In reply to the discussion: 2% of Americans (claim to) have never eaten a taco [View all]PoindexterOglethorpe
(25,857 posts)51. No, it really hasn't always been around,
but it's now been around long enough that it does seem like forever.
I'm also going to guess that Grandpa rarely went out to eat, which would also make a difference.
Eating out was relatively uncommon for families at least through the 1950's and well into the '60's. I remember that my parents at one point would go out once a month and take one of us six kids with them. It was an incredible treat.
At this point most of us take for granted eating out on a regular basis.
