, but "French Tacos" actually don't have any genealogy in common with Tex-Mex tacos.
They have a kind of connection beyond the name, even though neither is a linear descendant of the other. Tex-Mex tacos are a descendant of traditional central Mexican tacos, as also are tacos al pastor; but tacos al pastor are also descendants of schwarma, which French tacos derive from. So they're like cousins by marriage.

I'm interested in the history of food evolution and proliferation like this. Do you know any good places where I can read more about this?
