Is taco seasoning the same as fajita seasoning?

How much taco seasoning do I need for 1 pound of meat?
How do Mexican restaurants get the ground beef so fine?
Ever wonder why some taco meat found at restaurants or in chili is ground SUPER fine and how they get it that way? That is the result of actually boiling the hamburger first. This method of cooking brings the temperature of the meat up slowly and prevents it from clumping, keeping it finely ground.
Why is my taco meat mushy?
Ground beef turns mushy when you use low-quality beef that’s been handled too much and/or kept at room temperature. This smears the fat. During cooking, the smeared fat turns to liquid and steams the meat rather than frying it leaving it mushy. That’s the short answer.
What does baking soda do to ground beef?
According to this article in Cook’s Illustrated, the baking soda “raises the pH on the meat’s surface, making it more difficult for the proteins to bond excessively,” and allows the meat to remain tender even as it cooks. They recommended a slurry of baking soda and water and a 15-minute minimum soak before cooking.
