Yes, I have eaten them, do they sell em in Tescos and be lazy or can I do it properly, just fry a tortilla and will it come out like that??

It does sound very nice, I like stuffed roasted peppers, and its not far off that, they do like frying things as well, the Mexican cooks don;t they? Its nice food though, but it must be a bit lardy? Like Scotland, but hotter.

I shall do as you say, shall I have to walk the earth for any extended period as well? Its just that I have a birthday thing on the weekend in Dublin, so I might be a bit tied up, but I will certainly study the ways of the eternal Burrito, your words make much sense to me, I thank you.

Actually it's called a soft taco when you just fold a flour tortilla in half and eat like a taco.

It looks nice, but it looks messy as well, but this is all good information, I suppose you could eat them with a napkin or something, you know, thats probably what they do isn't it? Whats that Taco Bell place like, its kinda cheap init, what are the more upmarket chain-restaurant ones called? We don't really have Mexican take aways or restaurants here, except for a few quite nice ones dotted about the place, just Chinese, Indian, Thai, Italian, of varying quality from Rubbish to very good, French is best though if you ask me, (and we have chips and all that rubbish as well) all the same stuff really, but not Mexican, I don't know why, because its nice stuff, we just don't eat it as much, but then I don;t think you like Indian food in America as much as we do, this is all very educational you know. :-6

Whats that? Is that like Satsang? Because I get sidetracked when things get too zen sometimes (as I was saying to Tony Parsons one day), I get confused by all the infinities and the essential meaningless of the universe, but you know, its all good.

They never said anything about burritos though, so you have the drop on them there!

It's when they start popping out baby burritos that you have to worry.

Yes, creche fees for infant burritos are a national disgrace, as I told the social welfare office when applying for money to pay for my adventures in that direction. They were unimpressed.

I thank you, whoever you are, oh mysterious one (like the sea) your wise lore of the ways of the flap are greatly appreciated. :-6

Actually, G, if you've got kids, wrap the burrito like you would fold a diaper (but without the safety pins!). If none of the, er . . . stuff squeezes out, you are successful!!!

You have mixed the wrong metaphors, now I am not thinking of the universal tortilla flap, I am thinking about squishy baby poo wrapped in bread, and its flipping orrible.

hahahaha! That does project the wrong image, doesn't it? Well, if all else fails, go ahead and use the safety pins on your burrito!!!

Look closely at that last photo.

You'll notice one side tucked under the bottom flap and the top rolled.

I rest my case.

Again, I think this is going to need a forensic approach in order to determine where we are going with it. Like most food things, I have become fascinated with it, and spent last night dreaming of the great burrito in the sky and trying to communicate with it, I shall attempt to show my great respect for burritos by creating really well made ones. :-6

yes, although the size of the final flap depends on how thick your burrito is. :-6

why does that sound really dirty somehow.....

Step #1

Retain the [aluminum foil] to wrap around the base of the burrito and contain any mess that may leak out of the bottom.

Sorry, Gman, but every answer brings me back to the diaper thing!!!

Thats excellent advice from Wiki-how to maire, though we were kinda dealing with the "wrapping" bit at the moment, we haven't even made it to the "eating" stage yet unfortunatly, though it must all be kept in mind of course, when dealing with these issues and I will remember those important points next time.
