Beans and rice are great in a gigantic super burrito because you can buy one for cheap and it'll fill you up all day.

I like all types of burritos. I don't discriminate (unless they're from taco bell or Texas or something).

My Go To Burritos:

- Carne asada, guac, cheese, pico (Carne Asada burrito with cheese)
- Pollo Asado, sour cream, guac, cheese, french fries (California with pollo instead of Carne with guac added)
- Bean & cheese burrito with enchilada sauce added inside.


I am a burrito based life form.

There's something about taco bell taco supremes that do it for me. I wouldn't put it in the same catecory as actual Mexican food, nor do I really eat anything else there, but i dig me some taco supremes.

No, unless "parking lot" or "warehouse" is synonymous with "burrito shop" for you, which would not be surprising in the 90% of america where garbage = mexican food.

I'm pretty convinced that if at least 20 people live somewhere in CA, you can get a pretty solid burrito.

chinatown, what goes into your breakfast burritos?

I am waiting for mcdonalds or carls jr to invent a mcgriddle equivalent but with burritos... like, maple syrup infused tortillas and stuffed with eggs, tater tots and sausage.

Basically a mcdonalds deluxe breakfast but you can actually eat it in your car.

I have found an idea and I'm going to make millions

My usual order is pretty simple. Egg, cheese, pico, guac.

Sometimes I will gently caress with hashbrowns, chorizo, or bacon.

That's right. Here it is. But it's like you always have compared the sword, the making of the sword, with the making of the character. Cuz the stronger, the stronger it will get, right, the stronger the steel will get, with all that, and the same as with the character.
Soiled Meat
So I have a confession to make, guys. Despite growing up in CA, I can never seem to eat a foil-wrapped burrito properly. I tried one last year from a pretty decent place near my old work in SF, and it was just a disaster. I carefully watched my colleagues tear the foil as they made their way down, and I did the same. However, it became a disaster, with copious amounts of grease and fillings falling out as I ate, and I had nowhere near enough napkins to account for this. And then I got down to the point about 4/5 of the way through, where essentially what I had left was a tortilla-cup holding the remainder of the filling. I could not figure out how to navigate this so I just accepted that I was finished.

Now I love burritos, but I usually go to places where I can get it on a plate (bonus points if it's served wet) so then I won't get looked at funny for breaking out the cutlery. The hell am I doing wrong?

You are eating at a place that cannot make a loving burrito properly. If your burrito is leaking or poo poo is falling all over the place then probably one of two things is happening:

1. Whoever wrapped it did a poo poo job.
2. The place uses GARBAGE "tortillas" that fall apart (This is why Chipotle sucks dick)
3. The place uses tortillas that are too small and cannot be properly wrapped around the fillings. (Chipotle, again)

That sounds pretty classic, although I'd probably skip the guacamole - it doesn't agree with me unless it's by itself and some chips.

I will only eat chorizo if it's a real small amount (like, not an entire burrito chock full of it) or if I am in close radius to a bathroom.

Having said that, I believe chorizo is the bacon of the southwest. Chorizo and eggs, chorizo and toast, gonna try it on a pizza someday.

One day, I will make chorizo-topped lasagna and it will be my crowning culinary achievement.

I actually hate pico because I am a 12 year old who hates uncooked tomatoes (it is probably genetic, my whole dad's side of the family thinks they taste like soap).
Give me some something spicier and/or tomatillo based.

Also, chorizo and eggs is amazing. Cheap protein and tastes awesome.

Avocado is the food of the gods. Gauc without tomatoes is fine, but it always feels like they are just trying to stretch the avocado out with filler.

I can handle it just fine... just would rather have it in a bowl with some chips rather than in a burrito.

Chorizo is OK with me except that I can't eat a half pound of it without getting the shits.

Authentic pico de gallo on pizza is the best thing I've ever had. Unfortunately, most everyone I know can't be in the same room as an opened container of the stuff without breaking into a sweat, let alone actually eating any.

EDIT: Guacamole doesn't agree with me if I've been drinking. Forgot to mention that.

I substitute red peppers for tomatoes, but they get added in solely for presentation (to add color). I don't add very much of it.

My secret guacamole ingredient is red onions and garlic. :ninja:
