I like the crunchy, but I wrap it with a soft. Keeps it from falling apart. Been doing this for years.

Can you still get fresh taco shells? Every single one I've bought in the last 3 years has been stale. I've tried Ortega. I've tried store brands. I've emptied whole shelves looking at expiration dates. We still eat them, but they are, as the youngsters say, "stale af."



Didn't read if anyone else answered. Bake at 300 for 5 mins, even stale shells will immediately refresh and become melty crunchy. Haven't tossed old shells in years since baking them first. I just store old shells in airtight containers until I can use them.

g to add: bake brand new shells too, they're the most stale ones of them all!

Yep when making tacos at home use the refried beans between the hard and soft shells
