Making the rounds on the internet today is a story of a guy in California who has eaten Chipotle every day for 153 days in a row. That is a lot of burritos. Is it bad that I am slightly jealous of his diet? I mean, that just sounds delicious. My favorite thing though is on his blog, he lets random users ask him questions, to which he responds:
Anonymous asked: What's the end goal here? Will you go on dates to Chipotle? What do your parents think of this?The goal is to eat Chipotle once per day for as long as I can. That’s it.
I’ve already gone on several dates to Chipotle. NY Mag says it’s acceptable, and Clover determined it’s the 2nd most popular on-demand date spot, so I’m definitely not alone.
As for my parents, I just asked them.
Mom: “I admire you and I applaud you for your commitment to it. I agree that Chipotle has healthy food, so it’s not really an issue. If it were something like McDonald’s every day, then maybe I would try talking you out of it.”
Dad: “Their stock went down 35 points yesterday.* You’re going overboard.”
* I should note that ‘yesterday’ was both the day I announced Chipotlife as well as the day Chipotle announced slightly lower-than-expected Q1 growth. Which is a funny coincidence in my opinion, but not so funny for $CMG. I have faith they’ll bounce back soon though ♥
I admire the effort, and look forward to see how long it will continue for.

The salt content he must be facing, though. Don’t get me wrong; I love me some Mexican food. But I can’t imagine how bloated he’ll be. I would be so interested to see photos and health statistics (water weight!) over the course of this.
