Anyone eat a burrito from Holiday lately? Check this out.. I dare you.

Check out this LIE from the manufacturer.. I guess "highest quality ingredients" is synonymous with carcinogens such as propylene glycol (petroleum, i.e. OIL product), nitrites, sodium aluminum sulfate (fertilizer), oleoresin (plastic derivative) etc..
As always, the shorter the list of ingredients, the better the food is for you. :)

"Don Miguel Hand Butcher Wrapped burritos are 7 oz. burritos filled with the highest-quality ingredients inside a hand-stretched tortilla. Sold in a variety of flavors for Breakfast. Available at your closest convenience store or in the cold deli section of your grocery store."
