So where did National Burrito Day come from? As far as some research shows: no idea. Sometimes these holidays just pop up on a calendar somewhere and take on a life of their own, and it seems to be the case here (if anyone knows differently, please let us know so we can update this article).

As for the origins of burritos themselves, those also have a lot of conflicting history behind them. Some sources say they were invented in 1910 during the Mexican Revolution. Others point to 1895 when some places called what we know as tacos, burritos instead. Other sources point back to the 1500s when the Incas would roll food in a tortilla instead of folding it up, taco style.

Whatever the origin of both burritos and National Burrito Day, we know that one isn’t enough. So, thanks Baja Fresh!
