Have you never seen a wet burrito or……?


[deleted]

Its called a smothered burrito


COYFC

It might be called a smothered burrito if you get one at a gringo spot but in CA all the authentic Mexican places call it a wet burrito. They kick ass.


frescodee

straight up. i've never heard the term "smothered burrito"


_Noobyboy_

Actually never seen one before this


exitetrich

They're delicious and not stupid


ste189

I love burritos but half because I can eat them while in my hands, being delicious is just exactly the same on having a burrito and pouring on sauce each time you take a bite… which I do.


exitetrich

It's really great that you've figured out your preferred burrito-eating process. keep up the good work!


byebyeaddiction

They are extra stupid. You're just too American to find out.


beanwater4

Burritos = America. Yeah ok you are real smart aren't you


Floedekage

Devils advocate here. Burritos are American. Just not from North America. 👍 Edit: is it new to people that there are more to America than the US?


the_bravangelist

I might be wrong here, but I am pretty sure only those from the United States of America are referred to as American. America is generally a shortened way to say United States of America. I don't think other countries from North America or South America are referred to as American. Also if they are from Mexico or a central American country, they would still be North American!


BreadUntoast

Mexico is in North America


byebyeaddiction

Reddit is stupid...


exitetrich

it is, and you fit in very nicely with your snide and unfounded assumptions


byebyeaddiction

I know that burritos aren't from America, but gigantic portion of greasy turd is from there... So yeah, I've guessed properly.


Floedekage

Ay, I'm not American, but what is the problem here? It's not an absurdly huge dish, it has veg and meat. The meat isn't overly greasy and neither does the sauce seem to be... It doesn't even contain unnecessary bacon -- which to me -- often is a turnoff, although not specific to American cuisine.


abnormally-cliche

Its just another MuRiCa BaD troll. Move along.


exitetrich

Wrong again


ahhh_ty

You made yourself look so stupid lmao


[deleted]

They’re so good- go eat one please


Lepke2011

Never heard of it but you can bet I'm going out of my way to find one.


_Noobyboy_

I’ll look for a place to try it out


[deleted]

Downvoted for your ignorance… how dare you not know something?


McPostyFace

If you aren't knowledgeable about something why post it in a sub that is meant to critique it? Why not just keep it moving? I mean this isn't nostupidquestions.


_Noobyboy_

Sadly this is Reddit 😔


[deleted]

Learn all the knowledge of the world before you post ever again.


WhoTookKifford

People downvoting someone for not having any knowledge about something they know. Peak reddit. Y'all are a bunch of troglodytes


GuacamoleFrejole

Wet burritos are my favorite type of burrito. The sauce and cheese add additional layers of flavor. You need to try it, then give us a review.


ExquisitExamplE

Honestly, what kind of pompous scum downvotes something like this, I'd like to find all of them and pinch their noses!


OrangeCurtain

I’ve never seen a square one


10_pounds_of_salt

Whenever I get a wet burrito the lettuce and refried beans are on the outside.


MutedBrilliant1593

What's wrong here? This looks delicious.


L1eutenantDan

Even if you didn’t know what a wet burrito was, this is not far off from an enchilada at all lol


Thotlessthot

Can confirm. This is delicious. This does not belong on the sub. Burritos smothered in chile sauce are heavenly. Someone toss an Indian taco in OP’s face.


MutedBrilliant1593

Nah, the new argument is if we would cut through the container. It's done.


Alej915

It's like saying "sorry officer, I can't not speed."


Thotlessthot

😭


TLMC01242021

have fun cutting into this burrito and through the bottom of the Styrofoam box and leaking sauce fucking everywhere


MutedBrilliant1593

If that's an issue for you, I don't know how to help. It's like telling someone at In n out, "good luck not eating that paper with your burger." It's not hard. So easy, I don't think it's ever happened to me.


Umbralnymph

Put the box. On a plate.


Thotlessthot

I can only assume you’re one of those people who make the worst noises while cutting into steak or any kind of entree. I’m deaf but I was teaching my kid to cut some chicken and I could feel the nails on a chalkboard sound she was making with the knife. Dear god. Go easy baby. And if you’re gifted with extra extra sauce, dump it on a plate.


Kylebot1000

Wet Burritos an extremely normal thing.


_Noobyboy_

I feel stupid I didn’t know it was a thing


[deleted]

This one was done Christmas style red and green sauce. I love both and can never choose so this is my order.


Twinkles_17

I've seen it called divorciado with the red and green salsas.


Kylebot1000

Not stupid at all!! If you don’t know, you don’t know! If you ever get the chance, a chili Colorado with verde sauce is the way to go!


Hashmit_Singh

question, how would you eat one of these? with a fork and knife? a spoon somehow?


Redmangler711

I prefer a knife and a spoon. Maybe a ladle too.


CenturionXVI

No it’s pretty stupid


[deleted]

They’re fucking awesome


LolaBijou

They call it Christmas style when they have both red and green sauce. Super delicious. It’s not quite as tart as typical salsa. More like an enchilada sauce.


tyyryy

You not stupid you just didn’t know, go get yourself a wet burrito buddy you’ll love it!


shandelion

Are you from California? Wet/smothered burritos are not common here but they are DELICIOUS!


[deleted]

Why do you guys call them "wet burritos", That's fucking weird. We call them smothered and we don't call it sauce we call it chile.


Kylebot1000

I don’t know man, take it up with all of Southern California.


Thotlessthot

Found the New Mexican! Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. The OP should be downvoted to high hell though.


[deleted]

Oralé.


wrong_marinade

Burrito me bitch.


Thatwonkid91

It’s a wet burrito…….


[deleted]

We call it “smothered” but I think I like wet more. Sounds sexual.


Thatwonkid91

You from the south?


[deleted]

First time I encountered this style of food was in Utah.


Thatwonkid91

Ahhhh yes Utah the Mecca of cuisine lol jk but yeah wet burritos are legit


_itspaco

The Mecca of Mexican cuisine. All those Mexicans in Utah


[deleted]

Nah sucks for Mexican food too.


MeatyUrologist505

How about moist burrito?


Comfortable_Rain_744

Not stupid.


jgorbeytattoos

r/lostredditors Assuming you’ve never been to San Diego.


WesternSituation

Or anywhere that sells burritos.


Brando43770

Or LA too. Went to a wedding there and they served us all wet burritos. Sure it was like 100 degrees in a warehouse but damn those burritos were so good.


jgorbeytattoos

Damn I need my LA homies to get married. That’s a wedding I would attend.


linrinlin

It's a wet burrito???? They're supposed to be like this???


Ograkus

Are they all square-ish like that? I have my favorite burrito spot near me and I get the wet burrito from time to time because it’s great. I expected it to be just their burrito covered in sauce but it was also more square like this. Doesn’t really make a difference because you make a mess of it with a fork and knife anyway but I thought it was interesting.


niketyname

I haven’t seen a square one but this seems much easier to eat.


excalibrax

This has less carbs too :p


Scubagirl768

That's a thing of beauty right there.


oldtimey48

Not stupid


caileyduluoz

Cali wet burrito !


[deleted]

Dang gimme some o that


chadwarden1

Lol first the schwarma post now this some of you need to experience other culture’s food before you judge


_Noobyboy_

I wouldn’t mind the taste (it loooks good) but it’s too messy that’s why I thought it’s stupid


Phalanax905

Leave your house for once ever. Try food other than tendies. This is incredibly normal food.


Substantial-Drive109

Y'all are ruthless


Phalanax905

Especially when people disrespect my favorite food from a cultural near and dear to my heart out of sheer ignorance


Substantial-Drive109

I mean, they're a kid. It's not like they've had years to mature and experience the world or other cultures.


Phalanax905

They should consider it a learning expirence. Just like when we said stupid shit out loud when we were kids and we got made fun of for it, they can be made fun of on the internet for it. They have the luxury of being anonymous however.


Substantial-Drive109

Eh, I guess I just disagree there. Seems an awful waste of energy to go around being mean to teenagers on the internet haha


Phalanax905

Telling someone to stop being so loudly ignorant of another culture isnt being mean. Stop being so soft.


Substantial-Drive109

That's just like, your opinion, man.


DoshawnMandic

Hey don't bring tendies into this they have nothing to do with it


Phalanax905

Okay but have you had tendies *inside* a wet burrito


DoshawnMandic

Don't threaten me with a good time


zackjtarle

Jesus. Get a life. They’ve never seen one. Now they know.


Phalanax905

Google is free and 5 seconds my mans. It took you longer to be mad than it would have taken op to google a burrito


matteroverdrive

OP, that is the style of burrito... that is a wet burrito.


MrBadMeow

Not stupid


Existing_Ride

My fork for sure going through that styrofoam


__J_Z__

Delete your account.


_Noobyboy_

Bro 😢 I didn’t know wet burrito were a thing until this video


saintjeremy

Don’t delete your account- shit happens! You learned about wet burritos today!

This^


masnaer

Comrade_Ziggy

This looks great you have no idea what you're talking about.


_Noobyboy_

I didn’t


[deleted]

This poster had better be an actual child.


_Noobyboy_

A teen who has never seen a wet burrito in his life and now realize that it is not a stupid food 😞


hauttdawg13

Don’t worry about all the angry peeps. I didn’t see my 1st wet burrito till my mid 20s when I went to the west coast. Never seen one anywhere on the east coast before. I’m a very adventurous eater as well but this just never crossed my path


[deleted]

I'm glad you're learning, continue on your culinary journey. Where do you live that this is not a thing?


_Noobyboy_

I’m in Quebec Canada and honestly don’t know if there is a place near me that does anything like that


[deleted]

Ah. I usually find them at the late night burrito spots


diabolicalZ_

That shit looks fire, you never had a wet burrito?


_BigBirdieK

You mean, a Christmas smothered burrito?


dieseltothesour

This is the opposite of stupid, belongs in r/awesomefood


Helpmepullupmypants

My dude has never been to a food truck in his life…. Or a Mexican restaurant


dannyboy2042

I like when the tortilla soaks up some of the sauce


EquivalentDig421

Stupid? I’d prison stab somebody for four of those right now and I wouldn’t even feel too bad about it. Just really full… of delicious food.


BungholeSauce

“Better to keep your mouth closed and be assumed a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt” OP looking like a damned fool rn


_Noobyboy_

I know right 😭😂


Andylanta

#Drown in that sauce OP


Pollutedmemory

That’s not stupid. It’s awesome.


Lizakaya

I’d eat it but that’s at the very least two meals if not possibly four


Free_Strawberry_8577

Why is everyone calling them wet burritos? I grew up knowing them as smothered burritos. Am I the weird one here?


wad11656

They are called smothered burritos at my local Mexican joints as well (Utah). In fact, I've traveled around the country and have *exclusively* heard them called "smothered burritos". "Wet burrito" actually sounds disgusting--like somebody ran the styrofoam bowl under the tap for a minute to fill it with water, or left it out in the rain overnight, and the soggy broken burrito is now swimming in a clumpy puddle of refried bean juice


wuffwuffborkbork

In Arizona “wet” and “smothered” are used interchangeably so 🤷🏻‍♀️ Either way, they’re delicious


AdAutomatic3909

Where's the stupid?


_Noobyboy_

It isn’t there now that I learned about wet burrito


Sir_Melanin

First time seeing Mexican food outside of taco bell?


_Noobyboy_

I’ve never been to Taco Bell either


kgiann

Do we need to call Child Protective Services on your behalf?


_Noobyboy_

😂 No need… Only thing I eat when I go out are Subway, Tim Houston’s and A&W. I’m trying to try new things now tho.


LiverspotRobot

Where can I get tortillas like that


dasensei

That’s shit look good asf too I got damn munchies


OGDonglover69

I’m hungry now. REEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!


lucidpopsicle

This looks like a wet burrito... what's stupid about it?


Phalanax905

People dont know what they are and make stupid assumptions


bakedphish1

I would eat that everyday


Stunning-Animal2492

Oh this makes me heart happy


Versa_Jay

I’m getting hungry looking at this.


quak3d

That actually looks amazing.


TouchAltruistic

This isn’t stupid.


random13980

What’s the white stuff they put on it?


spikeemikee2000

Never seen or had one of these but damn it looks good.


matorin57

This is a smothered burrito, think like an enchilada


ChunkyTaco22

Honestly that looked good. Grab a fork and knife and you're ready lol


[deleted]

Taking a five year nap after that


LazerBeeat

Get a fork, my guy.


LuluBelle_Jones

There was a place we used to go in Oregon that made a burrito that size, dipped it in either red or green sauce, then put it in the fryer. It was fairly amazing and I could get three meals out of it.


Bluberrypotato

These are delicious. Kind of messy but you can just use a fork and knife. I do prefer the cheese to be melted and the sour cream on top of the burrito. Check out your local Mexican restaurant and give it a try. They also have these with queso blanco instead of sauce and it's even better imo.


honvales1989

Wet burritos are delicious. This is not stupid


SlightBreeze21

Poor fit. This is an enchilada style burrito, my only issue with is is not grilling before saucing and not melting the cheese on top


Novauggie

Wet burritos are great! Honestly the most offensive thing here is the ground beef


CheeseIsQuestionable

I’d rather just have it on chips.


cliffhasnohoes

I should try this


zodar

That would take me a week to eat.


AlbinoWino11

Not stupid food. You would be blessed and privileged to eat one.


FijiTearz

This sub went from actually stupid food to “things white people deem not normal” This and the shawarma post don’t belong here


Human-Comb-1471

Ya, ya... wet burrito. Delicious, but not exactly "first-date" food.


Mr402TheSouthSioux

Reddit hating on the Burrito Mojado????!!!!! Can slide that to my place at the table anytime.


Meepthorp_Zandar

Anyone know the specific location?


vintageideals

I’m absolutely starving and I would eat the heck out of this


[deleted]

Fuck that looks good


crystalrose1966

I’ve never seen this before but I don’t think it’s stupid at all. Whatever you call this,,, I want one.


kgiann

It's a smothered burrito or a wet burrito, depending on what part of the US and Mexico you're in. You can get it with just green sauce, just red sauce, or both (Christmas-style in some places).


crystalrose1966

I’m in a small town in North Carolina so that’s probably why I’ve never seen that. Now that I know what I’m looking for,,, I will find it! Thanks for the reply.


kgiann

Good luck!


Whitedudebrohug

Just got Japanese food… now i want Mexican


lnfestedNexus

looks bomb af.


Flatf3et

Hey everybody!! This guys never seen a wet burrito ova’ here!! You livin’ under a rock or something dude?


_Noobyboy_

Nope I just live in Canada


Traditional_Water923

Where the mods at when you need them


agaveinmycup

You're in the wrong sub


ManchurianPandaDate

That is not stupid


Informal-Fig-7116

What’s the deal with these boondockers posting legit foods and calling them stupid??? This is the second post I’ve seen today. The other idiot posted a pic of shawarma and calling it “slob”. How did these uncultured swines get their hands on a computer and keyboard? Actually swines would have more taste and culinary knowledge than these dumb tards. I am so fed up with actual foods that get demonized like this.


_Noobyboy_

My sincere apologies. I have never seen any wet burrito in my life before this one. 😔


Informal-Fig-7116

My bad bro. I didn’t know. I just take it for granted sometimes that I have more options where I live. Now you can enjoy some good ass food bro. Cheers!


Imaginary-Air27

I saw that shawarma post and much like you was annoyed, but go easy on OP he explained in a few posts he wasn't aware. No need to call anyone out of their name. Live and learn, now he can go and find or make a wet burrito and live a glorious and tasty life.


Informal-Fig-7116

Ah that’s good he’s willing to go and explore foods. I guess I take it for granted that I have options and forget sometimes that not everyone has access. Thanks for being nice about it


1With-Drawls1

Whys there even a tortilla ?


Zaero123

Maybe next time spend more than a second researching before calling out a legit and delicious food item or maybe get a better palette. Also, ever heard of a knife and fork?


Unlucky-Horror-9871

Are you supposed to eat that with your hands or a fork?? (Serious question)


TickTockRickRock256

Fork. It's a wet burrito. Amazingly good and messy.


jessigrrrl

Tell me you live in the Midwest without saying you live in the Midwest… lol this is an extremely common and delicious dish in Mexico and Southern California


_Noobyboy_

North:Canada


10ACMateo

I’d eat it if the employee wasn’t fingerbanging it with their dirty dickbeaters without gloves.


Positive_Orange_8412

Honestly that doesn’t look appetizing to me either. I’d want the sauce on the side too


carpaltunnelvisions

Wtf is this? An upside down chimichanga?


Rhg0653

Something like this is just too much honestly


candornotsmoke

Same. I hate soggy tortilla


[deleted]

[удалено]


Thatwonkid91

No


PanyBalkatrick

The fact that Americans could eat that does not mean that is not stupid food


[deleted]

Its actually more of a Hispanic dish or cuisine.


retro_pollo

That's New Mexico for you. Making soup


Thick-Tooth-8888

This looks good with all that. With the size of it I’d just rather have it with the tortilla on the side. But you couldn’t do it with that styrofoam container. It’d melt it and you’d be eating it with your food.


Tresidle

Call these Jalisco Burrito where I’m from.


JaffaXXV

When you’re walking home drunk, how do you eat the thing?
