What's the best recipe food of all time? FINAL: Tacos (any kind) VS Medium Rare Ribeye Steak

Well, here it is, you all have said that one of these is the best prepared/recipe food of all time (as opposed to plain/base food).

Which one is it?

My vote is: Well it SHOULD have been FRIED CHICKEN, but since that didn't make it...the steak easily wins.

I cannot imagine any configuration of tacos that I would prefer over a ribeye. No way.

I figure this is steak in a landslide, but both are great and deserving. I'm voting Tacos. Because dammit, tacos are great. And anyone who doesn't think they belong doesn't understand them.

They're both incredibly delicious. Tacos are more versatile, but the ribeye is my go-to meal when I have the opportunity to be indulgent, so steak wins by a hair. I won't be sad if either wins, though.

Holy cow tacos are hanging in there! Proof that this is a quality final round.

Come on taco fans. Time to come out of the woodwork and topple the Goliath that is steak!

I'm not so sure I'm going to be counting Pure's vote as this is the only one he's voted in, I have no idea who he is and never seen him before today, and the fact that he only has 116 posts....which tells me slight chance of someone's sock.


But I'm willing to listen to a defense.

Sorry. Didn't realize this was closed to only previous voters. Feel free to ignore my vote. I couldn't sleep due to a nightmare and was tooling around the boards.

Tacos are basically mexican sandwiches and if a sandwich was going to be named Best of the Best it should've been the All American BLT so I voted for the rib eye.

Wow, I'm surprised that tacos are winning (although technically I just tied it up) and really surprised that more people aren't taking Idle up on the 'should have been' options. These wouldn't be my finalists although somehow we did manage to get to a reasonable Final 2.

If the enchiladas had made it I would have had to think about it. All of the chicken enchilada pictures looked so much more delicious than any of the taco pictures, and chicken is not even my favorite kind of enchilada. Steak is not the be-all and end-all of deliciousness, but the ribeye is the best of them all and it beats tacos easily for me. I voted Well, it SHOULD have been New York-style pizza, but since that didn't make it, I'll say Ribeye Steak!

This x1000. Frankly I didn't think another food megapoll would be all that great; you can't go back and all that. But this was a blast, and it was obviously a lot of work. Thanks again, Idle!!

Right! What's with all this being nice to Idle before the shouting is finished? That's not how megapolls work.

Also, where is the fighting over steak vs tacos? Fight! People!

Eek, it's my first megapoll and I did it all wrong!

Gotta regain my street cred here... damage control... let's see...

IDLE THOUGHTS IS A COTTON-HEADED NINNYMOGGINS AND STEAK IS TOTALLY OVERRATED AS A FOODSTUFF! IT'S JUST A SLAB-O-COW AND THAT'S ALL IT TASTES LIKE UNLESS YOU GLOP A TON OF OTHER STUFF ON IT! AND RIBEYE IS MY LEAST FAVORITE CUT WITH ALL THAT GROSS FAT RUNNING THROUGH IT!

Tacos rule, ribeye drools!

It should have been tamales bought fresh and hot from a tiny little old Mexican lady. But failing that, tacos are the only sane choice. I sure hope all you steakists get the professional help that you so desperately need.

Tacos are down but not out. Come on people, let's give this plucky underdog a win! Like Rudy. Or David. Or... Um... Bread?

Whatever. Don't let this be like the apple pie round and have your votes come in too late.

Vote EARLY, vote OFTEN, VOTE TACOS!
