I haven't been able to find frozen burritos in any grocery freezer section except the "Amy's" brand in the healthy section. I asked several clerks at the stores in Brandon and they don't know what I'm talking about or say they no longer carry them.  
 
I'm looking for either the El Monterey or Reser's brand of burrito, you know the ones that are sold in like an 8 or 10 pack, Beef n Bean, Bean n Cheese, or other types of flavors.  
 
Yes I know I can make my own homemade ones, (that taste better/healthier etc...) however the convenience of popping one in the microwave is great for the kids, and a time saver for me.  
 
If anyone has truly seen some for sale in the freezer section, please post what store. No luck so far...  
 
Where did you go?  
I miss you so  
Feels like it's been forever  
since you've been gone  
my little burrito  
I miss you so

I bet your toilet ain't missing your little burrito. I would try any convenience store (just be sure to check the expiration dates as there are a few places in town who feel it is merely "a suggestion".

I haven't been to Superstore in ages but they used to carry the bulk bags of frozen burritos, I kind of miss the bean and cheese ones now that I think of it

Most expiration and best before dates on food are exactly that “a suggestion “. In most cases if no spoilage is observed and a little common sense applied food is safe to consume after it is expired, especially frozen or sealed foods.  
It’s this kind of misinformation that contributes significantly to excessive food waste, causes unnecessary pressure on landfills , increases food price inflation and contributes to human caused climate change.  
If our ancestors saw what food we waste and throw out now they would be horrified.

Exactly in most case it is a best before date, not a expiry date. Only a few things such as baby foods have a expiry date.  
It's amazing how information gets twisted and distorted and in this case as stated leads to so much waste.

Best Before not deadly after dates!

Sadly they haven’t been available for quite awhile now. I heard it was because they were all made in the US and weren’t being sent (or brought) into Canada. Not sure if this is correct or not, but I have checked all the grocery stores in Brandon and they are nada.

When I googled it last spring a bunch of Reddit posts said there was a shortage in Canada. Luckily i was able to find them in Bottineau and bought 4 packs!

A friend of mine always used to buy these. We wanted to try them in the air fryer but can’t find any. Are we blind or did they disappear too?
