But, y’know, way to stretch a metaphor to its breaking point and all that.

Meaning the monkeys who are *currently* making it are what makes the food cheap. He’s a fucking shit head. Don’t defend it.

I think Moutarde just said that assembling a burrito is so easy that a trained monkey could do it, that’s not the same thing as saying that it is trained monkeys that ARE doing it.

(Disclaimer: I do not share his view on this. Putting together a delicious burrito is not actually so very easy, in my experience.)

Or magic.

Pinto bean quality is key. Making your own from dried beans is wayyy better than the canned ones. Just soak overnight, change the water, cook for an hour with big chunks of onion. Add salt at the end, rather than while simmering, to keep them soft.

Amazing.

Not the chemical-laden vaseline they sell at supermarkets, but either render your own at home in a big pot of simmering water (it’s super easy) or go to a respectable butcher and ask for “leaf lard”–the good shit.
