if you're somebody like jae, you might say something geographically self-righteous like "if a burrito is served to you in foil, then it's not really a true mexican burrito"
well jae, hi by the way, i don't live in san diego. and i watch rick bayless on pbs, and he has never eaten a burrito on his show, so i can't even know for sure that there is such a thing as a true mexican burrito. also, i think i speak for everybody when i say that you should definitely have carne asada fries as a food option for your wedding, or at least a dessert option.
you might also say that cholula is a wussy hot sauce to which i would say, "leave me alone!"
but what i wanted to get at was that the salsa is on the side!!! yes, very urgent. the inside of the burrito is drier than jimmy fallon. put the spicy salsa inside the burrito, moistening the contents to a better degree of succulence.
oh, but you say, that spicy salsa is for those chips you have there, isn't it? no, you have it backwards. you have the spicy salsa inside the burrito, so that it's hot and moist (skip it), then, as your mouth is flaming from the burrito (skip it), you indulge yourself in the chips, as a way to take a break from your burrito and cool down your mouth.
yes, i thought of every single word for this post while i was eating a burrito today.

hi josh!!! thanks for remembering how i despise burritos wrapped in foil! and... rick bayless? really? "gourmet" mexican food doesn't really float by boat. what IS that, anyway? i go for the nitty-gritty, greasy, wrapped-in-paper, grilled-not-steamed-tortilla burrito where, if i order a carne asada burrito, i will sometimes get eggs, potatoes, or bacon from the grill-leftovers of the breakfast burrito that the guy before me had ordered. and i like it like that. but definitely no beans. no matter where you are. beans should only be in a bean-and-cheese/rice burrito.
but really, salsa??? i HOPE you're not putting that on your burrito. it is, i say, a bit too far from the chips, and little too close to your burrito. where's the hot sauce ("red or green" or, in my case, "both")? well, in the absence of such, ain't no shame in some cholula. SALSA?! might as well put some pace picante or something....
you're killing me, joshy! you're KILLING me!
by the way, i can't even know for sure that there is such as thing as a true mexican burrito, either. but burritos wrapped in foil are fake burritos! muahahaha
I appreciate the use of "skip it"
