A reader lets us know that his friend in Japan spotted a taco truck and blogged about it, saying:

Saw a taco truck in Makuhari just outside of Carrefour. First time I've ever seen it out there, but it seemed like it's a regular thing. A lot better than that stupid fried bread truck I used to see on that same street closer to Room Deco. They need one of these in Chiba city (taco truck not fried bread).

After the London Taco truck, can you deny the power of the taco lifestyle as it takes over the world?! If you know of other taco truck pioneers, please contact TACO.
