  I remember when I was a kid back in the 80s, they had a brief show where kids could show off their inventions and this one girl came up with a type of edible tape you could use to do things like hold burritos together. I still think that’s genius. Of course, it never became an actual product.

    As a gringo who can’t get a burrito to stay shut, I’d buy that.

      Toast it for a minute after you fold to seal it. Works even better if you sprinkle some water on the part where the tortilla touches itself

      Weird. This was like 15 years before that.

  I nibbled on Ice Cube once before being brutally tackled by his security.

  I have no idea if they still do it, but a decade or so ago it was all over the internet that a Brazilian fast food company had started using edible wrappers and made a marketing stunt out of it. The chain was apparently “Bob’s”.
