They said they'll run the promotional Trotpoltle in a few select locations only for a limited time. It's said to be a hit with those who miss the Runsupa.

They've found a new niche. For those with chronic constipation, it's faster and easier than under cooking a chicken.

It wouldn't be authentic Mexican cuisine f it didn't give you the runs.

Chipotle slapped with lawsuit following calorie miscount: Report

Only 300 calories for a chorizo burrito at Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG)? Not so fast.

Three California customers have filed a class-action lawsuit against the food chain, accusing it of not appropriately representing the number of calories in its chorizo burrito, according to MyNewsLA.

Photos of Chipotle's menu boards at several restaurants show an image of a chorizo burrito and a calorie count at the bottom.

Representatives from Chipotle did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment. However, they did respond to several Twitter followers.

"I'm sorry for the confusion, but we'll make things more clear next time," the company responded in one Tweet. "The 300 calories is for the chorizo."

The three customers are seeking unspecified damages and an injunction that would prohibit Chipotle from posting misleading information about its products.

Embattled Chipotle CEO admits HALF its restaurants have poor service a year after E. Coli devastated the chain

Why the fuck can't Chipotle prevent disgusting bacteria from proliferating in its cooked and served food?

Does it want to really re-create an authentic Mexican experience?

Overpriced shitty burritos mostly stuffed with rice and deadly bacteria.

Probably poop-laden Mexican veggies. We should really let 18-wheel trucks operated out of Mexico by Mexicans drive on our highways.

Massive Numbers of People Will Never Eat At Chipotle Again And That Should Terrify Investors

Chipotle (CMG) may have finally removed preservatives from all of its food, but investors should be wary of the company that once served up E. Coli to 60 burrito-hungry customers. That's especially so after shares of the embattled burrito giant have surged about 5% over the past month on a lack of any upbeat news.

"We have always used high quality ingredients and prepared them using classic cooking techniques," Chipotle Founder and CEO Steve Ells said in a statement Tuesday highlighting the chain removing preservatives from its tortillas. "We never resorted to using added colors or flavors like many other fast food companies."

Ells may want to consider refraining from dissing rival fast food chains until Chipotle stabilizes its own business.

While Wedbush analyst Nick Setyan views Chipotle going "clean" with its food as a way to "get them back on the right path," he told TheStreet that challenges still lie ahead for the company.

"Obviously there are headline risks," Setyan said. "There's probably some five to 10 percentage of customers that will never return."

While Setyan, which has a neutral rating on Chipotle stock, expects the burrito chain's same-store sales to improve slightly - in the low- to mid-single digits - in the first quarter, profit margins will remain pressured throughout the year due to the resulting company turnover from the E. Coli scandal.

Setyan suggests "holding off" on buying shares of Chipotle until 2018, at least, as the company continues to invest in hiring and training.

The analyst's views are held elsewhere on Wall Street.

"We expect a slower than targeted same-store sales recovery along with higher costs associated with new food safety programs to keep margins below historical levels of 20% plus," wrote Jefferies analyst Andy Barish in a February note. "We believe current valuation is not capturing the fundamental operating changes and potential risks."

Barish has an underperform rating and $300 price target on Chipotle, implying a 31% decline.

Chipotle shuts down restaurant after customers get severely ill

Chipotle has closed a restaurant in Sterling, Virginia, after multiple reports of customers getting sick after eating there, the company told Business Insider.

Customers reported symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, severe stomach pain, dehydration, and nausea to the website iwaspoisoned.com, which first alerted Business Insider to the issues at the Sterling restaurant. One person reported two hospitalizations as a result of the illnesses.

In total, eight reports were made to the website indicating that at least 13 customers fell sick after eating there on Friday or Saturday.

Chipotle told Business Insider that it was aware of the illnesses and had notified local health officials.

"We are working with health authorities to understand what the cause may be and to resolve the situation as quickly as possible," Jim Marsden, Chipotle's executive director of food safety, said. "The reported symptoms are consistent with norovirus. Norovirus does not come from our food supply, and it is safe to eat at Chipotle."

He said the illnesses were isolated to the Sterling restaurant and the company planned to reopen that location on Tuesday after sanitizing it.

Customers who fell sick after eating at the Sterling restaurant reported "vomiting violently," fevers, "violent stomach cramps," and dizziness for several days.

"Friday 7/14 Daughter and friends went to Chipotle," one customer wrote on iwaspoisoned.com. By the next morning, the person said, the daughter was "violently sick, puking, diarrhea, severe pain, overnight into Sunday." The customer added: "Friends ill as well with one friend also in ER."

The daughter was hospitalized Sunday for dehydration, nausea, and pain and on Monday was still in "severe pain," according to the customer.

"This is the worst that I have ever seen," the customer wrote.

Norovirus is different from E. coli, the bacteria that led to a widespread outbreak at Chipotle restaurants in 14 states two years ago.

The virus is highly contagious and causes symptoms like stomachaches, nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting. It's the most common cause of foodborne illnesses in the US, with more than 21 million cases annually.

Cases of norovirus stemming from restaurants can often involve a worker who failed to wash his or her hands after going to the bathroom.

Shitotle hires homeless people for $13 a day and they shit in the beans because they're charged for lunch and don't eat there.

What about Del Taco? Is that safe at least?

24   FuckTheMainstreamMedia   2017 Jul 18, 8:52pm  

I'm probably in the minority, but Chipotle is still delicious and I'm still eating there.

If I ever get sick, I'll just run to the local realtors office.

UPDATE!!!:

Over 100 Report Being Sickened at Virginia Chipotle

Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. CMG -1.50% reopened the location it temporarily closed this week in Sterling, Va. after learning of a small number of customers who complained of getting sick after eating there.

But its latest food safety incident may be worse than expected, as the number of reports of illness associated with that store last week continue to rise.

Chipotle closed the Sterling location on Monday for a “thorough sanitization” after learning of anonymous complaints posted on iwaspoisoned.com, saying it suspected the culprit was norovirus, a common virus that can be spread through food that has been handled by people who are sick. The location reopened on Wednesday.

As of late Wednesday night, Patrick Quade, the founder of the food poisoning website, said the site had received reports of 133 people sickened at the Sterling Chipotle.

I think that's the main issue, but could also be unsanitary workers. Maybe having lived in the SF bay area among feces for so long gives you some sort of immunity.

Don't believe I've read a line like this before. LOL! More like crossing your legs.

I've only ate there once, did fine. Didn't really like it to be honest though as far as flavor goes. And I'm sure everyone here cares about what I think of Chipoltle.

It's overpriced Taco Bell, and in the one I went to it had only one bathroom, and it was a single person bathroom too. Not good when you consider what they serve gives you the runs.

While I'm sure it's awful for you and totally processed, I've had some decent tasting Taco Bell before at least. I'll give Chipotle another chance, but after 2 or 3 times and the product is what it is, I'm done. I'll send my report back in 3-4 years as that I believe was about the last time I went to one.

Chipotle is now rolling out $1000 cash bonuses and enhanced paid and parental leave to everyone, specifically citing this is due to tax reform.

I'm pretty sure they're sourcing the veggies from abroad, and it's being handled by Dreamers.

(Dreaming on knowing to wash their hands, dreaming of soap to do it with)
