[Taverner]

1. Is your mouth on fire?

If not, there aren't enough chipotle peppers

[Midlodemocrat]

3. Yes. Thank God for the iced tea.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

2. Are they as good as the burritos?

And what meat did you get?

[Midlodemocrat]

8. Shredded beef, guac, sour cream, cheese.

Dee-frigging-licious.

Although, I am so hungry I was getting ready to gnaw off my leg.

[Telly Savalas]

14. Did the beef come from cows that were treated in a compassionate manner

when they were alive?

[Midlodemocrat]

18. No calves were killed during the making of my taco.

Not so sure about the iced tea.

[Telly Savalas]

25. Well, was it fair trade hot sauce at least?

[Midlodemocrat]

27. No extra hot sauce.

I am too old for that.

[Moochy]

39. Niman Ranch

Niman Ranch meats.

[Telly Savalas]

41. These aren't the suppliers for Chipotle are they?

[Moochy]

42. Yes, for my local chipotles in the SF Bay Area

They have signs proclaiming that they use niman ranch meats.

[Telly Savalas]

44. Cool.

[trotsky]

4. Did you know that McDonald's owns Chipotle? n/t

[Midlodemocrat]

10. Is that true?

Well, at least its not WalMart.

[trotsky]

33. Here's a reference

15. Since when did McD's buy Chipotle?

[Moochy]

35. since 1999

McDonald's has quintupled the number of Chipotle restaurants, to a total of 200, and will open another 70 this year, said McDonald's Chief Financial Officer Matthew Paull. The Denver-based Chipotle chain, acquired by McDonald's three years ago, is popular for its freshly made burritos and tacos.

They own boston market too.

[Moochy]

21. McDonalds owns.. but higher quality standards for sure

Chipotle has some decent quality food, their spicy machaca beef is nearly inedible though and I like spicy beef.

They have signs that say their meat is all Niman ranch. Definitely a step up from a big mac.

[Kikosexy2]

5. Ever ...

have cum in your eyes? ...IT BUUUURRRNNSSS!!! (from the movie "Trick").

[Jara sang]

6. Is Chipotle the new Chi-Chi's? n/t

[Midlodemocrat]

11. I personally think Chipotle is the new Tom Cruise.

[XemaSab]

7. Is sweat running down your nose into your taco?

If not, you need tapatio urgently!

[Midlodemocrat]

12. Ick. No.

But I do have the AC set at 65.

[datasuspect]

9. does it have grease in it?

or wheat germ?

sidenote: chipotle is owned by mcdonalds

[Midlodemocrat]

13. It has deliciousness in it.

[datasuspect]

16. to each their own

i live in an area with lots of mexican people and they have some really good "greasy-spoon" restaurants.

my test: if i can order in english, it ain't mexican food.

[Midlodemocrat]

17. This is pretty authentic, actually.

[datasuspect]

20. i just can't get past the mcdonalds taint

but if what you say is true, i might have to galavant over to a better zip code and try them out.

[Midlodemocrat]

23. I didn't know about the McDonald's connection.

We ate at a chipotle when they came to the area about 2 years ago. Now there is one down the street.

The thing I really like about them is that the salsa has tons of cilantro. I love cilantro.

[datasuspect]

26. if you have a juicer

get some fresh cilantro and fresh limes and run them through and then drink the concoction.

man o man, it is some of the most invigorating shit i have ever drank.

better than dope.

[tigereye]

38. there is nothing like cilantro!

yum. Now I want to go out and get one too!

[Moochy]

28. Agreed tasty!

They are not greasy, so it's not muy autentico, but the ingredients are good, and they let you screw up your filling combinations.
I think they have some really strong training and prolly pay a bit more than mcdonalds.

My local chipotle hablas espanol, if you want to order en espanol.

Whats the spanish word for a Wrap again? ;-)

Mexi-wrap?

[datasuspect]

34. spanish word for wrap = BURRITO

[RedCloud]

19. Will something terrible happen to me with this post?

I am dreadful of quadruple digits.

[terrya]

22. Did you bring enough for ALL of us???

:-)

Damn, that sounds good. There's a Chipotle right down the street from work...I may have to stop and get one on my way home.

[Midlodemocrat]

24. Yes. I put it in the hot tub room. Next to the keg of beer.

[terrya]

30. You're always thinking ahead, Midlodemocrat.

Thank you! :-)

[Beware the Beast Man]

29. ENOUGH!!!!!!!

I want to leave South Beach. I'm homesick. x(

[terrya]

31. Oh....

I know what you mean. :-(

[Beware the Beast Man]

32. Heheh..

:D

These food threads are torture lately...

[Midlodemocrat]

36. I'm sorry BtBM.

But it is the only thing I have eaten all day and I was starving.

[Beware the Beast Man]

37. You'll be full the rest of the day, too.

I love Chipotle, McDonald's-owned or otherwise...

[Deja Q]

40. Will we need gas masks and our own personal oxygen supply 30 mins later?

?

[GOPisEvil]

43. I'm so glad we have local burrito places here.

Although...for chain food Chipotle isn't bad. I'm just lucky enough to have better options. :)
