No, seriously, I want to fuckin know

I can't taste DICK from there except for their lime salt chips. The steak, chicken, and barbocoa are flavorless af. The queso is flavorless. One or two of the salsas are flavorful.

But yea to always pack em in, lines to the door on the daily. It makes no sense. I'm losing my goddamn mind here

As someone whos never even been within spitting distance of a Chipotle but has heard nothing but how much Americans love them this is surprising to me, and oddly comforting. This whole time I thought I was missing something great

The meat is spicy, and the flavor comes from the stuff you get with it. Beans, corn, veggies, cheese, and salsa all got flavor.

I know Chipotle sells itself as Mexican, and Mexican food has lots of spices and seasonings, but in a lot of other Latin American countries, food is actually pretty muted. In Honduras, for example, they are not known to season their foods very strongly and go for a more muted taste. It's really only the touristy areas of Latin American countries that go ham with the spices for branding purposes mostly.

I grew up with food that tasted very similar to Chipotle (I'm Honduran) so it's actually my favorite restaurant. I can't stand queso or the salsas of other places.

so you spent your whole childhood with flavorless food and as soon as other food presented itself to you, you were like "nah i hate taste" and continued to flavorless traysh

Almost any time Americans rave over a chain restaurant, or you drive by and see cars out to the street from the drive through, all your missing is average tasting yet over priced food. It's almost a guarantee. Five Guys, Starbuck, Chipolte, Chick Fil A, etc

Americans also have this weird infatuation with fast food that's not in a fast food setting. As if that changes the quality of the food.

Last time I had it was in 2012, and the only thing Ive ever tried was their chicken/beef fajitas, which they would put rice and tomatoes in, maybe some kind of salsa.

Anyway I remember those being okay for me back then, definitely contained smoked paprika but then a ton of stuff in American food does, gives that hotdog taste. That is a flavor, albeit not to everyones liking and mundane in American food. Personally I like it in some stuff in great moderation.

The closest Chipotle to me had a huge variety of Tabasco sauces, but got rid of them because they were being stolen.

Chipotle is okay. I don't know why the workers are so stingy with the meats, not like it comes out of their pocket. Maybe they are being watched but god damn dude can you put a bit more in there for my 8 bucks?


The way they make a burrito is entirely incorrect also lol.

Enjoy your high blood pressure from oversalted food then. Don't know what else to tell you. Food itself naturally has flavor.no need to drench it in sauce.

Why? It's rolled up like any other burrito I've seen.


Its not as badly rolled as Moes, but they just stuff the meat/toppings in the middle and fold around it, there is no finesse because its just a Subway for Tex mex. it doesnt compare to a burrito from even a place like Chevys, much less an authentic Mexican joint. A chipotle burrito is essentially a wrap.

The beef is literally cooked with peppers and have spices added to it. It's sad that you think stating facts is inflammatory. If you don't like it, you don't like. But don't spread lies.
