Cook up your filling and scoop it in there and never need to worry about about spilling.

This is like the worst of both worlds, the floppiness of a tortilla dropping your poo poo everywhere combined with the form factor of a bowl yet no rigidity or resistance to a knife and fork which you'd need to eat the loving thing because its not burrito shaped

Burritos are enclosed tubes with structural integrity provided by the wrap, this thing is a floppy open bowl which if filled to anything like the suggested serving on the packet would be a huge pain to eat without cutlery

I had these once at a potluck. They're stiffer than normal tortillas so the boat shape holds up when filled. They're small enough that its basically a burrito with the top open or a soft taco that stays folded up when set down on a plate. I wouldn't buy them but it served its purpose ok. I could see it working well for children, like at a party.

OK I was picturing them as bigger in my head. I guess it's like taco size except the ends are sealed so you can still squish it together and eat it taco style. I still think they suck.

Yeah we decided "bad and cheap burritos" would be called tacos for some reason. They usually come with a shitload of meat and sauce with fries inside. Some chains will let you add like 3 type of meat so you can have aberrations like curry chicken, kebab and cordon bleu tacos with cheese and barbecue sauce.
It's nonsense, but I'd say the stomach ache per euro is pretty strong and you usually don't want another afterwards. because you'd be dead

I love puttering around foreign cities in Google Earth and looking at the photos on restaurants, and that's how I learned about French "tacos" and how the standard cheese for them is Emmental.

A wrap?
But also, taco boats are a perfectly reasonable way to have a soft shell taco. While the burrito pockets might be largely unneeded they still manage to be better than burrito pops.
