¡claro! eating the fries on the side would just make the burrito a burger i think.

I think I've actually had a burrito from there - it was excellent. I was in El Cajon for all of three days.

really? down the street from city hall, next door to a chaldean market? it's my all-time favorite, my friend used to live in the taft apartments behind it and we'd always stumble over there to get our late-night burritage. el compadre on second street, right off the 8, is also good and features the popular drive-thru thru the a-frame setup. el cajon is my hometown, i'm glad you had a favorable visit, burrito-wise anyway.

My weekly burrito consumption might increase in the near future. There's a new Meixcan foodtruck at 16th & Callowhill in Philadelphia (right near a major INS office).
This truck turned out to be owned and run by an Indonesian couple who had been taught by Mexicans. Obviously, my burrito consumption has increased substantially since moving to Albuquerque.

i haven't had a real burrito in months. i've had burrito bowls from chipotle, but it's not the same. must remedy soon.

i think the last one i had was the carne asada burrito from the la estrella taco truck in highland park, the night i went to see william basinski and lucky dragons.

Do french fries belong inside of burritos? What do you think?
― sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 2 September 2020 18:15 (three years ago) link
you know, there was a time when people questioned whether or not potatoes belonged inside french fries. nowadays, most people don't even know about that struggle. that's kind of where we are with french fry burritos today, i think

Only if rice and beans vanish from the earth.

we should also ask ourselves, if a burro ate a burrito would that be considered cannibalism?

I am specifically referring to the burrito style described here which is now seen all over (?) the country.

If French fries belong in a kebab, they also belong in a burrito.

Anyway, only one ILX poster has the legitimacy required to weigh in on this.

i knew my minor in burrito studies would come in handy some day!
yes, i took one look at that crappy post, and decided to fix it by changing "burritos" to "burrito studies"
inside the ilx poster's studio
the amended version has the greater wit, but it suffers from poor placement

I do not understand the appeal of burritos.0 per month.― oops (Oops), Monday, 11 July 2005 18:28 (fifteen years ago) link
One of the wrongest posts ever. One of nature's most perfect food groupings. Between breakfast burritos, quick lunches with beans and cheese in the microwave, and full on dinner ones with all the fixin's, I'm probably at 5-6 per week. Or more.
That said, the California burrito really does not look good to me.

I'd wolf one down if offered.

i know this doesn't even really qualify as food but I got one of these by accident a couple of years ago and it was genuinely one of the worst things I've ever put in my mouth:

are ppl who live outside of southern california allowed to have opinions on mexican food? asking for a friend
i mean "mexican" food
― the late great, Wednesday, 2 September 2020 20:21 (three years ago) link
they don't really eat burritos in mexico so much
Everyone's allowed an opinion on 'Mexican' food, as long as you acknowledge the scare quotes.
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 2 September 2020 20:22 (three years ago) link
New Mexicans, Texans, and Arizonans are allowed to, too.
― the unappreciated charisma of cows (Aimless), Wednesday, 2 September 2020 20:22 (three years ago) link
disagree

Is 'Tex-Mex' fair game?
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 2 September 2020 20:23 (three years ago) link
interesting tactic to claim burritos for Mexico and then immediately put quotes around Mexico all while arguing for the primacy of a place that’s not Mexico

sorry i'm so snarky but it's 1:30 pm and i haven't had my burrito yet
