Following the success of last year’s Director of Taco Relations job search, which garnered more than 5,000 submissions, ‘America’s Got Tacos’ is calling on taco lovers to create an original jingle that showcases their love for all things tacos.

Today through August 31, 2022, taco aficionados who are at least 18 years of age and reside in the United States can submit creative videos showcasing their favorite taco recipe featuring McCormick Original Taco Seasoning at McCormick.com/AmericasGotTacos. The winner of the competition will receive $50,000 and a year’s supply of McCormick Original Taco Seasoning.

Made without artificial color, flavors, and no added MSG, McCormick Original Taco Seasoning is truly something to celebrate. As part of the partnership, Palmer will use her lyrical and culinary expertise to help narrow down entrant submissions and select the winner of ‘America’s Got Tacos.’ Palmer will also use her social media channels to get fans excited and provide tips and tricks for creating a standout jingle.
