Is this a common problem? I’ve almost never had a burrito fall apart on me unless it outright rips–I once made the mistake of ordering a burrito in Scotland, and that was pretty formless, but it was also less a burrito and more an embarrassment hiding under an ill-fitting tortilla.
That’s easy for you to say, but some of us like burritos and live in Europe!
And yes, you CAN get good Mexican food here. Nowhere near as good as in the US near the border, of course, but MUCH better than in the worst US places for it like idunno, North Carolina or Alaska or some such 🤷
I know next to nothing about Hispanic food in general, but I’ve gotten a few food truck burritos in southern California and it opening was not on my list of concerns.
For me, I tend to overstuff my burrito innards. As a result, I’m not able to fold in the ends over the heaping pile of innards so this tape would actually help me get that coveted wrap action without making me address my lack of self control.

My general rule of thumb is that I don’t eat Mexican food in places where there aren’t many Mexican people.

Utah used to be partly in Mexico territory before the recent unpleasantness and it has many good Mexican restaurants.
Btw, I love that you apparently refer to the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe as “the recent unpleasantness” 😆
Shhh, don’t talk about the war!
I’ll try…
Ok, I guess I’ll change it then… How about North Carolina?
Yup, made that mistake once while living in Vermont many years ago. As someone who grew up in socal, it was brutal.
I bet you didn’t know the burrito was invented in America.
Not true. Small donkeys existed for millions of years before the United States 😛
I’ve got an urgent update about American demographics for ya…
Make Burrito Great Again
Mission style burritos aren’t particularly Mexican, though. But they also shouldn’t be particularly hard to eat.

bro just use two overlapping tortillas for a larger burrito
TWO tortillas!? In one burrito!??! This is forward thinking…
Or use bigger tortillas or make two smaller burritos for innards to tortillas ratio
That adds a lot of calories, of course…
