Nope. Electric. I just don't want to take the time to roll up a burrito.
I tend to put off eating until I am super hungry. And then I want the food
like...yesterday! So for me, plop some beans in a tortilla, heat it up,
maybe add whatever else I have like onions, tomatoes, some kind of sauce,
lettuce...
