It's official: a burrito is not a sandwich

Is this a good use of the judicial system? A Mass. judge ruled that a burrito is not a sandwich, allowing a Mexican restaurant to open in the same mall as a sandwich shop. What about tortas?

“A sandwich is not commonly understood to include burritos, tacos and quesadillas, which are typically made with a single tortilla and stuffed with a choice filling of meat, rice, and beans,” Locke wrote in a decision released last week.

In court papers, Panera, a St. Louis-based chain of more than 900 cafes, argued for a broad definition of a sandwich, saying that a flour tortilla is bread and that a food product with bread and a filling is a sandwich.

I'm glad we cleared that up.
