The burrito is one of the original handheld meals, probably invented by migrant workers from Mexico working in the Southwestern United States (food historians put its origins somewhere between Los Angeles and Tucson) who wrapped beans in tortillas to take with them into the fields. But at Costa Vida Fresh Mexican Grill, a 94-unit chain based in Lehi, Utah, the burritos are typically smothered in cheese and enchilada sauce, making them messy to eat with your hands. But they have worked out a solution with new non-smothered burritos that are now available.
A piada is also a handheld item, and Piada Italian Street Food has a new one inspired by a Caprese salad.
Burger King is continuing to test variations of its Chicken Fries, this time in Boston with French fry-shaped versions of chicken & waffles and chicken Parm.
