We’ve been had.

I highly recommend you all jump into your private jets/hovercrafts/electric scooters and make a trip to Lincoln, Nebraska where you can have Oso! Oso is 1,000,000 times better than Chipotle for numerous reasons:

• Fresher ingredients
• It’s not owned by McDonald’s
• They don’t make the main component of your burrito nasty soggy rice like Chipotle does
• Their guacamole. For real. It’s the best I’ve ever had. Unlike Chipotle’s it has flavor
• They serve beer too
• Nice vegetarian selection
• Interesting  and unique selection for those who are uninterested in the regular meat, beans, and whatever burrito deal. Example: one of their burritos has cabbage, curry, garlic and your choice of meat.

Now, granted I am biased. I am a vegetarian and I never feel like Chipotle has that much to offer me. I’ve eaten there in Lincoln and out of Lincoln and I have never liked it, but that’s just my opinion.

If any of you are ever in Lincoln, seriously call me. I will buy you a burrito from Oso.

Who am I to pass up a burrito held in such high regard?

McDonalds does not own Chipotle any longer. They were merely an early investor: http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=194775&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=916004&highlight

I do love Chipotle. We have one in Harvard Sq and I do go there on occasion. But we also have a place called Felipe’s which has quite awesome burritos for about 2 bucks cheaper. Granted in terms of quality of the whole burrito I hold Chipotle in higher regard just because I like their rice better and they use more of it. However Felipe’s is probably gonna win me over more often do to price and near-Chipotle quality for said price.

Erick you wanna weigh in on this?
