If you’ve felt your burrito was smaller than it should be, smaller than in the commercials, the CEO agrees.

      I said this in another thread but Everytime I’ve gone to as chipotle to fix something as part of my job, the kitchen area has always been disgusting. Like brown water on the floor disgusting.

          lol, it’s usually just rotted food, pressed into surfaces and not properly cleaned, uncleaned drains so your not able to properly rinse the floors and whatnot, gross but not quite that gross

          Like the other person said, it’s dirt, rotten food, unkept drains. It’s not poo or anything that disgusting but still way beyond what I consider acceptable quality.

      There are three restaurants I distinctly remember long-term as health risks: Chipotle, Chi-Chis (decades ago), and Jimmy Johns.

      The first, I still consider a risk. The second is long gone, and exists only as branding for salsa and the like. The latter, made a concerted effort to get rid of the one risky part of their product which couldn’t be cooked or otherwise sterilized (sprouts, by definition) and to my knowledge hasn’t had a large-scale problem since.

      JJs is the only one that handled it even remotely correctly, after either the first or second outbreak, by straight removing the risk. They’re also the only one of the two remaining above that I’ll patronize. I’ve never eaten Chipotle, and it strikes me as highly unlikely that I ever will.

          Woah, that’s absolutely insane. Subway has always struck me as a little pricey for what they offer, but they’re also dead consistent which counts for something.

          JJs, no way I’d spent $26 for a sandwich of any size.

          At those prices (or McDonald’s prices these days, TBH), I’d just as soon sit down and also tip for basically the same amount of money with better quality food.

          Self-checkout tipping has never made sense to me. I haven’t done the deep dive research, but I suspect that since the tips are not directed at an employee, it’s an easy way for the business itself to get tips w/o being in violation of tip theft laws. No intended employee recipient == free-for-all and business can grab the cash.

          I thought I was the only one!

          Jimmy Johns is priced so stupidly. Hell, all fast food is. Domino’s has a $25 pizza? Subways wanted $12 for a meal?

          Fast food shouldn’t cost MORE than the price of a local business.

          Those places are dead to me.

        Not gonna lie. If I found an open Chi-Chis, I’d probably eat there. More out of nostalgia than anything but that used to be one of my favorite places.

        You consider chipotle to be a health risk because the food is cooked there? I assume you would consider a Burger King a health risk?

          More that they’ve had a number of food safety issues over the years, and seem not to have taken any definitive steps to resolve that - as opposed to e.g., JJ’s who got rid of the sprouts, since they were entirely unable to be cooked/sanitized/etc.

      I really want to stop eating Chipotle, but I’m autistic and it’s one of my few safe foods that I just can’t give up.
