Chipotle never claims to be authentic mex food, so the "it's not real mexican food" argument is dumb.

Chipotle tastes good. That is all that matters.

Because you asked them to put it in? Seriously? Two pages and this thread was over before it even began.

exactly, they even have the version that you can order that has no rice. Seriously, people love to complain.

no tex mex place has ever served rice similar to chipotle's. it's a denver creation, not tex mex.

Dude, it's Chipotle, not Chipotle's.

Actually, in that context it may be OK because he was probably just leaving out the word "rice" ("Chipotle's rice"). It's OK to leave out the possessive if you leave out the object possessed, but either he didn't or he thinks that it's OK to use "Chipotle's" as their name. We can't tell in that context.

They are like Subway and they build it the way you tell them. If they put rice and you didn't ask for it, you failed to communicate what you wanted and they guessed wrong. Big deal.

I guess what they say is true - Southpark covered everything.

i used it as possessive and dropped the word rice as i'd already referred to it previously. is it ok grammatically or not?

Your exact word was "taste" when he asked you what the difference between authentic and not-authentic was. Now, you're saying that it's the people preparing it even though any chain is going to be following the chain's method and not letting the ethnicity of the worker come into play. He went in to the ingredients because that is what the taste comes from and then you just changed your answer. Good debating skills there, bud.

And as for Chipotle's (s is properly indicating possessive here!) quality and health, you should really read up on it. They are the only place I know of that insists on meat and ingredients that were never factory farmed or pumped full of hormones and preservatives. That almost directly translates into health and nutrition. Sure, there are a lot of hole-in-the-wall places in San Diego that I prefer to Chipotle, but they don't even make a peep about where their beef comes from while Chipotle proudly proclaims it on the bag, cup, store door, etc.

So you're telling me that preparation doesnt play a role in taste? The seasoning, the way its cooked etc. Yea "who cooks it" as in the restaurant. The people that work at Chipotle here are all mexican but does that mean it tastes like a real mexican burrito? All the Vietnamese restaurants around here have Mexican cooks.

Quality, thats fine I never said they have shitty quality food but does that directly translates to health? No.
