i think chipotle's extreme fattiness bothers people's stomachs. i never eat meat there but even the tortillas seem really fattey to me

yeah look! http://cityrag.blogs.com/main/2005/08/2_big_macs_have.htmli have eaten there probably 10 times in my life only because it was across the street from school but i always feel like i don't need to eat until tomorrow and it turns out i was right

Lord! If it's gonna be a fat-bomb anyway you might as well use a really good lard tortilla.

Chipotle burritos are too big. They're significantly bigger than the average taqueria burrito in SF, which with meat, is pretty much a meal in itself. I think they put something in their pinto beans that doesn't sit well with me, and I don't like black beans very much.

I haven't been to Chipotle, but where does Baja Fresh fit in here? Last time I went to Taco Bell (had to get something between school and work) I got pretty tore up.

Baja Fresh is awful. Baja Fresh is probably equivalent to mexican food in Boston..

chipotle also makes me X( because i like pintos better than black beans but their pinto beans have pork in them and i hate the taste of pork

this is fishy--in nyc chipotle franchises have to put their calorie counts up 1168 is like twice as many as they claim! are they getting like extra cheese and sour cream and guac or what??
― max, Monday, 3 August 2009 12:27 (fourteen years ago) link
totally confused by chipotle-haters in this thread btw--its fast-food mexican, so it seems silly to complain that it isnt authentic or whatever, and as fast-food mexican goes its well-sourced & well-made. in fact i probably trust chipotles meat more than i trust the meat at the taco trucks i frequented in LA (tho i do like those trucks more)
― max, Monday, 3 August 2009 12:33 (fourteen years ago) link
i don't know--when they put the calorie counts up does that include stuff like that? iirc if you ask for cheese they put a huge amount on. also that's from 2005 or something. it was like the first google result i can't guarantee its accuracy xp

― blobfish russian (harbl), Monday, 3 August 2009 12:39 (fourteen years ago) link
i did a little research harbl and according to that site the tortilla is 570 calories which isnt impossible but is waaaaaaay on the high end of tortillas
― max, Monday, 3 August 2009 12:39 (fourteen years ago) link
lol i mean 290 not 570
― max, Monday, 3 August 2009 12:40 (fourteen years ago) link
it allegedly says 290 on the chipotle site too but i can't get it to load. but their tortillas are (1) huge, (2) shiny, and (3) translucent so they should be way on the high end probably

like, i don't see why you would ever eat chipotle if you lived in an actual city, but it's really not that bad -- certainly not even close to taco bell, and it's pretty good as far as big corp fast food goes. their burritos are gross because they don't train their employees how to roll burritos (in my experience), but their tacos are dope & their, uh, bowls are also good. the ingredients are good -- i mean, it's hard to fuck up chicken, black beans, rice, cheese & salsa, imo.

taco bell is probably worse because i'm sure everything is crawling with e. coli and other bacteria, whereas with chipotle everything's fairly fresh and prepared (if not cooked) right in front of you. the beans are fine on my system because the rice helps with digestion.

The rat place was the Taco Bell by the W. 4th subway stop in Manhattan. I am kinda thankful because I'm nearby, and it's probably a good thing that if a Taco Bell nostalgia/craving strikes me after a few drinks, I do not have the opportunity to make major mistakes.
I think I said this last time, but yeah, the great defense of Chipotle is that it's just plain stuff sitting there -- beans, rice, meat, cheese, etc. -- and none of it is weird or disgusting, really. So I've never found much to complain about. There's nothing particularly good about it, but as fast food goes ... you know what it is, and it tastes the way you'd expect, and that's more than you can say for most places. If there were one by my office, I'd probably eat there all the time.
