141 and Tacos [Headcanons]
Characters: Simon "Ghost" Riley, John "Soap" MacTavish, Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, John Price, Alejandro Vargas, Rodolfo Parra
Whilst 141 and you are on a quick break through the streets of Mexico, do you spot a fairly sized taco stand on the side of the sidewalk. Eat up! What kind of tacos would 141 like?
A/N: Y'all can't tell me 141 DIDN'T eat any mexican food during their time in Mexico cause i knOW they were starving goDDAMN,,, Also this was written with a reader with Mexican origin or relation in mind, so take that as you will.
also first post on this blog ★
warnings: none unless you don't like the description of cow tongue or somethin' :)
Price
This man loves the good ol' classic Tacos De Carne
Asks the poor vendor to pour a ungodly amount of onions ontop because's who's gonna stop him cmon now,,
also he's british,,,
Rudy kinda looks at him like 'Damn does the man like onions this much?'
Fell in LOVE with the salsa verde although he had a stroke at first
Orders 10 tacos de carne and a quesadilla because he's about "variety"
After his first time eating them, he craves tacos a bit more after finishing missions.
That one dude that puts hella avocado in his tacos
No like literally the poor tortilla is gonna pop open
"..."
"What?"
"Price your taco is gonna literally fucking explode.."
Instead of killing enemies, Price is killing these poor tacos
He still eats them in peace tho 🫶
Soap
Soap's a bit more of the daring/curious one
So he tries the Tacos de Lengua first since you offer one to those who dared eat it because you're pretty sure none of the 141 members (excluding Alejandro and Rudy) have tasted cow tongue before.
Cringed at first when he took the first bite tbh
The texture was something that threw him wayyy off
Like who tf thought putting cow tongue in tacos was a good idea??
But as he slowly started taking it in, it actually tasted...good?
The meat was soft and chewy but it oddly felt comforting?
Quickly found himself to actually like the tacos and orders 5 more from the vendor.
Asks if your mother makes them, and if you say yes, he WILL ask for an invite.
"IS THIS WHAT YOU LIVE WITH?? YOU'VE EATEN THIS YOUR WHOLE LIFE?!"
croaked at the salsa roja though, started tearing up a lil`,, it's ok tho you pat his back as he chugs water.
Gaz
i will die with the headcannon that gaz is as gen.z as he can be
Orders Tacos de Birria because he remembered Rodolfo talking about eating some for lunch.
He also remembers seeing people cook them on his insta feed so
Likes the greasiness to them tbh
AND THE CHEESE PULL HE GOT WHEN HE TOOK THAT FIRST BITE? JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL THIS MAN IS IN HEAVEN
His leg gave out as he finished his first taco
you know the lil birria juice they give yall in a lil bowl? Stained.
His fingers are drenched and shi
50 napkins by his plate as he eats ong
Ate 4 before he tapped out
Will chug a coke and a water after so his arteries don't feel as clogged tho
This poor man is in a food coma at the lil picnic table by the stand by how full he got with only 4 of those tacos.
"Ayo where's Gaz?"
Gaz: -Sprawled out on the picnic table seat with his eyes closed-
"Oh fuck he's dead-"
"I lived bitch."
Ghost
Was very hesitant to taste tacos out in the streets at first because damn his paranoia does get ahead of him :(
But after everyone tries them, he tries to give them a shot
Didn't like the tacos de lengua because of the texture
And the tacos de birria were too greasy for him (but if he would've totally ate them after drinking though)
But damn, looking at the pastor slowly rotate on the vertical rotisserie did make it look really appetizing...
No regrets
Really likes the tad of sweetness added to the flavor because of the pineapple added
Ghost really loves meat so when he watched the vendor pack the tortilla with pastor, he knew he was in for a ride.
Orders quite a bit,, like 7 (or more if he's really hungry)
Faces away from yall to eat so you guys couldn't see his reaction but damn, that empty plate tells stories..
Alejandro
Being born in Mexico got it perks ngl
And being in Special Forces allows him to travel all around the Mexican states.
So he's tried alot of taco varieties
But his heart and soul will always be with Barbacoa straight from his momma's home OR from Las Almas.
Either in tacos or with a full plate of rice and frijoles puercos he will FUCK THEM UP.
Plate cleared and EVERYTHING
He loves eating them when he's homesick :(
Lives by salsa roja,, and throughout these headcannons I'm not talking about the salsa only made with tomatoes,, I'm talking about it being made with them red hot ass chiles.
The butt on fire kinda salsa roja
Drinks one corona whilst eating
But also waters that down with a cold water righttt after 😌
Rodolfo
Another classic,, Loves the crunch of the tacos de chicharron ♡
Like Alejandro, he pours an crazy ass amount of salsa roja on top
And lemon, lots of lemon on top,,
Soap and Ghost watch him in curiosity and fear as he drenched his tacos red
You give him props fr fr
Always drinks a Jarrito de Tamarindo with his tacos, like a baller~
Orders like 5 normally and like 1 taco de chorizo on the side :P
Just as a palette cleanser, but besides tacos de chicharron, he also likes the taste of tacos de lengua
But tbh it just depends on how he's feeling
Likes his onions cooked and put on the side so he can just plain right eat them.
And righttt after he's done eating everything, he grabs another Jarrito as a finisher :D
