Another reason why I'm glad I don't watch TV.

That just looks nasty Brad. I think you cured my never-to-be-filled craving.

I think if fast food places put the calorie counts out on the menu everyone would be dropping weight like no tomorrow.

Though in comparision... I found a Chipotle caculator and...

My burrito has 69g of fat, and 1385 calories. Though eating it over 3 meals like I do... 460 calories 23g of fat. Still not that great.

Chipotle is owned by McDonald's.

Yup. But it isn't McDonalds. It's Chipotle.

Actually, this just in, McDonald's has divested itself of it's majority interest in Chipotle Grill. I supose this means you won't have to avoid it on principle. I will continue to avoid it because it is misnamed. It ought to be called Cilantro Grill. (I'm not a fan of cilantro.)

You're not gonna be talked away from that burrito, are you?

McDonald's owns Donato's Pizza, too, and Dontato's is NASTY. I'm staying away from Chipotle on principle.

BTD, you live in SoCal--can't you get a better (and potentially better for you) burrito in your town?

I'm hooked on Indian food right now. I hope that it's more healthy than the fast food stuff discussed in this thread (a whole day's worth of fat from one piece of extra crispy?? Sheesh!).

I don't eat at McDonalds, actual McDonalds. It's been 4 years now (I think). It's all principal now. I look at saying Chipotle is owned by McDonalds is the same thing as saying Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut and Long John Silvers are all owned by the same company. Ok, sure, but different food (and I don't eat at any of them).

Oh ya, I can, and do on a regular basis. But there is something about Chipotle. It's like crack. In a bol. Their portions are so big that it's 3 meals and sometimes 3 meals and a snack for me. And while I can get amazing burritos and mexican food I also enjoy a burrito from Del Taco. It's all a matter of what kind of Mexican I'm in the mood for.

I'm hooked on veggie Pad Thai and veggie rolls from the local sushi joint.

I want to try one just to see. It's so awful sounding! Must try for myself!

But now I'm actually craving pad thai. But I don't feel like cleaning myself up enough to go get some.
