Chipotle used to be really good, especially at their original locations in Colorado. Absolute top-tier fast food at a time when that was an oxymoron. Then in the 2010s they started slipping, while their competition started improving rapidly. Now it's but a shadow of its former self.

    Chipotle's food handing was designed for lots of customers over a short period. When they started, their restaurants always had a line. So they always had fresh ingredients and a lower risk of foodborne illnesses because nothing sat around long enough for pathogens to multiply on it.

    By the mid-2010's they had massively over-built, the lines disappeared. They more than earned their moniker of "Shitpotle".

    Back when they used to bring whole ingredients in and make things fresh in the store? They were king of the US fast food at least.

    yeah, it was bland american, but when it's up against mcdonalds and taco bell....

    Now, i'd much rather go to taco bell..
