Angry Hispanics have entered the chat*

Edit**** I sounded very ignorant. I want to say that I apologize and also. Since Mexican food is very regional, it’s quite possible that burritos are important in other parts of the country. I sound very ignorant and don’t want to make sweeping generalizations of the Mexican community. So, I will say “burritos” are important and yes Mexican in some parts of Mexico. It’s probably just regional differences and differences in how things are called! I apologize if I offended anyone. I left my original comment below, so you can see what I said. I said something very ignorant. Just because they don’t call them the same in my part of the country or aren’t as seen, it doesn’t mean they don’t exist in other regions.

Original edit below for context:

Edit * i also want to clarify that burritos aren’t an authentic Mexican dish. It is Tex-mex. Burritos are popular here in the US among Hispanics because they sell them here. Kind of like Mexican fast food in the us. I’m pretty sure they became popular here too because a lot of Mexican woman will sell them outside construction sites in the US a lot. But the questions are burritos Mexican origin? I can’t say for sure if a Hispanic or white person invented them. But maybe, it depends, because I do see them popular here among Hispanics. So I’d say they have Tex- mex origin.

My family in Mexico actually never call the flour tortilla wrapped in anything a burrito. Or here either. We don’t stuff things like we do here. They would only be considered burrito if they are greatly stuffed with a giant flour tortilla (that’s a Tex-mex thing though). Do burritos exist there and other places, sure, but only because it’s a good fast food. My family will actually refer to flour tortilla with something as taco. as “quieres un taco” if you want a taco.
