For all the taco fans out there, it makes me so happy to let you know Oct. 4, 2019 is National Taco Day. I can't tell you how excited I am about a day that is entirely devoted to one of my fave foods. And what does National Taco Day mean for you? Well, it means you can score some awesome National Taco Day 2019 deals, so you'll probably want to plan out your meals to make sure you can score all the cheap bites.

You'll probably be interested to know what places in the United States have been deemed as having the best tacos. If you ask me, it's all a bit subjective — and we all have our own individual faves. For example, my fave is a fish taco, but I've met plenty of people who refuse to try them. According to National Taco Day data courtesy of Postmates, though, the three types of tacos ordered most in the United States are "steak tacos, chicken tacos, and tacos with Doritos in them." But don't fret Texas, your beloved Breakfast tacos made it No. 4 on that list. Postmates also provided data for the top five cities that ordered the most tacos with their app, and not surprisingly, those were Los Angeles, Phoenix, Miami, Orange County, and Las Vegas.

Other fun taco facts? Well, even though Americans are known to 'Gram their #tacotuesday, taco data courtesy of Grubhub seems to imply that Taco Tuesday is actually not the day people order the most tacos. In fact, they listed Saturday as the day of the week when tacos are ordered most. Ironically, Tuesday doesn't even make the top three days, as the other two days tacos are most popular are Sunday and Friday. Sorry, Taco Tuesday.

And remember those top five cities full of taco-loving people? Well, the weird thing is, Grubhub's Top Five States that order the most tacos are not what you'd expect. Apparently Idaho takes the number one spot, while Louisiana, Kentucky, Nebraska, and Minnesota follow. You go, Midwest, you go.

Facts are fun, but let's get to some of the best National Taco Day 2019 deals so you can plan out your Oct. 4 bites.
