With that in mind, what criteria should this judgment even be based on? How can we determine that one fast food taco is better than another?

Eat This, Not That! recently ranked the best fast food tacos, acknowledging the overwhelming variety of options to help readers find the tastiest choices. They focused on popular quick-service Mexican food chains and evaluated their most common or popular taco offerings. The rankings begin with the least impressive tacos and build up to the best, but we’re going to focus solely on the very best.

Now that we’ve covered that, which fast food taco available in Maine is being called America’s best?

Again, according to Eat This, Not That! and their recent report, ‘The Best Fast-Food Tacos, Ranked,’ the best fast food taco in America can be found at Chipotle. Eat This, Not That! had this to say about their top pick:

Aside from the incredibly well-seasoned chicken, the super fresh and thick tortilla is great, the lettuce tastes clean and crispy, and the salsa brings just enough heat to balance the cheese. If you're hungry and ready to spend about $4 a taco, there's no better option than Chipotle.

Well, now you know! America’s best fast food taco is at Chipotle. With seven locations across Maine, it’s never too far out of reach!
