If you’ve ever wondered where all the component parts of your taco come from, a group of California College of the Arts architecture students have you covered. The Tacoshed Project, born from the intersection of a taco cart taco and a discussion of food and wastesheds, breaks down where all the various bits of the beloved street food come from: the cheese, the rice, the aluminum foil. The resulting chart tells a story that starts at a taco cart and stretches out into Mexico, the Midwest, Australia, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.
