History, tradition and origin

Wheat flour tortillas belong to northern Mexico, where wheat grew better than corn, and the burrito began there as a wrapped meal for workers. The large stuffed version and the burrito bowl developed in the United States. Enchiladas, tortillas rolled and covered in chili sauce, are recorded in Mexican cookbooks from the 1800s.

Food economy and industry

Tortillas outsell many kinds of bread in the United States, and Mexican-style food is one of the largest restaurant sectors there. Fast-casual chains built on assembling burritos to order changed the industry. Cheese, beans, rice and chilies are the main inputs, with avocado the most price-sensitive.
