Indian Taco – Originally known as Navajo Tacos, but since Indian tribes other than the Navajo Nation have also adopted these as their own, they obtained the universal name of Indian Taco. Indian Tacos are a combination of beans or ground beef, chopped lettuce, sliced tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and an optional green chile sitting atop plate-sized rounds of crispy Navajo or Indian Fry Bread. The Navajo Taco was voted the State Dish of Arizona in a 1995 poll conducted by the Arizona Republic newspaper. No plates or silverware are needed, as you just fill the fry bread with your desired fillings, roll it up, and then eat this delicious food. Eating Indian Tacos is considered very macho and requires some dedicated chewing.
