The story Cited · wp-breakfast-burrito
It comes out of New Mexican cooking. Tia Sophia's, a diner in Santa Fe, claims the first use of the term on a menu in 1975, though a tortilla rolled around eggs, bacon, potatoes and cheese predates the name. McDonald's added a version in the late 1980s; Sonic, Hardee's and Carl's Jr. followed in the 1990s; Taco Bell in 2014. Dunkin' sells one too.
