What is the difference between a taco and a fajita?

A taco is defined as an (often crisply fried) tortilla folded over and filled with seasoned chopped meat, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. The meat in fajitas usually mingles with grilled or sauteed peppers and onions, which are cut into similarly sized strips.

Are fajitas and wraps the same?

The difference lies in exactly what makes up the fajita. The Spanish word fajita means “beef strips,” describing the thin, tough cut of beef. Because it is not the tenderest meat, it is marinated in a highly spiced sauce, then barbecued, and served with more hot sauce. A fajita describes the meat, not the wrap itself.
