Nah, that's OK. I'm punchy, on the verge of tears, exhausted, stuffy, and hungry all at the same time. I'm lucky I can still type.

Oh, shit. The embarrassment of an old thread coming back to haunt me. Hopefully I've gotten less douchetastic in the two years since.

Or, who the hell makes a breakfast burrito that requires a knife and fork?

Trust me, if I'd tried to bring that whole thing to my mouth with my hands I likely would've missed my face altogether. Much better to bring small pieces of it up at a time. I reiterate that we had just stumbled drunkenly out of a stripclub.

I eat a homemade breakfast burrito at least 4 times a week, sometimes I use a pita instead of a tortilla, I'm not sure if that'd still be considered a burrito but it's damn good.
Eggs, crumpled turkey sausage or bacon or burger or chili, tons of cheese and beans, corn, rice, fried potatoes, sour cream, salsa.
That's breakfast and lunch right there.

On a recent episode of America's Test Kitchen, they microwaved the potatoes before going into a skillet for a fast and tasty potatoes lyonnaise. The idea is just to get them cooked on the inside before dealing with the texture and flavor of the outside.

I've tried it since, and it does get the job done.

So very not crap.

What about an English breakfast burrito? How's that for cosmopolitan?
