do you eat at Chipotle?

..and no one considers it Mexican food. That's why the term "California Burrito" exists.

Burritos, fajitas, nachos, and most of what Americans call "mexican" are not mexican foods. They are Texican/Tex-Mex or Californian.

Lower quality food though.

But it actually tastes good. I'll take lower quality food that's is tasty over so called higher quality food that is extremely bland. Chipotle is bland and expensive.

I realize the average income and cost of living in Los Angeles is super low, and there's not much good mexican food, but Chipotle isn't that expensive, and it's pretty good mexican food.

A couple weeks ago, a friend surprised me with some Chipotle. It was so amazingly bland, I can't believe anyone eats there. I'm just glad it wasn't my money.

I got some Chipotle tonight:

Salad, fajitas, 1/2 Carnitas, 1/2 Barbacoa, Mild salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.

Is it the best Mexican around? No, but its fairly healthy and filling. Not many low carb fast food options. My only real complaint is that it takes too long to order...theres always a long line. I would go where the Mexicans go if I was going to eat carbs.
