Chipotle

Okay, Chipotle is officially off of my list of places to eat. I have no problem with the food, except that I like it too much and the caloric intake that results is ridiculous! Seriously, check out their website for how many calories it is just to have a burrito or tacos or even the salad. A burrito with chicken, rice, beans, salsa, cheese and sour cream is 840 calories. A salad with chicken, beans, lettuce, cheese, and sour cream is 815. Tacos with chicken, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, and sour cream is 705 calories. It's pretty darn bad and I've decided to give it up just like I gave up Frapaccinos years ago when I figured out that the great taste just isn't worth it. You can calculate the calories on your burrito by clicking here.

Um... maybe cut the cheese and sour cream... that would save you 200 or so calories....

Perhaps, but it wouldn't taste the same. Still, that's only 200 calories.
