What would be the worst ingredients to fill a burrito with ?

[John VN]

Brussels Sprouts

 

[DietCoke18]

Lettuce!! Hot lettuce. Just no

 

[slpeters]

If we're limiting ourselves to things we've actually been served in a burrito, I would go with shrimp. I was not a fan.

 

[willowsnn3]

Beans & rice.

 

[nuclearturtle]

Mushrooms, Cauliflower, Squash.........

 

[MrsPete]

Bees. Definitely bees.

2nd worst: Whatever Jack-in-the-Box puts in their tacos. Seriously, I went there once for free taco day, and it was the worst taco experience of my life.

That actually sounds good. I've overdue for a liver dinner.

And liver is exactly what I had for dinner last night. I have posted this before, but my wife hates liver, and has been horrified that the restaurants that offer it have said it is their best selling entree because it is not uncommon for one spouse to like it and another to hate it, so the only place they can get liver is at a restaurant. It is apparently the number one comfort food.

That's just something they say. They offer it because it is a huge money maker because liver is so cheap.

Balut.

Brussels Sprouts

OMG I would love a Brussels sprouts burrito, with some shaved parmesan and sautéed in balsamic vinegar until crispy...

Let me suggest a more obvious version of your post.

 

[fly girl]

Polenta, quinoa

(2 overrated foods that I can do without.)

That's half the story. It wouldn't stay on the menu if people didn't order it.

Rice. I just don't like it as a filler, even in taco salads, etc. Also, Taco Bell used to have a burrito with potatoes, which I also didn't like as a filler.

Which is interesting because potatoes are the norm in burritos in Mexico.

Beans, why do you people do that

My very favorite fast food is a bean burrito with extra beans and extra onions from Taco Bell. I doubt there is any Michelin 3 star restaurant on this earth that can match the heavenly deliciousness of a bean burrito from Taco Bell-perfection. I wish I could shake hands with the culinary genius that developed it. He must have worked on it his entire life!

If I wasn’t 5000 miles from the nearest Taco Bell I would go for one right now.

I'm sure -- it's just personal preference.

No. It's 9/10 of the story. If liver cost as much as ribeye, it wouldn't be offered. It isn't even remotely the most popular item. And once the early bird crowd dies off, liver will go the way of aspic (fancy word for savory jello mold)

Actually, that makes a lot of sense - it doesn't surprise me at all that people won't make it at home!

Something that leaks. A properly made burrito shouldn't leak.
