As the largest state along the U.S.-Mexico border, Texas isn\u2019t short on great burritos. And Thursday gives fans an extra reason to indulge: It\u2019s National Burrito Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The burrito <\/a>\u2014 Spanish for \u201clittle donkey\u201d \u2014 likely emerged from the blending of Mexican and European foods after the Spanish conquest in the 16th century, according to food historian Jeffrey Pilcher in Planet Taco: A Global History of Mexican Food.<\/p>\n

The name may come from burros<\/a>, or donkeys, used by street vendors to carry and sell the food. The animals often hauled cylindrical bedrolls resembling the shape of modern burritos.<\/p>\n
