Her family didn't really do Mexican cuisine, so that meant Lux had never tried them before.

Happily taking the food, she thanked her friend before opening the foil. It smelled good, and she could see that it was stuffed full of beef, lettuce, cheese, salsa, and sour cream. Yummy. "Are you going to have a taco too?" This wasn't the only one, right? Because Lux didn't want to take all of Charlie's food. "You are very welcome for the tea."
How was it even possible that Lux had never tried a taco? Wasn't the girl from America? Surely there were taco restaurants over there or at least taco kits she could buy from a grocery store! THESE WERE TACOS, FOR GOODNESS SAKE. Charlotte just didn't understand hooooow! She needed to make sure not to freak out Lux though because that would be bad, she liked her and didn't want her to run away or something. No yelling about tacos allowed. Taking in a big breath, she smiled and spoke, making sure not to sound too judgmental. "I cannot believe you've never had one! They're the best, I promise!" And if her friend didn't like them, Charlotte didn't know what she would do...die maybe? Not that she was too dramatic or anything.

Charlotte sipped at her tea and thought about whether or not she was really hungry enough to search for another taco in her bag...eventually she decided it wasn't worth it and the tea would just be enough for her. "Noooo, I'm pretty sure I only have the one and I'm not very hungry anyhow." She was sure the tea would hold her off until dinner time.
