Mexican popular tradition tells the story of a man named Juan Mendez who used to sell tacos in a street stand, using a donkey as a transport for himself and the food, during the Mexican Revolution period (1910-1921) in the Bella Vista neighborhood in Ciudad Juárez. To keep the food warm, Juan had the idea of wrapping the food placed in a large home made flour tortilla inside individual napkins. He had a lot of success, and consumers came from other places around the Mexican border looking for the "food of the Burrito," the word they eventually adopted as the name for these large tacos.
The spanish word "burrito" is literally translated as "little donkey" (which has nothing to do with the food item, hopefully).
Varied fillings such as rice noodles and meats are wrapped in a rice wonton sheet, which is semi-transparent and soaked in water. They are wrapped similarly to a burrito.
