Damn You Burrito!

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, which for some inexplicable reason was moved to May 1st this year, I plan to eat a burrito.

I love burritos. Did you know that the burrito was invented in San Francisco? Really. The restaurant that made the first burrito is still there. I used to eat there a lot. I can't remember the name of the place but they do make awesome burritos.

I also highly recommend the new McDonald's-owned place called Chipotle. Fantastic burritos there. It's a chain, so one should be popping up near you very soon. There's one in Sacramento, which always has a long line.

Today, when you say the word "burrito," say it like Carlos Mencia in this video. Roll your r's in solidarity with today's festivities. Or just for the heck of it, because it's fun to do. Say "Damn you burrito!"

Chipotle is owned by McDonald's? I had no idea, but yeah, love that place.

Hey, I don't know if you were directing us to the "Carlos On Immigration" link. Regardless, I'd suggest everybody watch this. He provides some much needed common sense regarding the stupidity and disrespect of bringing Mexican and other flags to immigration rallies. Brilliant bit of analysis from a very funny - and very politically incorrect - comedian.

WOW there are so many good mexican and tex-mex resturants here in Houston, I have to lay off, I am getting as big as a barn.
Funny thing, Mex food is mostly just a little meat, some corn flour, some chillies, cheese, tomatoes and beans. Its really peasant food, but damm its good.

Didn't know burritos were invented in SF, but, if so, I would guess El Faro in the Mission is the place, the first place I ever had one. Still love them (w/guac and sour cream, naturally).

Happy Cinco de Uno!

McDonalds is spinning Chipotle out. Perhaps you can buy it and become the Ray Kroc of Burritoville?
