Video: Forget About Taxicab Confessions, L.A. Gets Its Own Taco Truck Confessions

With our free press under threat and federal funding for public media gone, your support matters more than ever. Help keep the LAist newsroom strong, become a monthly member or increase your support today.

We've seen our share of taxicab confessions, but now there's a video out there that gives us a glimpse at what taco truck confessions are all about—and we love it.

L.A. Taco blog released their nearly five-minute teaser on Tuesday of a new video series they're working on that drops in January where they interview folks from different backgrounds grubbing on tacos and sharing their stories about what it's like living in L.A. In the preview, we get to hear people ruminate on the problem with bikini bars, getting stuck in the friend zone and getting tested for STDs. Best of all, we hear some dude describe a burrito as "chunky as fuck," in regards to its size.

And looking at the tacos, quesadillas and burritos everyone was munching on in the video got our stomachs growling as they gave some love to some some of the best in Los Angeles like Taco Zone, Tacos Arizas, Gus' Lunch Box, Leo's Taco Truck and Danny's Tacos.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.

But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.

We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.

Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
