Controversial Food Opinions - The Béchamel Test

If I was in CA I would eat a burrito. Burritos are far superior to hamburgers.

Apparently there are more taco places than burrito places in california

How do u like yr burrito

love burritos but they cannot acheive a burgers juicy hot greasy cheesy umami

I had a carnitas burrito today. I always have them skimp on the rice although that makes my burrito a little soggy diapery. I get everything on it. And extra hot sauce.

Rice is so useless. Except in sushi. And I guess for sake.

a good burger is better than a good burrito
but i am a ride or die redmeat carnivore

Pork wet burrito w everything on it for me

But yeah i would probably choose a burger between the two for the most part

I can still really get into a wet burrito though

mr veg loves wet burritos
i find them horrifyingly enormous & overkill

OH man, I thought wet burritos were something that I just had to deal with, I didn't know people preferred it.

Ladies...

A man eats a wet burrito

they are the size of a newborn infant! terrifying

Wait is a wet burrito a size thing? I once ate two burritos from Burritoville on a dare. It was the last time my now spouse ever dared me to do something because neither one of us were really winners from that.

I am trying to think of something I would eat a hamburger over. Maybe a baked potato or fried rice.

wet burritos are just sauced, what are any of you on about

also isn't the baby-sized burrito a specifically bay area thing (the mission burrito)? new mexican burritos are small and basically just one ingredient throughout ("hand-held")

at our taqueria an unwrapped wet burrito is twice as wide as a wrapped burrito because they wrap em really tight & they are full of stuff

idk about authentic or nothing tho

The ones in LA/California are usually big (idk, 5 inches?), have red or green sauce, and melted cheese on top

Inside there’s usually rice, beans, meat, and sometimes lettuce/tomato/guac

The wet burritos in Vancouver, Canada are small and mild like most things in Vancouver and not common

My burrito today I had to stand up in it's wrapper/foil and needed a spoon assist.

wait what the hell is an unwrapped burrito

not wrapped in foil

ahhhh ok

Xp to yerac

5x3” maybe

U kno what

Here this is from a pretty good place to get a wet burrito in LA — tepeyac in boyle heights:

I’m on phone but that looks like the one

Other faves are Tere’s on melrose/cahuenga

And for something a little heavier El Coyote

Damn i miss LA food

I don't ever see it with sauce on top, but that size seems right. I don't think I would like the outer wrap all wet.

Tortilla yo

Get outta here w “wrap”

unwrap the diaper.

a wet burrito by definition has the sauce on top!

why would you want a burrito covered in sauce

on the outside

The covered in sauce thing seems like something a Chili's would do.

Xxxp

It’s an LA thing bro

A bunch of these things are called wet but they vary in size and sometimes they don’t add cheese on it

Look at the pics on tepeyac’s or coyote’s yelp page

I thought LA people try not to poop.

wet burritos can be good. sauce is usually a good thing wherever it is.

why would you want a burrito covered in sauce

i likeah the sauce

the sauce is good

my take on burritos: i'm all set

Extra sauce on anything is pretty terrible.

although this may be why i don't like soups or stews.

it isnt extra. It is the sauce.

wasn't there a thread about the weirdos who get extra sauce on pizza?

I had never heard of a wet burrito until I moved to the 🇺🇸 midwest. but it can be good nonetheless

I was surprised to find them out here after moving from the midwest

just not ground beef

not liking soup is a crime. Do you like ramen?

she intersting

I like ramen and udon but I always do the bukkake *sigh* style. And if I make instant ramen at home I pour out the broth.

Dont know how I missed this thread first go round.

I WILL EAT BECHAMEL ON ITS OWN OUT OF THE POT.

But I have to have made it myself obv. And it has to be spoon-standing thick. Comparing it to mayo upthread was utterly weird. Bechamel has no eggs* or vinegar in it.

*yes I have seen lasagne/bake recipes where it does.

Bukkake style is okay but i prefer nyumen, and then soumen

I like the coldness of somen and the dipping. I prefer cold noodles.

rice is so useless

Maybe once, it was a persian saffron chicken dish.

Rice is just, whatever. I am not one of those asians that eats it every day to feel complete.

Bukkake style is okay

I like the coldness of somen

A small double take there.
