Elon Musk, You're a Little Late!

Fast as that is, they go through you even faster.

That explains the "satisfying pneumatic hiss".

What is the minimum bend radius of a burrito?

Before or after consumption?

Swallowed whole or masticated?

C'mon...at least wait until 4/1/2015 to post this one!!

I had a dream about something like this.
Drone delivered burritos - GPS ready to triangulate on my mouth for delivery. This is the dream.

Nice dream anyway,

I'm a little hungry....Who wants burrito's???? I'm buyin'!!!Yer flyin'!!!!

Weehawken brothers injured by flying burritos!

There's no such thing as a "Good Question" vote, so a GA will have to do on this one. ;-)

Oh, I'll just have to add that the challenge question is incomplete without knowing the mass of the burrito. Can we assume that friction is negligible?

Naturally the student should indicate any and all assumptions or apparently not given parameters needed to answer the question.

Weighing-in at a hefty 1.7 pounds (771 grams), El Farolito's 'BBs' - Ballistic Burritos -are anything but. Compared to, say, La Taqueria's sabot-style burritos (1.3 lb/590 g in a parafoil wrapper that peels away automatically once launched) they are the undisputed heavyweight champions of West Coast faux-vato fare. Cross sections of each reveal a generous dollop of roughly-chopped tomato salsa in La Taqueria's, and no visible vegetable matter in El Farolito's. Both burritos are salty, but 'Lito's is extra salty. El Farolito's carnitas (braised pork that's been fried in fat prior to serving) has a soft, almost wadlike consistency reminiscent of shredded chicken, but the meat is spiced-to-burn-twice with what tastes like jalapeño and oregano. 'Lito's whole pinto beans are also well-spiced and salted. La Taq's meat tastes porkier and has a nice textural contrast between softer bits of meat and chewier, crisper bits. Its beans are a bit bland as if in protest but the vegetal, juicy salsa answers in delicious counterpoint. Neither pro-burrito maker creates too wet of a burrito: The construction typically remains intact throughout The Act.

It is difficult to say whether one is "better" than the other. All else being equal, El Farolitos' are clearly the winner if only out of sheer bulk. Aesthetically speaking, La Taq's may be considered a somewhat more 'refined' version with its slightly slimmer shape - the shape chosen less for aesthetics and more to reduce gastrodynamic drag during the projectile's trajectory through the customer's system, as proven at White Sands - and tomato element, whereas Farolito's is more like a stoned hipster's mushy-spicy-salty-fatty-panacea-on-a-Friday-night-after-the-whatever-let's-go-pork-out-I've-got-the-Munchies.

As I have grown older, I consume less of the "silver bullets" than I did in my 20s (it is why I have grown older), but I must say that eating them is like slipping back into a nicely broken-in pair of comfy, slightly ripe Chuck Taylors.

That is one hot, loud burrito. A++

You even used the arcane Rankine temperature scale, cool.

Excellent write-up. Any more links on how BART can cope with quakes ? It'd be nice to hear more good stuff - TV constantly rattles on about San Fransisco 1906 conspiracy stuff (doctored photo's and so on).

Yes, forget Amazon drones. DARPA is just finishing the rail gun version to launch these puppies just short of LEO.

Coming in at a blistering Mach 15, coast to coast delivery will be almost as fast as your credit card is processed.

It's only a matter of time before the UK has a Taco Bell on every corner. Even if not religious, get down on bended knees and pray you never get lured to a Brit kebab shop.

Who the heck needs DARPA. Given the money (feel free to donate), I can get as much surveillance kit as I'd need. Is that a pesky mosquitoe......eeek....it could be an Etherville quadrocopter. Oops, I could go cheap and just get to the postie.....What the hey, I'll just snitch you lot to NSA. Not that it's easier, just a lot more fun .

Now with ablative wrapper!
