Idk, probably because I never tried real tacos? (it's pretty rare here where I live)
edit: wtf dude. although i have an experience eating worm, yeah I'm not kidding. it's a delicacy in some parts here.

most people when they think of taco's, they think of tex-mex taco's rather than authentic taco's
the difference between the two in some peoples opinion is huge and to others it is small. basically tex-mex means more US Americanized. the hard shell is a dead give away it is tex-mex taco's as that is not a traditional south american corn tortilla which is floppy.
sorry for poking fun
edit:
the 'cheese' though in those tacos was the same shade of brown/orange as the worm
more edits:
just so you get an idea i guess between the two
(typically what is thought of) texmex- hard corn shell (doritos with no flavoring?), meat (pan fried ground beef with seasonings), re-fried beans ( beans that have been cooked once and smashed up into a paste and recooked). iceburg lettuce, diced tomato, shreded mild yellow cheddar, a small amount of sour cream.
an actual taco- a soft floppy corn tortilla, meat ( wide range of options from shrimp, fish, cow, chicken, pig, venison. though its pretty much never ground meat or pan fried, but slow cooked in seasoning till it falls apart... except for the fish and shrimp) you can stop with ingredients there but corn based salsa is pretty common, cheese is optional too but it is typically a white cojita or white queso fresco. you might get wedges of lime and cilantro leaves or even a dab of guacamole to garnish.
please feel free to tell me what i forgot or why I m stupid, not an expert just a food enthusiast.
