Battle of the burritos

Boca Grande

$3.75

By far the largest of the burritos sampled so far, the Boca Grande burrito was roughly the size of a peewee football. And from the looks on the panelists' faces, it apparently had roughly the same amount of taste.

"This is really gristly," Feld said, wincing.

"But it definitely has the largest chunks of meat so far," Prerau said, and then abruptly stopped chewing. "I say that as I've just bitten into a huge piece of fat and gristle."

Liu took a few bites before dropping his burrito unceremoniously on the tin foil wrapper. "It doesn't have any of the stuff that makes burritos good," he said. "It could be an aberration."

"And why are the beans pulverized?" Prerau asked. "It's like a slurry. Ugh."
