Grabbed lunch at Chipotle today... they put nutritional/caloric info on their menus - *very* helpful.
You can pick & choose any combination of things to put into your taco/burrito/bowl and know exactly how much you're eating. (The link is not on Chipotle.com but the values are the same as what's printed on the menu - check out the sodium [!])
Helpful and frightening - the calorie listings for chips & salsa and chips & guac. Always seems like a small thing to add to a stripped down chicken bowl - until you see that just chips & salsa adds over 600 calories to your meal. Because who eats just half the small bag of chips?
Holy. Shit. One order serves two, and it's 295-325 calories per serving. If you inhale the whole thing, which of course I've never done... it's 590-650 calories. The chips & guac is 720 calories! Sweet fried corn christmas.
So I didn't order that. Thank you, Chipotle. My ass also thanks you.
