This cheeky burrito blanket 'keeps you warm, but not hot' — and it's down to $16

If you sometimes feel like wrapping yourself up in a blanket like a human burrito, well, you kind of can with this Amazon fave. The Mermaker Burrito Tortilla Blanket is printed to look like an actual tortilla — it’s even round in shape — and more than 1,000 were bought in the past month alone. If you're a foodie (or someone close to you is), this blanket makes the best gag gift that also happens to be fully functional and handy, especially during open-window spring season. That's not even the best part, though. Right now, you can score one while it's on sale for a cool $16.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

The fact that this throw blanket regularly retails for just $20 is already kind of a big deal. However, it's on sale for a rare $16 — even better! That's about the same price as your Chipotle order (or maybe even less, depending on if you get guac). Keep in mind, however, that this blanket comes in five sizes, but the 71-incher is the only one on sale and it's large enough to fit two people or more.

Why do I need this? 🤔

OK, if we're all being honest with ourselves, this is one of those things you definitely don’t need, but wouldn’t life be more fun with it? The answer is yes, yes, it would.

The Mermaker Burrito Tortilla Blanket features a high-quality, super-soft flannel fabric that won’t fade, and it features its tortilla print on both sides. At 60 inches round, it will keep you cozy and tranquilo all night long. Still, if you want a little more blanket, you can also get it in 71-inch and 80-inch sizes. (There are 47- and 36-inch round blankets that's great for kids too).

Picture this scene: You're ensconced on the couch, enjoying a warm burrito, wrapped warm as a burrito. That's the kind of synergy we all need in life. Now, we're obligated to mention that the folks at Mermaker also produce snuggly pizza-, cookie- and waffle-themed wraps for non-burrito lovers. But seriously ... who doesn't love burritos?

What reviewers say 💬

Shoppers absolutely adore Mermaker's Burrito Tortilla Blanket, with a whopping 58,000-plus reviewers bestowing it a perfect five-out-of-five star rating. Plenty of shoppers agree that it's a great gift too!

Pros 👍

“I love this blanket!” wrote one happy hombre. “[It] keeps you warm, but not hot, just like the flip side of your pillow. Everyt ime I pick it up, I crave tortillas.”

“I got this as a gift for a friend and she loved it,” wrote another Amazon amigo. “She loved the way it looked and said that the color and everything is very accurate to a tortilla. She thought it was a great light to medium weight blanket.”

As for its quality, this customer couldn't be more impressed: "The quality of the blanket is excellent. It's crafted with soft and plush materials that make it incredibly cozy and comfortable to snuggle up in. The fabric is gentle on the skin... We've used it for movie nights, story time, and even as a fun picnic blanket."

Cons 👎

Again, there are five sizes to choose from, so choose wisely! Some shoppers said they wish their blanket was a little bigger: "Really soft, the color is nice," said one four-star reviewer. "The only reason I removed a star is because it is a bit smaller than expected, but overall, I love it!"

Others wished it was a tad thicker: "Bought this for my son. He really likes it cause it's so soft and cozy. Looks just like a tortilla," explained another shopper. "I was only disappointed on the thickness, because I thought it might be just a bit thicker, but it's thin like one of those thin throw blankets [from] Walmart or Family Dollar... though overall, my son is very happy with it and uses it every day."
