A burrito once tried to steal my truck. I ate the burrito.

Must have been one of those giant ones from Muchas Gracias.

And why am I reminded of a scene from Friday (or was it Next Friday)?

The culprit:

"Oh, Baxter, you are my little gentleman. I'll take you to foggy London town 'cause you are my little gentleman. Wow, this burrito is delicious, but it is filling."

when he reached for his burrito. . .

Aren't there rules against doing that while driving?

He tried to correct his line of travel and lost control, causing the load to shift and the truck and trailer to overturn

How many more Burritos must die????

Muchos Gracias is the best we have in our Coastal Area.

The Oregon Trail Burrito is a local fave.

I love to pour at least 4 red hot sauces on mine so it is a pull over watch the ocean and enjoy meal before getting back to driving.

The Breakfest burrito is awesome too but I am not a big fan of eggs.

Good if we are coming home from early in the a.m. from a long evening out.

Dang it, man! Don’t you know you should’nt be playing with your Burrito while driving?

You can grow hair on your fingers, get warts, or even go blind!

No man that drives a truck for a living should have “Lavern” for his middle name....period. Wayne, maybe - but never Lavern.

Uh, yeah. It’s totally coming at some point — a ban on eating while driving. I can see OR or WA starting it, or maybe VT will lead the way on this new legislation against DWE.

And sometimes a burrito is just a burrito.
