Duane Roberts, inventor of the Frozen Burrito, died at the age of 88.
I used to buy packages of these fairly regularly, but haven't had any in years; I consider them something of a luxury food when times are tough.

But, I'm not even when I say that I was grocery shopping today, walked by the frozen burritos, saw they were on sale, and grabbed a package of eight.

For a moment, I stood there thinking about how unhealthy they are and how I can't really cook them well (ie - nuclear on the outside, frozen on the inside, ice cream, ice cream, i-ice cream paint job) without a bit of effort.

So, I put them back. No burritos for this hombrè.

tl;dr - I probably killed D. Roberts by not hopping back on the burrito bandwagon.

Damn, I sometimes have one for breakfast and as a second lunch during long shifts. Why are they so addictive when they aren't even THAT great??
