trucks” was posted on Twitter by Alpha Martin (from Menlo Park, CA) on December 20, 2017. “The more dangerous/ The neighborhood,/ The better the tacos” (shown on a T-shirt) was posted on Twitter by Cartel Ink (from Santa Fe Springs, CA) on May 18, 2018. “The more dangerous the neighborhood, the better the tacos” was printed in the Visalia (CA) Times-Delta on June 15, 2018.
 
The saying has been popular in Spanish. “Entre más peligroso es el barrio, más rico saben los tacos” was posted on Twitter by Aldo Velo🌬️ on February 3, 2021. “Ya lo dice Carolina Herrera: ‘entre más peligros el barrio, más rico saben los tacos’” was posted on Twitter by Diego Marin on June 19, 2022. (Carolina Herrera  is a Venezuelan-American fashion designer.)

The two are now regulars of Tacos Lucha and say they are the best tacos around. Jimenez agrees with Gonzalez that the location is perfect.

“The more dangerous the neighborhood, the better the tacos,” (Jose—ed.) Jimenez said.
