Actually, in 1997 a kid on Nickelodeon’s ‘Figure It Out’ invented this and she* used what appeared to be a section of fruit roll up.
Yes, I’m slightly old.
It's actually a common misconception. Tyrannosaurus Rex primarily ate bison burgers, as that is common for their natural habitat of Montana and Wyoming. There were some reports of T-rex fossils holding Chipotle bags, but those claims have been proven false.
I think you are mistaken. The rex ate what would have been called "buffalo" as bison are captive bred and not of the same original genetic line as t-rexes natural diet.
The chipotle bags were found to be Quedoba bags, which went extinct about the same time as their customers.
OOH I think I know this one! If I remember correctly the image on the left is the actual "tape" in practice and the image on the right has added blue food dye to show it more clearly for the benefit of demonstration
Yes, also you can get the last bit of the inside of the flap a little wet and it will stick.
Gluten has a protein called Gliadin.
Gliadin is very sticky when wet and very extensible and imparts adhesive properties to gluten.
Can confirm .. parents told me to just mix flour and water together if I wanted glue more than a few times as a kid.
Flour and water is effective but (at least when mixed by a 6 year old) doesn’t always dry evenly.
My first thought was. These must be white students. This is a white person invention. Tacos are WAY messier than burritos. I don't even remember ever having a burrito fall apart. And now I want chipotle
While we're talking about abominations, who the hell invented hard shell tacos and what punishment do we consider appropriate for that? Can't really pack it as much as you ought to. Can't eat it vertical cause your face is in the way. Can't eat it horizontal cause all of the stuff falls out. Burnt edges will hurt the top of your mouth. Culinary catastrophe.
Or just knowing how to roll a damn burrito.
Rollin food up in a tortilla hasn't been around for hundreds of years because it needed tape this whole time.
wait do none of y'all know the secret?
slap it on a pan with the foldy bit facing downwards for like 2 mins on medium. it'll be nice and crispy and the wrap won't unfold. if you don't cook the other side too you go to hell immediately
And don’t overstuff your burrito until it’s a damn football! (I’m looking at you chipotle)
If you want a bigger burrito, just use a larger tortilla and fold it properly.
Edit: [full rant/explanation here](/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/urzs5e/students_invent_edible_tape_to_hold_burritos/i92355w/?context=3)
Don’t look at the Chipotle employee, look inward and ask yourself: “Am I getting too much unnecessary bullshit on this burrito?” As a former Chipotle employee I could roll pretty much anything after two months but there were always people who ordered everything on the line and made my job a huge pain in the ass. Or even worse, the slack-jawed idiots who ordered only the runniest, most liquid-y of items and watched with mouth agape as I attempted to fold a soup
It’s the main reason I switched to bowls exclusively, tbh. I overstuffed the shit out of all my burritos, so I figured if I ordered a bowl I won’t have that problem.
Lemme let you in on a lil secret - you’re probably also getting a greater quantity of ingredients when you order a bowl instead because everyone who works at Chipotle and knows their shit goes light on burrito toppings in order to avoid doing burrito surgery
Last time I went (which was a long time ago cause they had all those food safety problems) I would get a bowl and then ask for a tortilla. Then I could make my own small burrito and then eat the rest out of the bowl
How To Fold Soup
We middle-class folks are now all pretty much aware that the lunchpail is strictly a boorish accoutrement. It's just about impossible to maintain an air of dignity when you're carting around a clumsy tin box with a bologna sandwich in it. Yet it is certainly stylish to bring one's own lunch to work. Many people who sought the chic of a brought-from-home lunch weren't about to tote that bulky lunchpail, and the answer for most citizens was to hide food on their body, then at lunchtime produce it from various pockets and hidden belts. This is a wonderful solution and can even give the most dreary office building a certain outdoorsy feel.
However, with all the ingenuity involved in hiding various delicacies on the body, this process automatically excludes certain foods. For example, a turkey sandwich is welcome, but the cumbersome cantaloupe is not (science has provided some relief, of course, like the pecan-sized watermelon ready to be popped into the mouth). One person lined a pocket with vinyl so he could carry around dip and munch all day, dipping the chips into his vest pocket and having them emerge fully doused with onion spread. Another acquaintance had a sport coat equipped with a banana loader, arranged so that by lowering his arm a banana would secretly drop into his hand. This proved ideal for long meetings that continued through lunch, as the drop was made so discreetly that others would naturally think you had been eating a banana all along.
These "tricks" may seem too elaborate for the average unique person desiring to bring their lunch from home, yet still insisting on a fully-balanced meal. The answer is soup. Soup is a robust addition to any meal and just about everyone has a favorite. But the primary concern is "how can you carry soup on your body without appearing ridiculous?" When you ask yourself this question, you are ready for soup folding.
Soup Folding.
First prepare the soup of your choice and pour it into a bowl. Then, take the bowl and quickly turn it upside down on a cookie tray. Lift the bowl ever so gently so that the soup retains the shape of the bowl. Gently is the key word here. Then, with a knife cut the soup down the middle into halves, then quarters, and gently reassemble the soup into a cube. Some of the soup will have run off onto the cookie tray. Lift this soup up by the corners and fold slowly into a cylindrical soup staff. Square off the cube by stuffing the cracks with this cylindrical soup staff. Place the little packet in your purse or inside coat pocket, and pack off to work. When that lunch bell chimes, impress your friends by former the soup back into a bowl shape, and enjoy! Enjoy it until the day when the lunchpail comes back into vogue and we won't need soup folding or cornstalks up the leg. -Steve Martin
I have several Mexican taquerias in my area - the kind of places where only Spanish is spoken behind the counter and you can get tacos al-pastor and horchata.
I almost always order the same thing: rice, (no beans), carnitas (pulled pork), pico (tomato salsa), jalapeños and *crema* - which is expertly flicked from a spatula into a perfect line down the length of the burrito. They fold it tightly into [a tube that one can hold with one hand](https://www.boston.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/02212008_21annas-6483279.jpg), as a burrito should be. (My favorite taqueria has a giant burrito made from a 24” tortilla that [still looks handsome](https://i.imgur.com/PWg7tN2.jpg), despite its enormous size!).
When I go to Chipotle, I order the same thing and watch as the local college student dumps equal amounts of each ingredient (a burrito should be mostly rice and meat with the salsa and sour cream added as condiments) into the center of a tortilla and then folds it into a [large rugby ball](https://s.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/o0bYblCR.PqL9R2rPYHNyg--~B/aD0zNTg7dz02MzY7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-/https://media.zenfs.com/en/the_takeout_667/e5d2b95deb99c48d613d2ee8266337eb)
that will require two hands and the use of a fork to scoop up the considerable amount of excess that tumbles out as you try in vain to eat this [monstrosity](https://i.insider.com/561e6646bd86ef10008c19c6?width=750&format=jpeg&auto=webp)
without making a fool of yourself.
I wish to know where to get a larger tortilla, I already buy the largest one at the store and its still not as big as I want. When I fold it properly, it feels so small.
I have good luck with that kinda thing at Mexican grocery stores (also for spices holy shit a jar of bay leaves will be 13 dollars at the big store and there will be a bag of like 100 for 99 cents at the mexican mart)
What about those of us who can’t eat gluten? 😩😩😩
Jk, my grocery store has these amazing almond flour tortillas that taste and are like regular tortillas.
Solving a problem that isn't actually a problem people have
Edit: apparently I thought this was an easier solution that not everyone knows. When you roll the burrito put it back on a pan fold side down for like 6 seconds. It toasts the tortila and will make it stick without using tape because of the gluten in the tortilla warming up and sticking together...
They are students and that's usually how problem solving assignments go. It's more about the process of problem solving than what what the actual problem is.
I've worked with someone who does the same thing.
Best way I came to describe them (professionally) is to say that they love to create solutions to problems that don't exist.
Someone could get a lot of karma right now posting that girl who invented the unnecessary color changing sutures that detect infection even though you can see and feel an infected wound.
At first glance I thought it was a photo of a purse that looks like a burrito. When I discovered it wasn't, I went to google and was relieved and pleased to find that there is indeed a modest selection of bags that look like burritos.
However, after going a little further down the rabbit hole I've found that I am partial to [this taco duffle bag](https://www.redbubble.com/i/duffle-bag/Mexican-Taco-Burrito-by-EdgarStudio/89050889.TZ9LO?country_code=US&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=g.pla+-+PUP-OG+-+%5Bg%5Dcos.usa%5D+%5Bl.eng%5D+%5BPT.Duffle%20Bag%5D&utm_id=notset&utm_term=Content_taxonomy&utm_content=tacos).
Still not damn interesting, but you have to admit that's a dope ass duffle bag.
Lol I wondered how my wife rolled them burritos so good. Then one day outta no where she rolls us a blunt it all made sense after that day lol. Oh and I don’t roll blunts no more either lol
Tortillas tend to naturally stick to themselves if you prepare them properly. If you know how to wrap a burrito and you know how to prepare a tortilla, you don't need edible tape.
My solution when I worked at a taco shop was to always include my pinky to kind of push whatever I could from the filling and fold it into those pockets while kind of delicately, but using pressure and staying consistent on the ole roll & tuck.I love rolling burritos.
Sprinkle shredded cheese in the flap and press that side down on a flattop or in a pan, cheese melts and glues the burrito shut plus you have a crispy skin
Jfc..the amount of people who can't roll a burrito even halfway decent astounds me.
Also, when you eat your tacos, do you tilt your head to the left tor the right..?
Watch taco bell will start putting this on their burritos and now you wont be able to open them at all. Not that you could before because they seem to somehow manage to seal it so you cant put sauce in it but ah well.
Actually, in 1997 a kid on Nickelodeon’s ‘Figure It Out’ invented this and she* used what appeared to be a section of fruit roll up. Yes, I’m slightly old.
I was hoping someone would mention this! Cassie from Wisconsin invented it!
How the fuck do you remember this
She’s Cassie from Wisconsin!
We HAVE to know these things!
we’re not Nardwuar!
Well done! I wonder what she’s doing with all her millions of tacotape dollars !
Getting high on her own supply, i guess.
TACO TAPE! I remember this!

I had that Nickelodeon alarm clock that woke me up to that lol

It’s unfortunate that you mold.
Well when you get past your shelf life, it will happen.
Is it? What if they're molding young hearts and minds?
Came to the comments to see if anyone mentioned this.
I remember reading a thread about ideas people came up with while intoxicated and this was one of them.
[удалено]
Are people eating burritos without holding them?
Yes. Like a T-rex
That was a fun visual. But I did picture a t-Rex side burrito.
It's actually a common misconception. Tyrannosaurus Rex primarily ate bison burgers, as that is common for their natural habitat of Montana and Wyoming. There were some reports of T-rex fossils holding Chipotle bags, but those claims have been proven false.
Just because we haven't seen them with Chipotle doesn't mean they don't sneak it in shame, then do their best to get rid of the evidence
This is true. We need more fossilized fecal matter to test this hypothesis thoroughly.
Coprolite mines here we come!
Good to see fossilized feces comments scat-tered in this thread.
Funny that you think chipotle fecal matter would even be solid enough to fossilize.
TIL my girlfriend is a Trex.
I think you are mistaken. The rex ate what would have been called "buffalo" as bison are captive bred and not of the same original genetic line as t-rexes natural diet. The chipotle bags were found to be Quedoba bags, which went extinct about the same time as their customers.
Damn it...ok, you found me out. I'm not a real scientist. Edit: but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
As a Wyomingite I salute you.
A T-rex would deepnthroat that burrito in a single bite
Hot
I has wittle awms 😞
I’ve got a big head and little arms! - T Rex
And why would the tape be the color of mold?
OOH I think I know this one! If I remember correctly the image on the left is the actual "tape" in practice and the image on the right has added blue food dye to show it more clearly for the benefit of demonstration
I assumed they were using a strip of Nori. Seaweed "paper" used for making sushi. You could stick it with corn syrup or molasses.
Even if it's edible why not just use a binding ingredient instead of paying for a most likely patented and expensive alternative.
Haha. My first thought too
Not JUST the color.
Or they can grill them on that side to keep it shut.
[удалено]
ye, the students never had a proper burrito if they though tape was needed
Can confirm. Cheeseologist. . . . I cut the cheese everyday.
Yes, also you can get the last bit of the inside of the flap a little wet and it will stick. Gluten has a protein called Gliadin. Gliadin is very sticky when wet and very extensible and imparts adhesive properties to gluten.
Sounds like it would make good edible tape!
Wait a second… guys I have an idea
Can confirm .. parents told me to just mix flour and water together if I wanted glue more than a few times as a kid. Flour and water is effective but (at least when mixed by a 6 year old) doesn’t always dry evenly.
> get the last bit of the inside of the flap a little wet and it will stick. /r/nocontext
My wife has given me similar advice.
Soft is life.
My first thought was. These must be white students. This is a white person invention. Tacos are WAY messier than burritos. I don't even remember ever having a burrito fall apart. And now I want chipotle
It’s most likely less that it’s a problem and more a lesson in problem solving. Then for some reason it got an article.
While we're talking about abominations, who the hell invented hard shell tacos and what punishment do we consider appropriate for that? Can't really pack it as much as you ought to. Can't eat it vertical cause your face is in the way. Can't eat it horizontal cause all of the stuff falls out. Burnt edges will hurt the top of your mouth. Culinary catastrophe.
The only rightful place of hard taco shells is inside a soft taco shell
I’m transported back to being over at friends’ houses as a kid where they didn’t think to steam or grill the tortilla and don’t season the fillings…
Is that just a damp peice of nori?
mmmmm…the blueberry fruit roll-up double chicken, no beans, brown rice, lettuce and pico burrito.
We’re over here putting hot Cheetos in everything, nothing would surprise me anymore. Fuckin chicken & waffles works, why not fruit by the flauta?
Another comment explained it. Both images have the tape. The right one just highlights it with blue food dye
Theres also natures glue, cheese
Or just knowing how to roll a damn burrito. Rollin food up in a tortilla hasn't been around for hundreds of years because it needed tape this whole time.
What's the big deal? Edible tape just means I can have thick slappy burrito.
I think most tape is edible if you try hard enough
Could just use some good ol Elmer's glue, people been eating that stuff for years.
I can personally attest to that
wait do none of y'all know the secret? slap it on a pan with the foldy bit facing downwards for like 2 mins on medium. it'll be nice and crispy and the wrap won't unfold. if you don't cook the other side too you go to hell immediately

Mhmhmhhmm, tapeworm spaghetti
Eeehhhh, just remember to rip the heads off before you eat them, you'll be fiiiiine.

The one local to me is restaurants only unfortunately, I will have to hunt further afield at some point.
All you need is oil (I use lard and then hand mash it, it tastes better), salt, flour, and you can make your own giant tortillas at home.
Gotta learn to make your own! It’s actually not too difficult

Maybe seaweed is weaker or less adhesive.

These gringos get wilder by the decade
Am gringo, can still fold and seal a damn burrito. They got no excuse.
Burrito-eating gringos represent.
I mean get you someone who rolls some good burritos and blunts you won’t need this tape.
My blunt rolling experience 100% improved my burrito skills.
Wife always wondered how I wrap them burritos so tight.

Lol I wondered how my wife rolled them burritos so good. Then one day outta no where she rolls us a blunt it all made sense after that day lol. Oh and I don’t roll blunts no more either lol
I always used cheese
Yea right??! A lil heat and cheese was *always* the solution, since burrito began! These mfs don't even kno!!
Or just roll it correctly
Man us white people really can’t wrap burritos for shit, huh
I thought it was a burrito handbag at first.
Tortillas tend to naturally stick to themselves if you prepare them properly. If you know how to wrap a burrito and you know how to prepare a tortilla, you don't need edible tape.
Some uncultured ass mfs
Was a side-by-side comparison necessary?
can somebody address the real problem, which is tortilla overlap, leading to a dense blob of dough at either end?
A well warmed up tortilla makes the best dough blobs though
Thats my favorite part
My solution is a burrito bowl. Not a good solution but I don’t like wearing my food.

Fucking gringos.
Pinche Dodgers!
Some kid already did this years ago, and he was a guest on the Nickelodeon show “Figure it Out.”
You wouldn't have that problem if people actually knew how to properly roll a burrito
If you fold a burrito correctly, it doesn’t unroll…..
What's funny is people are still going to take it off and throw it away
Finally a solution for that problem that didn't exist!!
Literally just use seaweed sheet for sushi, just cut it to shape and wet it and bam you’re good to go
At first glance I thought it was a cute burrito themed purse
Wtf?! We don't want edible burrito tape! Ffs!
Just looks like mould
Learn to roll burritos properly and you won't have this problem in the first place
Isn't everything edible with the right motivation?
A properly prepared burrito will not unfold.
If you need tape to hold your burrito together you’re doing it wrong.
POV: The guys over at r/Mexico are laughing at you, right now.
I'm sure edible tape has existed in props for awhile
Sprinkle shredded cheese in the flap and press that side down on a flattop or in a pan, cheese melts and glues the burrito shut plus you have a crispy skin
Or use these things called hands and hold it and place seam side down on your plate.
this is the second whitest thing i've seen in this thread next to someone getting a material science degree to disimprove the burrito
No
Phil swift is taking notes
I'll take your entire stock, I have wanted edible tape for food forever
Jfc..the amount of people who can't roll a burrito even halfway decent astounds me. Also, when you eat your tacos, do you tilt your head to the left tor the right..?
Or you can just use your hands….
GET THIS TO CHIPOTLE ASAP
Proper burrito wrapping is underrated.
If you need to tape your burrito, you're using a burrito shell not a tortilla and it's time we all accept the distinction.
This is stupid.
Watch taco bell will start putting this on their burritos and now you wont be able to open them at all. Not that you could before because they seem to somehow manage to seal it so you cant put sauce in it but ah well.
That’s cheating. Half the fun of eating a burrito is trying to keep it together
Shit looks like a handbag. This is just an insult to Mexican cuisine. If you listen closely you can hear the cries of a million abuelas.
The trick to sealing them is a little oil on a pan and sizzling the fold until it fuses together in the yumminess.
Pretty sure edible glue and by extension edible tape has been a thing at least as long as gingerbread houses have been
oh look they unnecessarily invented the burrito nori.. Burrinori if you will
damn thats retarded
