Around 10,000 B.C., a corn tortilla food wrap became a common dinner in Mesoamerica. For thousands of years and countless generations, the recipe was passed on and evolved. The Pueblo Native American of southwestern United States and northern Mexico ate it as a staple meal. Cowboys roaming California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Texas, and Guanajuato found it to be an easy meal to eat while rounding up cattle. There's a couple legends where the name "burrito" came from. One says it's because a street vendor in Ciudad Ju谩rez named Juan M茅ndez sold the meal while riding a donkey. Another claims it came from a term of endearment used by a man selling lunches to poor school children. Today, the burrito is served in an infinite amount of restaurants in a myriad of varieties. Yet another example of how food shows we have more in common than we have in differences.
Alrededor de 10.000 aC, una envoltura de tortilla de ma铆z se convirti贸 en una cena com煤n en Mesoam茅rica. Durante miles de a帽os e innumerables generaciones, la receta se transmiti贸 y evolucion贸. El pueblo nativo americano del suroeste de los Estados Unidos y el norte de M茅xico lo comi贸 como una comida b谩sica. Los vaqueros que vagaban por California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Nuevo M茅xico, Colorado, Texas y Guanajuato consideraron que era una comida f谩cil de comer mientras redondeaban el ganado. Hay un par de leyendas de donde vino el nombre "burrito". Uno dice que es porque un vendedor ambulante en Ciudad Ju谩rez llamado Juan M茅ndez vendi贸 la comida mientras montaba un burro. Otro afirma que proviene de un t茅rmino de cari帽o usado por un hombre que vende almuerzos a ni帽os de escuelas pobres. Hoy en d铆a, el burrito se sirve en una cantidad infinita de restaurantes en una gran variedad de variedades. Otro ejemplo m谩s de c贸mo la comida muestra que tenemos m谩s en com煤n que diferencias.
