Are you talking about the possessive form, as in something that belongs to a taco (such as the taco's meat), or did you think, for some unknown reason, that there might be an apostrophe in some plurals (that aren't also made possessive at the same time)? If you thought that an apostrophe belongs in a standard plural, then why and where did you get that idea? Why and where does anyone, not just you, get an idea that a nonpossive plural would have an apostrophe? There is no apostrophe for plural of "taco," as in "They're selling tacos here." Use an apostrophe for the possessive form, though, as in "The taco's meat is good," or to show a contraction of "taco is," as in "This taco's great!"
