    You have to fold the ends of a burrito tortilla in to seal the filling. It’s a sharp fold that corn tortillas just can’t do. Burrito tortillas are often 12"/30cm or more, and I feel like corn tortillas aren’t strong enough for that (never tried, but also never seen them for sale).

      Ah okay, that makes sense. Personally when I do something with tortillas, I just fold one end and keep one open. Idk if the exact shape has a name, it’s easy and I mostly care about the stuff inside rather than the (admittedly clumsy) shape.

      I should start doing burritos though. Seems like I’d spill less stuff out while eating.
