# Globally Inspired Taco Kits Old El Paso's Taco Kits Introduce Caribbean, Japanese & Korean Flavors By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-06-29 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taco-kits References: [foodbusinessnews.net](https://www.foodbusinessnews.net/articles/16326-old-el-paso-launches-globally-inspired-taco-kits) & [oldelpaso](https://www.oldelpaso.com/) Old El Paso is introducing a new way for people to experience its DIY taco kits with an infusion of globally inspired flavors. According to the brand, the new offerings put a global take on the classic taco flavors with fusions inspired by the Caribbean, Japan and Korea. In every World Taco Kit, there are 10 flour tortillas, a seasoning packet and a sauce packet, to which a few fresh additions and toppings can be added based on a person's preferences. While the Caribbean Jerk taco kit pairs a medium pineapple pepper sauce with a mild jerk seasoning mix, the Japanese Teriyaki kit focuses on honey soy and teriyaki flavors. To round out the new World Taco Kits, there's also a Korean BBQ set with medium sesame chile sauce and a mild Korean barbecue seasoning mix.
