another stupid food story.
I love burritos. The burrito is one of man's greatest inventions.
For a while at my last job, I had to go to Orlando for a week or two each month. Which sucked because Orlando is boring as hell and I wanted to be at home in my studio anyway. But even given all that, things picked up when I discovered Tijuana Flats just a few miles from the company apartment. Tijuana Flats has the best veggie burrito I've ever had anywhere. I started devising ways to pack up a dozen and take them home. It was Mexican vegetarian heaven. I ate there at least three times a week when I was in town.
So one day I'm ordering my veggie burrito and I happen to ask
the cashier...
me: Hey, there's no chicken stock in your rice, right?
her: Actually, yes, there sure is!
me: <sound of life as I know it ending%gt;
her: What's wrong?
me: It says vegetarian burrito. Chicken ain't vegetarian.
her: Well jeez, if you're all hard core about it.
