Chipotle is a popular fast-casual restaurant chain in the United States that serves up burritos, tacos, and burrito bowls all made according to customers\u2019 specifications. Despite Chipotle\u2019s seemingly never-wavering popularity, the chain has come under public scrutiny lately due to its portion sizes\u2026 as well as a rash of food poisoning incidents that caused the company to pay out $25 million back in 2020. Now, Chipotle is facing a different kind of criticism after a fan of the fast food spot said that employees at their local chain were selling their own food alongside other official options. Chipotle fan reports restaurant after speculating employees sold their own food as \u201cspecial\u201d On January 14, 2024, a Reddit user claimed that their local Chipotle was selling a selection of \u201cmac and cheese, ribs, and mashed potatoes.\u201d Although they said these new items were \u201creally good,\u201d they worried that the employees were making this food at home to sell at the restaurant, and wondered if they shouldn\u2019t report the incident. \u201cThey said it was a \u2018special\u2019 and that that happens sometimes,\u201d they explained. \u201cI\u2019ve never seen it before. I suspect the employees are selling their own food out of the Chipotle.\u201d After reaching out to Chipotle, a representative told the poster that the chain was trying out some new things at certain locations. The poster gave the rep the location\u2019s information, but felt guilty for possibly putting the employees\u2019 jobs at risk. When they returned for more food at a later date, the poster asked a manager about the extra food on offer \u2014 and the manager \u201clooked at me like I had two heads and said that \u2018this is Chipotle.&#8217;\u201d It seemed like the manager wasn\u2019t aware of the extra food being sold at their location, and after some prodding from Redditors, the poster eventually called their non-emergency line to report the restaurant. \u201cIt sounds like I might actually be a victim of this Chipotle falsely selling food to me that they said is Chipotle. Figuring out what my legal options are. I don\u2019t want this to become too big of a deal but it seems like this isn\u2019t right and someone has to do something about it.\u201d While there\u2019s no way to verify if the poster\u2019s story is true, quite a few commenters think the entire thing was made up, while others speculated that the spot might double as a \u201cghost kitchen.\u201d This is just the latest Chipotle-related drama to go viral online after a woman was sentenced to work a fast-food job for two months as punishment for assaulting a Chipotle worker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chipotle customer convinced employees are selling their own food YouTube: DevourPowerTV, blakesmunchiesA Chipotle customer is convinced that employees at their local spot are selling their own food, sparking a storm of speculation and outrage among fans of the popular chain.
