15 Reactions We Have When Chipotle Lets Us Down

Dear Chipotle,

We love you. No, like, seriously––we f*cking love you. Even when you let us down, you better believe we’ll be coming back for more next week (or maybe tomorrow). Literally, not even an E. coli outbreak could keep us away from you! That means something, right? However, on the sad occasion that you do let us down, there are certain emotions that we just can’t help but feel. What are they? Read below to find out:


That initial “How could you?” feeling of a shitty burrito/bowl

We trusted you… and you broke that trust.

Wondering where you went wrong in life

All we were was hungry and now we’re full and sad. 

Feeling betrayed by your OTL

Honestly, where do we go from here?

Wanting to scold the workers when they’re out of something

What do you mean there’s no lettuce? *Swears*

Screaming because your bowl is half empty

You call that extra rice?

Getting hangry AF when the line is out the door

We need our Chip and we need it NOW.

Feeling judged by the worker making your food

Can you, like, stop judging us for our one-of-a-kind burritos? 

When there just isn’t enough guac

Stop asking us, “Is that enough?” when we ask for more. It will never be enough. Keep piling.

The frustration when your online order is f*cked up

Chipotle, you literally had one job. 

Visiting a new Chipotle location that just doesn’t meet your standards

Sometimes, it seems like no Chipotle will measure up to your local Chipotle.

When your chips are salty AF, you are salty AF

“Do you want some chips with your salt?”

The sadness of disproportionate portions

It. Doesn’t. Taste. The. Same. 

Crying when your burrito falls apart

We did not pay 7 bucks for this shit. 

Getting full after two bites

WTF stomach!? We didn’t even get to enjoy it yet! 

Still being hungry after wiping your bowl clean…

It goes both ways.

We love you, Chipotle. Thank you for existing!
