“I’m going to have a quesadilla."/"Really, a whole case of them?”

A “quesadilla” isn’t a “case of dillas,” but there are jokes.

“Wasn’t Homer the guy that turned down the offer of a quesadilla. As I recall he said ‘better make it one dee-a, I don’t think I could eat a whole case’” was posted on the newsgroup alt.fan.british-accent/ on August 16, 1999. “I’d get the quesadillas, but I don’t think I could eat a whole case” was posted on the newsgroup alt.religion.kibology on March 31, 2004.

This was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on July 23, 2013:

Whenever I order quesadillas…
Me: “I’ll have the quesadillas please.”
Dad: “A whole case of dillas?! How about you just have one dilla then see how you feel.”


“Why did Sherlock Holmes visit a Mexican restaurant?"/"Because he was looking for a good case idea” is another quesadilla joke.


Wikipedia: Quesadilla
A quesadilla (/ˌkeɪsəˈdiːjə/; Spanish: [kesaˈðiʝa]) is a Mexican dish and type of taco, consisting of a tortilla that is filled primarily with cheese, and sometimes meats, spices, and other fillings, and then cooked on a griddle. Traditionally, a corn tortilla is used, but it can also be made with a flour tortilla, particularly in northern Mexico and the United States.

Asked my uncle to buy me a quesadilla.  His response?  “What’s a dilla, and why do you need a whole case of them?”

I don’t even know what dilla is, so why would I want a whole case of it? #CaseODilla #Quesadilla

Friend’s dad just dad-joked me.
I was riding home with a friend and his dad when we passed by a Mexican restaurant. As we pass it, I mention that I really like their quesodillas, and then he chimes in with “Oh, I could never eat a whole case, I could only eat an each-o-dilla.”

Honey, I’m bringing you a quesadilla…
No need to Helen, I don’t need a whole case of them. One dilla is plenty.

My wife offered to make me a quesadilla for dinner
I told her no. Whatever dilla is, I don’t think I could eat a whole case.
