Joe Arpaio and the Arizona Rangers — while that might be a great band name, those two entities are our two deepest fears.

That healthiest of foods may or may not have been the result of a happy accident by Monica Flin, the owner El Charro, in Tucson — the nation’s oldest Mexican restaurant. Rumor has it that Flin accidentally dropped a burrito into her deep-fryer in the early 1920s while she was cooking, and voila! Heart attack! Phoenix-based Woody Johnson, the owner of what’s now Macayo’s, claimed that same fortunate accident happened to him in 1946. Still, others claim the fried burrito is a traditional brainchild of Pima Native Americans and has been around for a long, long time. We don’t know for sure where it comes from, but we love eating chimichangas — and talking about them.
