Corporate food has created unholy tasteless dry abominations called “tortillas”. They have convinced Americans that this is what tortillas are. They have played us for absolute fools.
Real tortillas are freshly made wet dough immediately squished and cooked before forming burrito. They are delicious and sticky enough to hold on their own. It’s perfect but not mass producible.

a properly constructed burrito is wrapped in aluminum foil and can be eaten, even while walking, without making a mess.
edible tape sounds like something with useful applications, but i am sad for the people who believe burritos require this.

A proper burrito stays closed without foil, a steamed tortilla should get sticky enough.

Wait…
It’s actually called Johns Hopkins? I thought it was John Hopkins and people were pluaralizing John in a weird attempt to be funny

Johns Hopkins University is named after the guy that funded it at the beginning, Johns Hopkins. He was named after his grandfather, Johns Hopkins, whose first name was his mother’s last name.
So Johns Hopkins has two last names, but one of them is a first name.

I wouldn’t have got the lettuce if I knew it wouldn’t fit Wouldn’t have got the cheese if I knew it wouldn’t fit Wouldn’t have got the peppers if I knew they wouldn’t fit I wouldn’t have got half of it Like, I’m okay with small mistakes If you’ve got no more chicken, I’ll take pork But I’ll blow my dad before I eat a burrito with a fork

Maybe they can use that tape to keep their mouth shut so none of us need to listen to them

This goes against the spirit of burrito eating. The mess is part of the fun.

I thought it said “invisible” tape, and I thought that was the dumbest idea ever.

Wow, I must be taking for granted the burrito jockeys in my city-- who has this problem?
Granted, that image looks like they were trying to make a burrito out of flat bread or some shit, does not look right.

I haven’t perfected the wrap, but I found toasting it slightly after wrapping holds it together and tastes better

I like to crisp up my burrito in a pan after I roll it. if you brown the side with the opening first then the juices trying to escape soften up the tortilla enough to get cooked together. It’s like welding a burrito shut.

I use a dash of cheese in the flap.
