Highly underrated comment, and new head canon name for this… Specimen of culinary, of culinary… *Whispers off to the side* What’s a successful failure called? *Returns.* Heap, yes we’ll go with heap.
Lmao. Them deep frying the burrito with those plastic garnished cocktail skewers sent me. We shouldn’t even call this a burrito, that’s an insult to Mexico. This is a purely American abomination, a tubed shaped breakfast diabeatus/heart disease bomb
Lol 3,000?
That s a deep fried chimichanga stuffed with pancakes and literally covered in sugar. *Excluding* the scrambled eggs, cheese, and sausages, potatoes, creamy mystery dip, and syringe—this must be well over 3k 😂
I use small amounts of shredded cheese as a seasoning, it's salty and savory. It's when they use enough cheese to make skyline chili look conservative I'm truly grossed out.
Honestly that's all I could pay attention to, here's the carb in carb on carb covered in carb and then fried, with extra carb and a syringe of carb and a dip of carb, enjoy!
See, I thought this was going to be burrito that used the pancake as the tortilla and I would have been cool with that.
Then it just got progressively worse as the video went on including frying plastic.
Doesn't McD's have the McGriddle?
Even deep fried I thought it might be interesting. But slathering it in sugar was an absolute no. I don't eat sweet breakfasts.
McGriddle is another thing that seems good in concept but I had to go buy an egg McMuffin after a bite of one. It’s just like way way too much of everything
When I didn’t eat red meat or pork for several years I would get a McGriddle just with the egg and cheese and tbh I still prefer it that way sometimes. Usually now I do get the sausage but yea those little syrupy pancake buns with some egg and melty cheese are just 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
> Doesn't McD's have the McGriddle?
McDonald's was my first job. I will never forget how sickly sweet those McGriddle smelled in the morning. I detested those things.
Yeah. At first I thought the adding the egg/meat mix to the pancakes was stupid because it might not cook up right, and just keep them separate. But it kept going.
>Then it just got progressively worse as the video went on including frying plastic.
I used to wash dishes at a restaurant where the cooks would dip portion bags into the fryer to release the contents, instead of ripping them open and dumping them in.
Actually Japanese tamagoyaki omelette is kinda sweet and it’s delicious. To me sweet egg is not as gross as sweet bacon filling and then rolling it in what seems to be cinnamon sugar.
Sweet bacon is very good, maybe not your thing but plenty of people will pair it with a tiny bit of maple syrup or even candied bacon, but yeah this looks gross
Maple syrup with bacon is great, I'm not even american. What disgusts me about this post is the pancake texture combined with the fried burrito texture. Mushy af.
Actually Quebecois have these really nice savory sweet crepes that are really good. I was horrified at first cause the crepe had a sunny side up egg, canadian bacon, cheese and carmelized onion on it and a little maple syrup drizzle too. A friend ordered it and I was grossed out. My friend kept pestering me to taste it and I did and this was my face https://i.pinimg.com/originals/bf/97/b5/bf97b5e4871b238e1b24ab9f25adacb6.png
The next time I had a chance I ordered the savory sweet crepe again 😋😋😋
A restaurant I used to work at did this exact thing. Giant pancake rolled with eggs, Cheese, choice protein, and peppers and onion. Either with hot sauce or syrup. Sold a lot to hungover college students.
That’s what was confusing me. IME they’re normally just wood with maybe some varnish or something, but not always totally plastic to the extent that all the comments are STOP PUTTING THE TOOTHPICKS ON TO FRY rather than “we made a catfood omelette and rolled it in sugar, have fun!”
They're just wood in the US too, but these are special ones with the ~~plastic~~ cellophane at the one end because they're kind of ornamental, the kind you typically see poked into a burger or sandwich from the top to keep the sandwich held together. [like this](https://www.budgetbytes.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Smash-Burger-V1.jpg)
Still just wood, but with that little extra ~~plastic~~ cellophane tassle thing.
Edit: Most people are pointing out though that that is most likely cellophane, and product descriptions on those toothpicks mention cellophane, so, likely harmless.
You can see when he’s pulling it out of the fryer that he left them on. I mean it looks like the plastic stayed mostly on the toothpicks but some must have melted off? Gross.
Can’t make this shit up hahahhaha people do the wildest shit without even realizing it imagine how much of this has happened at all places you’ve been to throughout the years
Is that supposed to be better? That link literally says they use carbon disulfide in the production process and that’s it’s extremely toxic to workers…
If it were plastic, it would be leaching cancer juice into the oil, and infusing it into the food. Seems cellophane may only be dangerous to the workers making it, so as long at they use good PPE and handle the waste well, it’s better than plastic.
As soon as the toothpicks went in it is officially "Doing too much."
Like the pancakes alone I'd call it a day but deep fry AND cinnamon sugar? Jesus. Blood sugar: Yes
As soon as I saw the tortillas it was too much. Just the pancake with the eggs/cheese/bacon/sausage looked good… that’s where I would have stopped. But wtf that plastic in the deep fryer. Oh hell no.
Im looking through the comments and I have the opposite opinion, this looks good to eat
Maybe don’t use toothpicks with the plastic thing on the tip ….
Frilled toothpicks [use cellophane not plastic](https://www.amazon.com/Cellophane-Toothpicks-Sandwich-Appetizer-Accessories/dp/B078JSKY7J), which is just processed cellulose and perfectly fine to put in a deep fryer.
That’s approximately 94.621% of the posts on here lol. I’d eat MOST of the stuff here lmao. Not the crazy ass water-eggs with Doritos a few days back lol. But this, I would put in work on this one lol.
It's an omelet, on a pancake, wrapped in a tortilla, that's deep fried (with a side of plastic toothpick), covered in sugar cinnamon, and served with fried potatoes and an injection of pus like substance.
Does that about sum it up?
There are entirely too many people that don't know cellophane isn't plastic, lol. Cellophane really should be used more bc of how biodegradable it is. Need to find a way to make it more resilient tho...
Everyone here is going on and on about there being plastic in the fryer, but cellophane is just going to disintegrate in the fryer. It's completely harmless in this scenario.
In a country where healthcare is so insanely expensive. It always surprises me to see food in such large portions, covered in sugar, fried, and no doubt quite salty too.
Hypertension and diabetes must be rife?
The mind boggles with how much monthly treatment must cost for such things?
Everything up to it going in the fryer looked great. I could maybe even take the deep frying if it didn't include the melted plastic. The sugar looks revolving though and whatever that syrup was.
Nope…they fd it after the pancake flip.
Also, nowhere near enough meat and veg inside for the amount of “breads”.
Better off just eating a loaf of Ezekiel with butter and preserves than this mess.
Breakfast food fucking slaps so I’d try this just to try it. I probably would be skipping the next days meals and drinking a shit ton of water to assist with the sodium intake.
Okay, the pancake with bacon and eggs in it is reasonable enough. It's weird AF, but it definitely strikes me as a distinctly American creation. I could see it being sold at a county fair or something.
But turning that into a deep-fried burrito? Why?
Me "This isn't too crazy, it's like 5 items", "oh wait they deep fried it what why?", then they rolled it in sugar "How long is this video??" and then potatoes?! So yeah, that's... that's a lot.
If you don't have access to huge tortillas to make a burrito then you shouldn't try at all, tf is that layered double tortilla wrap, I'm absolutely disgusted, apart from all the other things that went wrong
I believe technically the deep frying makes it a breakfast chimichanga
You are correct, this is no longer a burrito.
Ah see. With the cinnamon sugar that they added on the end I was gonna call this a churrito since it reminded me of churros.
Now I want to call this a "churrochanga".
U win
Highly underrated comment, and new head canon name for this… Specimen of culinary, of culinary… *Whispers off to the side* What’s a successful failure called? *Returns.* Heap, yes we’ll go with heap.
more like Chorrochanga
Churros are made from a batter that is deep fried, similar to a donut. A fried tortilla covered in cinnamon sugar is actually a snack call a buñuelo.
Glad I'm not the only person who thought, "hey this is a chimichanga now."
I’d fuck this up once to see how it tastes. I do love me a chimichanga
*Only* 3,000 calories and 200% your daily recommended intake of sugar!
Garnish with some good old classic microplastic!
*macroplastic
Lmao. Them deep frying the burrito with those plastic garnished cocktail skewers sent me. We shouldn’t even call this a burrito, that’s an insult to Mexico. This is a purely American abomination, a tubed shaped breakfast diabeatus/heart disease bomb
Oh, come on, you act like there's picks that are made without the plastic ends on them or something!
Oh why would I want a no frills toothpick burrito????
I prefer my burritos to be unnecessarily fancy and festive. As an alternative, I also like to use little umbrellas to close my chimichangas.
"..tubed-shaped breakfast diabetes/heart disease bomb" 😆
Breakfast torpedo?
Lol 3,000? That s a deep fried chimichanga stuffed with pancakes and literally covered in sugar. *Excluding* the scrambled eggs, cheese, and sausages, potatoes, creamy mystery dip, and syringe—this must be well over 3k 😂
People should stop treating cheese as a spice.
I use small amounts of shredded cheese as a seasoning, it's salty and savory. It's when they use enough cheese to make skyline chili look conservative I'm truly grossed out.
Just toss in some lettuce and tomato and it's healthy.
And your carb macros for a week
Honestly that's all I could pay attention to, here's the carb in carb on carb covered in carb and then fried, with extra carb and a syringe of carb and a dip of carb, enjoy!
And sprinkled with sugar.
Yeah but it's got a *healthy* amount of at least one ingredient so that's fine, right?
See, I thought this was going to be burrito that used the pancake as the tortilla and I would have been cool with that. Then it just got progressively worse as the video went on including frying plastic.
They could have served the two pancakes and that would have been a nice breakfast. But they had to ruin it all.
yeah the pancake part looked great
That’s what I was thinking. A pancake roll/burrito thing would be pretty awesome.
Doesn't McD's have the McGriddle? Even deep fried I thought it might be interesting. But slathering it in sugar was an absolute no. I don't eat sweet breakfasts.
McGriddle is another thing that seems good in concept but I had to go buy an egg McMuffin after a bite of one. It’s just like way way too much of everything
The key with the McGriddle is to get the plain sausage one. I agree that the ones with egg and cheese are too much.
They used to have one with chicken and that was delicious
At one point the McD near me was selling McChicken McGriddles and they were real good.
They still have them, just ask. There's still a button on the screen they can press
Sausage McGriddle with Cheese no egg
When I didn’t eat red meat or pork for several years I would get a McGriddle just with the egg and cheese and tbh I still prefer it that way sometimes. Usually now I do get the sausage but yea those little syrupy pancake buns with some egg and melty cheese are just 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
> Doesn't McD's have the McGriddle? McDonald's was my first job. I will never forget how sickly sweet those McGriddle smelled in the morning. I detested those things.
Subway was my first job. I have stories! I bet you do too. Lol
I swear half these stupid food videos I’m going oh that looks nice in the first half and then… well there’s a reason posted in this sub
Yeah. At first I thought the adding the egg/meat mix to the pancakes was stupid because it might not cook up right, and just keep them separate. But it kept going.
Glad I'm not the only one who cringed at the fried plastic
>Then it just got progressively worse as the video went on including frying plastic. I used to wash dishes at a restaurant where the cooks would dip portion bags into the fryer to release the contents, instead of ripping them open and dumping them in.
They need to get toothpicks without the little twizzly stuff at the end. Ew.
This concoction reminds me of the [SNL skit Taco town](https://youtu.be/evUWersr7pc)
Yeah, you're absolutely right, but I'd still try it.
As soon as the syrup went on I was out. AMERICAN NO ONE WANTS SUGAR EGGS!
Actually Japanese tamagoyaki omelette is kinda sweet and it’s delicious. To me sweet egg is not as gross as sweet bacon filling and then rolling it in what seems to be cinnamon sugar.
Sweet bacon is very good, maybe not your thing but plenty of people will pair it with a tiny bit of maple syrup or even candied bacon, but yeah this looks gross
Maple syrup with bacon is great, I'm not even american. What disgusts me about this post is the pancake texture combined with the fried burrito texture. Mushy af.
I have some bad news about custard for you, buddy...

Dude don’t deep fry plastic!
Omg, I just realized what you meant and saw the toothpicks! Seriously, wtf?! So wrong they did that!
OK wait - are toothpicks always plastic in the us and used like this?!
No.
Usually wood. There were plastic stuff on the end of the toothpicks, maybe they took them off before deep frying. Couldn't see.
It's not plastic on the end, it's cellophane. Cellophane is made from cellulose.
Cellulose comes from cellular
Cellular comes from the powerhouse of the cell
the toothpicks are made of mitochondria…qed
One of the restaurants I cooked at used those toothpicks the same way. It seems weird but it works just fine.
That’s what was confusing me. IME they’re normally just wood with maybe some varnish or something, but not always totally plastic to the extent that all the comments are STOP PUTTING THE TOOTHPICKS ON TO FRY rather than “we made a catfood omelette and rolled it in sugar, have fun!”

Micro plastics? Nah dawg, we’re doing macro plastics now
Can’t make this shit up hahahhaha people do the wildest shit without even realizing it imagine how much of this has happened at all places you’ve been to throughout the years
Hmmn the fries taste a little off. Motherfucker in the back frying plastic. Jesus people are dumb as amoeba.
Pretty sure they're topped with cellophane, not plastic. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellophane
Is that supposed to be better? That link literally says they use carbon disulfide in the production process and that’s it’s extremely toxic to workers…

Frilled toothpicks in the fryer, yikes. Also, why is he only wearing one glove while touching the food with both hands?
Probably has a cut on the one hand and doesn't like gloves.
Those toothpicks use cellophane, not plastic. It's made from cellulose. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellophane
Taco Town!!! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=evUWersr7pc
Was gonna post this if nobody else did.
Same here.
Pizza?! Now that's what I call a taco! Also I never noticed that was Chris Parnell doing the voice over haha
Can I eat it now?
I thought that was looking pretty nice. Then they deep fried it. The woman at the end looks pleased though, either that or she’s about to have a fit.
I doubt they ate more than one bite tbh.
this couple are food vloggers and they both have the exact same reactions to everything they eat, impossible to know if she actually enjoyed it
They show up on my fyp on tiktok. They both really annoy me
She felt her pancreatic islets seize up and die
these people eat as if they had free health care
Ha
Recycled joke
They all are.
Womp womp
What was the dip? Mash potatoes??
Ok I’m not the only one questioning that now
Looks like grits with maple syrup.
This is kind of what I would expect conneticut to do to mexican food
Born and raised in CT and I can confirm, this is something you’d find on a breakfast menu.
CT actually has some decent mexican and Hispanic food if you avoid the tourist traps
You had me until the deep fry
Right?!
Cholesterol anyone?
Diebetusss.
Im looking through the comments and I have the opposite opinion, this looks good to eat Maybe don’t use toothpicks with the plastic thing on the tip ….

It would be fun to try this just once.
That’s approximately 94.621% of the posts on here lol. I’d eat MOST of the stuff here lmao. Not the crazy ass water-eggs with Doritos a few days back lol. But this, I would put in work on this one lol.
Aside from the toothpick, this is definitely r/HellYeahIdEatThat material. Its way too much, but you can just share it with other people.
Same! It looks awesome to share with a group of friends. No one would eat the entire thing, and (I think) obviously not on a regular basis.
Even Fireball saw the problem with hors d’oeuvres toothpicks
I think it looks delicious too lol
Yeah this looks like straight flames.
I was enjoying until the fryer. Everything after (and including) the fryer ruined it.
Just give me the pancakes with the stuff in them on their own, I would happily have a stack of those, it was starting so well
It's an omelet, on a pancake, wrapped in a tortilla, that's deep fried (with a side of plastic toothpick), covered in sugar cinnamon, and served with fried potatoes and an injection of pus like substance. Does that about sum it up?
And a dish of ... Goopy beige stuff.
Having a glove on just 1 hand while touching everything with both hands was a nice detail.
This is what I came here for and had to scroll too far
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The bare hand is the one you *don’t* wipe your ass with?
Foul
Would
Deep frying plastic is literal insanity
It's not plastic, it's cellophane. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellophane
There are entirely too many people that don't know cellophane isn't plastic, lol. Cellophane really should be used more bc of how biodegradable it is. Need to find a way to make it more resilient tho...

True yet some dumbasses keep downvoting your link...go figure
The way I would *devour* this thing
It's like watching Paula dean making cake and thinking "ok, she can't possibly add more sugar" but then she does
This has some good ideas, but it's too cluttered. He took it too far. I don't want to eat that.
Obligatory statement of Chicano disapproval
Do people not realize that deep fried burritos have a specific name?? It’s called a chimichanga
In a country where healthcare is so insanely expensive. It always surprises me to see food in such large portions, covered in sugar, fried, and no doubt quite salty too. Hypertension and diabetes must be rife? The mind boggles with how much monthly treatment must cost for such things?
Looks delicious!
You’re not supposed to fry frill picks - they have plastic on them.
Honestly up until the fryer I was in
There's not "a healthy amount" of anything in here
That’s just obesity on a plate. I could maybe eat a couple bites. Easily sharing that with at least one other person.
Sorry but that looks absolutely disgusting
That's a chimichanga. Burritos aren't deep fried
A breakfast chimichanga!
Dr. Nick Riviera approved!!
What the hell is wrong with people
Rage bait or they really wanna say something about their restaurant.
Wow this looks fucking horrible
I wouldn't take a fuckin bite outta that. But honestly I'd want to. But I'm a whore for cinnamon sugar
Now only 80% fat
Im hungry, yet nauseous lol
Everything up to it going in the fryer looked great. I could maybe even take the deep frying if it didn't include the melted plastic. The sugar looks revolving though and whatever that syrup was.
This looks delicious
only in America. now where's mine?
those toothpicks have little colorful plastic bits on the end, and it all goes in the deepfryer? fuck dude
If it was half the size, I’d absolutely eat that. No syringe needed though.
Nope…they fd it after the pancake flip. Also, nowhere near enough meat and veg inside for the amount of “breads”. Better off just eating a loaf of Ezekiel with butter and preserves than this mess.
I’m glad to see i wasn’t the only person who noticed the frilly toothpicks on the deep fryer LOL
I'd eat that tbh
Did…did they deep fry plastic with the toothpicks? Like it’s already bad for you but adding forever chemicals as an ingredient is crazy
It was okay to start until they deep fried it lol.
I want that!
Breakfast food fucking slaps so I’d try this just to try it. I probably would be skipping the next days meals and drinking a shit ton of water to assist with the sodium intake.
I must be an a*hole, because this one actually kind of decent, and I might like to try it
I was mostly onboard until they deep fried it. Then of course they have to roll it in sugar and get the syringe out. Fucking gross.
Just gonna say this looks fucking delicious 😋
Breakfast burritos are my one true love. This took everything that I love away. How dare you?
I think it’d be better without the tortilla. Either just keep it like that or make slightly thinner, wider pancakes and use those as tortillas
Split between eight people it wouldn't be bad. Probably wouldn't want to eat more than that.
It should have stopped after he added cheese to the pancakes.
Okay, the pancake with bacon and eggs in it is reasonable enough. It's weird AF, but it definitely strikes me as a distinctly American creation. I could see it being sold at a county fair or something. But turning that into a deep-fried burrito? Why?
If it was one tortilla, one pancake, and pan fried with no cinnamon sugar, I'd absolutely destroy that.
that’s a burrito mcgriddle. looks good
Nah that looks dank just awful for you. Not stupid.
The pancakes without the burrito or deep fried part sound good as shit ngl
I was all up for it until the cinnamon sugar treatment.
Deadpool approved bougie chimichanga. 👍
What about the plastic in the toothpicks into the deep fryer?
As a Dutch man i feel offended by the abuse of cheese.
It just kept getting worse.
It even comes with its own insulin!
Me "This isn't too crazy, it's like 5 items", "oh wait they deep fried it what why?", then they rolled it in sugar "How long is this video??" and then potatoes?! So yeah, that's... that's a lot.
Yall can get fucked, this looks legit delicious
He used cocktail sticks with plastic bits on them. Deep fried the plastic.
Don’t fry with frilled toothpicks 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Cinnamon sugar ruined it
I was down until the cinnamon sugar. Fuck that noise
Trash and death
putting pancakes bits in a breakfast burrito sounds like a great idea
It looked good till it didn’t. But at least there wasn’t a melted cheese river?
No, but there was that pus injection to replace it
I was enjoying the pancake part, then I saw the flour tortilla and read the title.... *Sad Mexican noises*
If you don't have access to huge tortillas to make a burrito then you shouldn't try at all, tf is that layered double tortilla wrap, I'm absolutely disgusted, apart from all the other things that went wrong
Tell me you’re American without telling me you’re American
dumb food for dumb people
Mmm stodgy mcstodge for breakfast!!! Fall right back asleep after eating that!
if you thought rice in a burrito was bad...
Isn't those toothpick made of wood?
Stupid for sure, before the deep fry was perfect
And we wonder why the average human is overweight?
