Microwave burritos

I think they put drugs in them because I’ve never figured out why I like them

I’m also a fan of those packaged burritos. I think it all has to do with peppers, and Endorphins.

Here’s a nifty article entitled “This Is Your Brain on Capsaicin”; she ends it by saying, “So next time you need a little pick-me-up consider giving into the power of the chili pepper and discover why chiliphiles have come to love the burn!”

It’s a very ‘scientifical’ article; I would have just said, “It feels good!”

Not from convenience store direct, mind you, but a very convenient dessert.
Serve warm for dessert and serve cold for breakfast, if there's any leftovers.
And, yes, you can add chocolate chips.
