    Mind blown....
    My mexican friend told me she never had burrito in Mexico. It's not a thing there. I need to take her to chipotle to teach her her culture(jk)

    Is burrito American invention? Lol

    • burritos are more "tex-mex", not a thing really in Mexico City for example :)rzu-rzu
    • Surely gotta be same kind of thing as the westernised food chinese takeaways do. No one in china eats sweet n sour chicken or lemon chicken.microkorg
    • WHAT! Next you’ll be telling me that Mexico dosen’t have the Spicy Doritos Gordita Crunch Fries!!!nb
    • Pizza in Italy is made to please the US tourists, they think the "regular" pizza is how pizza is made by no, pizza pizza is not regular pizza!grafician
    • Next you'll tell us you had no idea real tacos aren't made from pre-formed dried yellow corn chi ... err, 'tortillas'.Continuity
    • NB. I don't even know what that is. Lol I don't buy snacks muchpango
    • grafican. that i know.
      continuity. im genuinely surprised by burrito lol
      pango
    • Traditional American cuisine doesn’t include the Big Mac Snack Wrap. It’s called innovation look it upnb
    • “Burrito” implies the existence of a larger, more ominous, “El Burro”scarabin
    • y, I can't imagine mexicans eating those monster burritos that americans eat.Beeswax
    • lol scarabinNairn
    • Some regions do have traditional burritos, but they're smaller and just beans and a meat. What Americans know as a burrito is Mission-style, massive and loaded.garbage
    • Mission-style referring to the Mission district of San Francisco, and has absolutely no relation to Mexico, garbage.monospaced
    • In Mexico, if it's wrapped in a tortilla, it's just a taco, and even those aren't as ubiquitous as one might think. I've spent LOTS of time in Mexico.monospaced
    • No idea what you're on about, because I literally typed "What Americans know as a burrito is Mission-style". Big fucking duh it's from California.garbage
    • And burritos absolutely are a thing in Mexico. My best friend growing up was a first-gen immigrant from Mexicali BC, and I spent LOTS of time at their house.garbage
    • It's regional, and Vieja would definitely say your take is myopic, then she'd probably smack you with a wooden spoon, then serve a simple, delicious burrito.garbage
    • Or make you kill one of the chickens in the yard for pozole verde. Just saying you're not right on this one.garbage

    • ^ lol pangz, save your popcorn for the real drama maniacs. Mono was just wrong, Mexican burritos are a thing, originating in the northern states.garbage
    • lol well what you said could be true. my friend is from Xalapa. but at the same time, i dont know much about mexican culture. you can say anything lolpango
    • Oh Xalapa is far south, so understandable. Most of my childhood friends that I played soccer with were from border states (BC, Coahilua, Sonora, Chihuaha)garbage
    • and I say soccer with a big tee hee to my childhood friends.garbage
