Monday’s supermoon was forecast to be a breathtaking, worldwide display that won’t come around again until 2034.
Trouble is, not everyone was able to get a glimpse of it ― as numerous photos from disappointed social media users show. Fortunately, a tortilla stuck to a window makes for a pretty convincing stand-in.
Without further ado, cue the tortillas (and our appetite):
