7 Reasons Why Chipotle Is Overrated
Abc News

To all the people that I am sure will be offended by this article, I'm sorry that I'm not sorry. I believe Chipotle is overrated. There, I said it. Sue me for all I care, as long as I never have to set foot in a Chipotle ever again. I consider myself to be basic, but Chipotle is one of the few things on the basic train that I just cannot get behind, and here is why.

1. The Chips Are Not Free

Yes, I get that their chips can actually taste quite good with the hint of lime flavor, but why in the world would I want to pay extra for chips? Isn't the whole point of Tex-Mex to get free chips? (Point to Moe's for having free chips.)

2. They Made Burrito Bowls Popular


Why? Again, if I am getting Tex-Mex, there better be chips or a tortilla. The best part of a burrito is the tortilla. Why not call it a Tex-Mex bowl, a nacho-less bowl or a taco-less bowl because if it is definitely not a burrito in a bowl. (Point to Moe's for giving free chips with the burrito bowls so you can make it into nachos.)

3. The Rice Has Cilantro

A ton of people hate cilantro, so why include it in the rice? I get you can ask for rice without it, but honestly that seems annoying. I would probably get made fun of and the workers would spit in my food. (Point to Moe's for being reasonable humans and realizing you can add cilantro but cannot take it out.)

4. The Toppings Are Weak

There are slim picking for Chipotle toppings. For example, I love tomatoes, but if I want tomatoes at Chipotle then I have to get it in a mixture that includes cilantro. (Point to Moe's for having tomatoes by themselves as God intended.)

5. There Is No Salsa Bar

To quote Donald Trump, "Wrong." (Point to Moe's for understanding what the people want, which is a free salsa bar.)

6. They Don't Have Queso

Why do you have so much hate in your heart Chipotle? To quote my friend Danny, "Who hurt you?" (Point to Moe's for having an abundance of love and queso.)

7. The Food Is Not That Great

The food does not even taste that great to begin with. (Point to Moe's for having yummy food.)


To sum things up Moe's - 7 Chipotle - 0.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
