Readers' Choice: Nominate Your Favorite Burrito

Who has the best burrito in town? Speak out about your favorite rolled tortilla treat.

As popular and common as the burrito has become, it might surprise you to know the food has been in the United States for less than 80 years. According to a book by Mary Wallace Kelsey, it was a Los Angeles restaurant that introduced the burrito to America in the 1930s.

Now there are hundreds of variations of burritos, all with different ingredients both inside and out. Do you like your burrito "wet" with salsa poured over the top? Do you like it with a corn tortilla, shredded chicken and black beans? And what about cilantro?

No matter how you like your burrito, everyone has a favorite place to get theirs. So nominate your favorite burrito in our comments section below.
