The story of the burrito is one literally wrapped in mystery.
The roots of the burrito may go back as early as 10,000 B.C., when using corn tortillas to wrap foods was a common practice among the Mesoamerican cultures living in the region that is known as Mexico today.
Although, some say the burrito as we know it, may have first appeared in the writings by Cuban writer Félix Ramos y Duarte, who described it as a rolled tortilla filled with meat or other ingredients.
Other burrito scholars believe the burrito may not have been invented until the early 20th century.
The more modern theory is that the inventor of the burrito was a man named Juan Méndez, who sold tacos in the city of Ciudad Juárez during the Mexican Revolution, between 1910-1920.
Méndez rode around on a donkey, and wrapped the food in large flour tortillas to keep it warm.
The “food of the donkey” became very popular and earned the ingenious invention the name “burrito” (“little donkey” in Spanish).
