“I love Texas because of the melting pot of different cultures that have migrated here and adopted the taco into their cuisine,” said Flores. “I’m so excited for this opportunity to travel Texas while seeing and tasting the different impact the taco has had on each region.”

He will also receive over $10,000 for his role and will have all his food, transportation and accommodations paid for.
