Wasabi Tacos Zine

We are the Wasabi Tacos team, based in Portland (OR) and San Antonio (TX). We shed light on food and cultural identity.

My first zine order through Big Cartel! Wasabi Tacos is a serial food zine written mostly by POC and tackles personal histories and culture. Includes recipes! wasabitacos.bigcartel.com

Man I love these #zines though they have given me gray hair and puffy eyes. Haha. And they are still evolving. #pzs2015 #zinesters #nosleep

Yes I am this messy when working on the #zine especially before the PDX Zine Symposium #pzs2015

[wasabitacos]

It's messy like the morning after a party but it's really the morning after the time-consuming #zine designing #pzs2015 #pdx #wasabitacos

I see Mexico and Oregon and the Netherlands here #imsofancy

Wasabi Tacos lives

Thank you all for your support of our beloved zine on food, culture, and personal exploration of both. We’re very proud of where volume 4 is headed. We have more writers on board than ever before!

A hard day’s night creating Wasabi Tacos covers for y’all

Portland Zine Symposium this weekend!

Wasabi Tacos has a table at the PDX Zine Symposium! I will be there on Saturday afternoon. It's still up in the air whether I will be there on Sunday.

At the table, you'll be able to:

trade your zine for one of mine (free!)

submit a recipe and get a free zine, amigos (free!)

decorate a label so you can Make Your Own Big Ass Sticker (50¢)

buy Wasabi Tacos (vols 1 + 2) or Marimba Bitch ($3)

Spread the word, mes amis!
