I like Chipotle. Their food tastes great and the ingredients are fresh. I think their burritos offer the best value in fast food dining. After one Chipotle burrito, my appetite is satisfied for almost a week. Here is the nutritional value of the burrito I usually order:

Yep, a whopping 1287 calories, which is a lot considering the average recommended daily caloric intake is around 2000. The way I see it, for about $6 you get two meals wrapped up in one tortilla. You don’t have to eat it all at once, although they don’t last very long in the fridge…
