I'm pretty sure the idea is that there are many ways to eat a taco. I just Googled it (this is the first link for example), and you can either just sort of pinch it together and eat it at an angle (which can be messy, yes; it certainly is for me... though I understand practice helps), or fold it all up like a burrito. I've been to several Mexican places that serve tacos like that, and there are websites that say the former method is the 'proper' way to eat a taco. Whatevs, I say. It's all about the food. And I rather liked them!
