Answers:
Tofu IS healthier, but there's nothing wrong with extra-lean meat either:) You should have some red meat (in moderation) each week to get the complex proteins and amino acids in there!. I'd be more concerned with the tortillas that the burritos are wrapped in - especially if they're fried! Tofu is good and we eat it too, but it's no substitute for the taste of meat:)Www@FoodAQ@Com

yes it has less fat and more proteinWww@FoodAQ@Com
