Since establishing itself as the preeminent name in survival horror,Resident Evilhas managed to parlay its success into a variety of mediums. The popular Capcom series has been turned into aseries of movies, spin-off games, and even astage play, and now Capcom is taking the franchise to the next logical step: the burrito.

Using video games to hawk foodstuffs is nothing new, with themed cafes regularly popping up throughout Japan and abroad, including a recentMetal Gear Solidcafé in Paris. Now, game-themed food has made its way to jolly old England, with Capcom UK joining forces with Hitchin-based Mexican street food vendor Cantina Carnitas to craft the ultimate burrito in honor of the beloved franchise.

While diehard fans may be wondering howCapcommissed the obvious “Jill Sandwich” recipe, theResident Evilburrito is sure to set tongues wagging. In a video posted to Capcom UK’s YouTube channel dubbed “Cooking With Capcom,” Cantina Carnitas owners Matt and Jeff explain the process behind the themed meal.

Matt and Jeff, avid fans ofResident Evil, put serious thought into crafting the burrito. It all starts with two toasted tortillas fused together to create one mega-tortilla, before stuffing the monstrosity with red pepper rice, pork chorizo, black beans, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, and salsa.

While this may not sound particularlyResident Evil-y, Cantina Carnitas included a few key touches to connect the burrito to the acclaimed franchise. The burrito includes seasoning via red herbs and green herbs, a la the healing plants found in theResident Eviluniverse, before injecting the burrito with a mouth searing hot sauce dubbed the “T-Virus.”

While Capcom may currently be in the doghouse with fans overStreet Fighter V’s unfinished state, even the strictest Capcom hater would have a hard time saying no a tasty burrito. Hopefully the burrito tastes better than some of the recentResident Evilgames play.
