    LEMON FILLED - that one is mine. This reminds me of when I was stationed in San Antonio and once and awhile we would get called in for some emergency - -The Colonel would bring in breakfast (brearkfast tacos) from some little mom and pop place. They were so good.

    I live in Texas. I'm not a huge Whataburger fan, but they have breakfast items that other fast food restaurants don't have. I like their #24 Breakfast Platter. It comes with eggs, bacon or sausage, a biscuit, potatoes and a drink for around $5. If you order using their app, they have designated parking spots so you don't have to take your pajamas into the store.

    ***TAQUITO HACK***
    If you get the Taquito meal, eat all of the hash brown sticks first (or add some to ur taquito). Then you can slide ur Taquito into the hash browns stick rapper and it's like a little pocket. And it won't drip if u use salsa.😁 Great for driving! I love bacon egg and cheese with the hash brown stixs of course. It just fits perfect.

    If you are ever in La Grange you have to go to Weikels Bakery. It’s inside a big Exxon station but has been around for years. They make the best pastries. Kolaches, Honey Bee Rolls (kinda like a sticky bun), great breakfast tacos. They also make great sandwiches at lunch (homemade bread). In San Antonio, Mi Tierra down in the Mexican market is a great place for breakfast. Don’t leave without getting some pralines in the bakery.

    Hey Travel Snacks. Like your informational videos. I have been vegan a long time and make my own tofu scramble, my opinion it taste great! I make vegan egg salad too, I love that. Some vegan food companies unfortunately don't make good vegan products, but there are other companies that do and they perfect it, don't give up!! Miyoko's vegan mozzarella cheese taste like the real deal, omg, its addicting, its like a 5 star hotel.

    Im in DFW and if you are in the area again my favorite breakfast tacos are rudys brisket ones. I dont normally eat breakfast but i make an exception for those! And if you ever swing towards waco the small town just north of there is called West and chock full of kolache places - personal favorite are ham and cheese and cream cheese but the sausage ones are probably most popular savory flavor, and my kids love the fruit and cream cheese ones. Cant go wrong with a kolache!

      haha...I've definitely become more fluffy eating all this Texas food. And now we have snow here in Dallas as well. Try to stay warm, and thanks for watching!

    If you mess up a breakfast taco in Texas, you should close your restaurant although not many folks get tacos with a corn tortilla. And $3 a taco? Ummm, no. If you want incredible Tex-Mex, San Antonio is the place to go. Be careful saying anything about Whataburger in Texas...this state is open-carry!
