FRESNO, Calif. -- The masterminds at Taqueria Yarelis have gained an even bigger following on Facebook thanks to this video of their "Anaconda" burrito. It's a three-foot-long burrito, meant to feed five adults.

Last week, one of the restaurant owners posted this video showing exactly how it's made.

They start by laying down five tortillas, then stuff it with meat, cheese, beans and all the other ingredients. Then, it's grilled or baked.

Since being posted on Monday, November 21st, the video has gone viral with more than 17 million views. And now, they have fans as far away as San Diego who visited over the weekend to get a taste of the Anaconda.

Taqueria Yarelis is off of Belmont Avenue and Fresno Street. The Anaconda costs $23.
