Inspired by the shrimp tacos sold by street vendors in Mexico, Taco John's new Mango Shrimp Street Tacos deliver bold flavor for an incredible value. Each taco features crispy golden shrimp paired with mango pico de gallo that's been prepared fresh in stores, chimichurri sour cream, and lettuce – all served in a soft corn-flour blend tortilla. As Taco John's Corporate Chef and Director of [Menu Innovation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omcheese-quesadilla-taco) Brad Bergaus, explains, "Our new Mango Shrimp Street Tacos give our guests the opportunity to venture into new flavors and protein options with a dynamic street taco... We had a lot of fun imagining what a street taco could be, outside of what we’ve typically offered, and exploring new and premium ingredients."
