Tacos have gone from one of America’s most popular restaurant foods to a serious fashion statement. A $59 tank top from Los Angeles-based clothing brand Chaser reads “tacos are my life.” New York-based Nylon Media’s online store sells taco-themed jewelry and sunglasses while Kate Spade offers a $358 purse in the shape of a taco truck. Online retailer Etsy says taco searches were up more than 65% in the first half of this year.
