Recently over lunch, the library conducted a taste-test face-off of 3 local vegetarian burritos. 5 Iwasaki Library staff participated, each ranking the burritos on a 5 point scale. The following results display the closeness of this race for the best burrito close to campus.

Herrerra's |
21 |
Best ingredients - e.g. black beans,
not brown. Lacking spice. Most cheese. |
Next time, ask for extra hot sauce,
and a little less cheese! |
|
Boloco |
16 |
Most spicy! Tortilla was different,
too much rice. Most salty. Least expensive (by
$0.25) |
Next time, ask for less rice, and
any variety ingredients. (Note, while in
3rd place, Boloco won the highest score from any single judge - a
4.5) |

Maria's
Taqueria |
18.5 |
Largest - but mostly rice. Warmest
upon arrival - using the "2nd-steaming"
method. |
Next time, ask for less rice, and a
little more salt and hot sauce.
