You can make excellent wraps at home, the secret is Mayonnaise!
I make my own, many flavors, (Smoked Paprika and Garlic tastes like BBQ Potato Chips) Really good Fat (Avocado or Olive Oil) super easy to make.
We don’t have In-N-Out around here but Whataburger does a fair Wrap

That was the Wrong Link!
The Correct one is from Discovery Channel and it appears that they have pulled it and now Sell it...
Bootleg copies have crappy sound and break it up into 3 parts but from my short peruse may still be watchable for those that are not accustomed to the High Quality Original.
(Thanksgiving is not going to be the same unless Discovery Channel lets this Masterpiece go back to Public Domain)
The Aquatic Ape.
I have the book. Fascinating. Sure, it might be complete nonsense, but it was fascinating stuff.

There’s a good selection of videos on youtube also, if you search “aquatic ape.”
Some sacrifices must be made.
most of us won’t have to worry about this but-
“A body fat percentage below 5 percent is regarded as a warning sign of poor health, even in elite athletes,” says Georgie Fear, R.D...”

A few of those under-5%ers got drafted fairly high in the NBA last week.
The first that I remember hearing of low body fat being dangerous was regarding a USC Trojan running back in the 1970s named Ricky Bell.
I had a buddy who worked in the clinic that served USC’s athletic department. It had a hydrostatic dip tank that measured body fat and IIRC Bell set the record for lowest % that they had ever recorded.
Bell went on to an NFL career, but fell ill and died very young at age 29. The reports were that his illness was connected to his extremely low percentage of body fat.
Extremes of most things are bad somehow, I guess.
But extremely low body fat is not something I personally have had to worry about!
(And I understand a bit of a reserve is good when fighting certain diseases, such as cancer.)
In March 1982, McKay sent him to the San Diego Chargers, but suffering from weight loss, aching muscles, and severe skin problems, he retired before the 1983 season.[3]
Death[edit]
Bell died at age 29 of heart failure caused by the disease of dermatomyositis.[1][2][3][4] Mario Van Peebles portrayed the player in the 1991 made-for-television movie, A Triumph of the Heart: The Ricky Bell Story, which was based on the life of Ricky Bell. Bell’s remains were interred in the Inglewood Park Cemetery in Inglewood, California.
He was survived by his wife, Natalia; his 10-year-old son, Ricky, Jr., a 3-year-old daughter, Noell, and his mother, Ruth.
The opera singer Maria Callas (1923–1977) suffered from dermatomyositis from 1975 until her death.[25]
The actor Laurence Olivier (1907–1989) suffered from dermatomyositis from 1974 until his death.[26]
The American football running back Ricky Bell (1955–1984), the runner-up for the Heisman Trophy in 1976, and the number-one choice in the NFL draft in 1977, died at the age of 29 from heart failure caused by this disease.[27]
Rob Buckman (1948–2011) a doctor, comedian, author, and the president of the Humanist Association of Canada.[28][29]
Yeah, most of us don’t need to worry about too little body fat.
The plus side is that fat does give you energy reserves if you come down with serious illness. But too much and you will likely be suffering from cardiovascular issues. Moderation in everything-
That’s the right Ricky Bell. That dermatomyositis is a brutal disease.
