      Fully-automated outdoor vending machines for pizza from scratch already exist and aren’t new. It doesn’t seem like a huge stretch to adapt that to roll something into a burrito instead of baking it.

        Yeah, this whole list is kind of nuts. Burritos already get mass produced in factories. Those prepackaged ones at the grocery store? Some brands have people hand making them but quite a few are machine made and rolled. It’s not a very big stretch to put that kind of machinery into a restaurant, and 2 techs is about the same price as 4 $20/hr works by their estimate
