Ha!!! Thank you for this! I e-mailed this to a bunch of friends. You gave us the last burst of energy we needed to get through our Friday workday!

Dear god! How big was that burrito anyway?

@bisbee: I guess the burrito was the size of an infant?

How can you confuse the two?

What do they mean by only a burrito?
Would the police have dared be so insensitve had the un-baby turned out to be cream cheese on a bagel or ham & swiss on rye?

I wonder why they thought it was a baby. Was it crying?

Only at Wal-Mart!
Perhaps the person thought WM was a safe haven for unwanted burritos. And if it was one of those frozen "tina burritos" or other prepackaged things you can buy in your local convenience store and nuke, those are unwanted.

yeah, seriously, we're talking about wal-mart here, the land of ECONOMY SIZE. i could totally see them selling an infant-sized burrito.

Maybe someone threw a big burrito in the trash can and called the police as an April Fool's joke.

So did the pot head who mistook the burrito for a human baby proceed to eat the burrito after the police gave him the all clear? I'm assuming his buzz had worn off by then and the munchies had kicked in.

Actually, La CosteƱa market on Rengstorff and Old Middlefield Road in Mountain View makes a two-tortilla burrito the size of an infant. Anyone who has eaten one before will tell you. BTW their carnitas kicks ass!
