“Burritos as big as your head” is a restaurant sign that has been shown on many images.
     
“Nachos as big as your ass” is a somewhat similar restaurant sign.

Highlands-area Mexican restaurant La Bamba will close next month for demolition to make way for a bigger restaurant and retail space. The “burritos as big as your head” are expected to return in April: http://bit.ly/36i6MIS

There’s a restaurant in the city where I grew up called “Burritos As Big As Your Head.” They should’ve gone with “As Big As Your Toddler.” Ch-Ch-Ch-Challenge!
