“Quesadilla? Better make it one dilla. I don’t think I could eat a whole case”

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.

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.”

 
Other quesadilla jokes include “I love Mexican food them chicken case of ideas be so good fr,” “Quesadiarrhea” (quesadilla + diarrhea; “case of diarrhea”) and “Why did Sherlock Holmes visit a Mexican restaurant?”/“Because he was looking for a good case idea.”
   
   
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.”

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.
