So today I'm watching Everyday Food on PBS, and there's a recipe for Southwestern Chicken Wraps.
Yeah. Because in the southwest, they call chicken, beans, tomato, and avocado on a tortilla a "wrap."
It's a taco, bitch. It has always been a taco, it always will be a taco, and no amount of white-lady influence will ever make it anything else but a taco, not even the use of whole-wheat tortillas. The only thing that makes it something other than a taco is the method you used to wrap it up. Now it's a burrito.
The only good things I can say about this are that the chef didn't pronounce tortilla like "tor-TILL-ee-ah" and that the overall food seemed like it would taste good.
Wraps indeed. Damn Martha Stewart productions...

Yeah! What the hell is up with the "wrap" thing, anyway? It's almost like they're trying to New-Yorkize a sacred Mexican foodstuff tradition! Down with "Wraps"! Boooooooo!
