=== Description === The breakfast burrito's origins lie in New Mexico - a state with a rich history of trying to improve things from old Mexico - in the mid 1970s. Suddenly and without warning, the US Government cancelled their tortilla contract with New Mexico in 1971, citing the rise of cheaper bread alternatives. Citizens of the state were now over encumbered by a massive surplus of tortillas but only a limited amount of lunch and dinner times per day. The local government declared a state of emergency and tasked an elite unit of New Mexican chefs with developing a way to introduce the tortillas into breakfast without raising suspicions from the rest of the country. Unfortunately, after millions of dollars and two years of trial and error, the elite unit of New Mexican chefs were unable to complete their mission. The New Mexico government sent a memo to the chefs to "wrap it up" as their funding was to end in one week. However, the chefs took the memo literally, and wrapped the base breakfast ingredients of egg and potato up into a tortilla. It was an instant success. Today, breakfast burritos are enjoyed all across the globe, and tortilla quantities are kept at safe levels.
