We don't have Chipotle in Canada, but here's what my lunch at Wendy's "cost" me, for a Big Bacon Classic (no lettuce or tomato), sour cream and chive baked potato and small iced tea:

We don't have Chipotle in Canada

Actually there's one in Toronto, near the Eaton center. It's yummy.

I'm afraid to look it up. Fortunately I only get Chipotles about once a month and I usually only eat half my burrito at the time (saving the other half for the next day).

Duly noted. I'll have to try to get there next time I'm in T.O. Where by the Eaton Centre? On Yonge?

 

[Amaris]

Wow. I used to eat there almost every day when I worked at Dell. No WONDER my chest hurt!

There must be something wrong with me. I've tried eating there twice and both times their buritos tasted so salty I couldn't finish them (and after using the calulator I can see why). Amazing how anyone can make a burito with chicken, rice, veggies and salsa thats actually UNhealthy.

And after reading this thread, that was probably a good thing...

Of course Chipotle is bad for you... it's not Qdoba!

 

[MeanJoePhaser]

Haven't been to Chipotle in some time or Qdoba. Have been to Rio Wraps, which is still the worst of the three, but closest to work and they have $5 burritos.

 

[Messianni]

I used to get the burritos, but when I do have it now I just eat the three tacos with chicken, corn, sour cream and cheese:

I'm so glad I only use eat there once maybe every month or two...

I'm not a fan of the food style in general, but I just really like their chicken. So I usually just get that in a bed of rice.

Which actually isn't so bad on the health-o-meter.
