How much does it add to get double meat? I didn't know that was an option. If it's a dollar extra or so I might be convinced to start going there more regularly again.

I should add that I never have cheese, sour cream, guac, or any of that other stuff on my burritos.

Chipotle's cheese and sour cream is absolutely awesome.

I never said three burgers was normal, that's just my personal preference. I'm saying $7 for a tiny burrito is abnormal. If Chipotle's burritos were maybe $5, I could order two. For the price, it's a ripoff.
Your "personal preference" tells us what it takes to fill you up normally.

My second point is revealing how disgusting people have to be in order to get obese. I'm saying that 2000 calories takes considerable effort to eat, unless eating Chipotle where the majority of the calories are in starch and beans. Also, the degree of filling depends on how much food is spread over a day. With a large breakfast and a snack bar, a burrito is fine. A single bagel with cream cheese is pretty much a meal on its own. I'm not saying that I would expect most people to eat a similar amount, I just think it's pathetic knowing that fatties chow down heavily all day in order to reach their degree of fatitude.
Except that your example of "considerable effort" *included* Chipotle! You were basically saying "I stuffed my face today and still couldn't eat enough calories to get fat." To me, it sounds like Chipotle was filling if you were having trouble seeing how others could possibly eat more.

So am I gluttonous or am I not eating enough? I don't even know what you're trying to argue now.

Exactly my point: Then and now, you contradict yourself. If you admit that you are wrong about Chipotle serving sizes not being enough to fill you up then everything magically reconciles. It's like saying that a $0.79 42oz drink from McDonald's* is not enough to quench your thirst just because some other place is selling no-name brand 2-liter bottles for less and then you have some old post about it wondering how anyone could drink more than 42 ounces.

*some McDonald's still have them this large but not here in the South East. They dropped to $0.79 every summer when I lived in San Diego.

lol, I Googled 'chipotle double meat cost' and this appeared as result #5:

http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2233142

Using their calculator and holy shit, $10.60 for a double meat burrito. What a fucking rip-off.

without clicking, I assume that is with guac and others. Guac is more expensive than meat, so I never get it. I always thought that the double meat was just the same price as what they charge for each meat--e.g. chicken = $1.30; carnitas/steak = $1.75 extra. I never get it, though, because I still feel it is too much food.

You could always add sofritas, too. It's tofu...it's not horrible, but well, it's food. fwiw, I absolutely hate brown rice, but I find it very palatable at Chipotle. There's an opportunity to get real nutrition out of what Qubert calls "filler food" They also don't charge extra for brown over white.

I can't imagine putting together a $10 burrito. It would have to have everything...maybe even 3x meat? ...actually, that makes sense: guac is at least $2...more than that, I think? and at least ~$1.50 for 2x meat. I'm usually paying ~$7 max for a burrito bowl, usually with carnitas or half carnitas/chicken. This is my typical order:

white rice
black beans
fajitas
carnitas (or carn/chicken)
pico de gallo & verde (sometimes that corn salsa)
cheese
lettuce

And yes, I always eat it way too fast and yes, I always feel a little shitty later. :D

fwiw I think I've mentioned before that I used to like Chipotle more until their portions became smaller (a, b, just so that you know I'm not making something up to fit the argument at this particular moment). That particular post was from 3 years ago so maybe I got a larger burrito that day. Maybe the fact that Chipotle managed to fill me up made me particularly astonished that other people can eat so much so easily. I don't remember the exact details of that particular burrito I consumed at that time.

No, I just did it myself using their 'order online' function and $10.60 is what it came out to for beans, brown rice, and double barbacoa, no guac or anything else. I guess prices are a lot higher here than San Francisco, which seems really hard to believe admittedly but I dunno. :hmm:
