chipotle is my love

it's been way too long since i've worked at Chipotle. that's probably why i got a job at the one by my house - and it's awesome. don't get me wrong, the one at school was super fun, but there weren't enough mexicans working the same time as me. maybe that's why i love working there?

no wait, it's definitely the free food that i get.

i was thinking about how my burrito has evolved over the years and it's pretty interesting to see the change in preference. if i recall correctly, the first time i had chipotle i don't think that i liked it a whole lot. it was definitely the second time i had it that i was in love.

although chipotle is totally delicious, it can totally not be nutritious. so i checked back with the chipotle calculator to see how my most current creation fares in comparison with what i used to get, and this is what i found

although it's not exact, because i don't use full servings of some ingredients, it's the best estimate i got. now in comparison with what i used to get, i feel less guilty about eating Chipotle 4 days a week...

someday i'm sure i'll come around and eat more barbacoa or try the medium-hot salsa, but i'll have to keep waiting for a spicier time when i can take the heat
