This ruse went up in smoke.

A New Jersey Uber Eats driver thought she was delivering a customer a burrito when a strong, unmistakable odor led her to discover she was actually muling marijuana, according to police.

The woman picked up what appeared to be a normal food order from a location in Lindenwold, Camden County, on Friday night — a burrito wrapped up in tin foil, a soup and a water bottle, according to Washington Township Police.

But as she was driving she recognized the odor coming from the bag of food — and it wasn’t carnitas.

She pulled over and called the police.

An officer arrived and “inspected the package curbside and determined that it was not a burrito meal,” said Gurcsik.

“There was no meat, or lettuce or beans or rice. It was actually an ounce of marijuana,” he said.

      What a stupid thing to say. Alcohol is legal so I’m going to make bathtub moonshine and sell it illegally and pretend its a burrito?

      Just because you can sell it in one way doesn’t make it a free for all. And yes, if the driver found out about it and doesn’t report it then they are complicit in the crime which carries penalties.

      I bet they aren’t getting any more than the shitty delivery rate, that’s not worth getting a record for.
