Chipotle?

Well, I am guessing that not all Chipotle locations are as vegan friendly as others... I had what I was told was a vegan burrito for dinner, but ended up being so sick to my stomach and so gassy.

So today (and probably the rest of the week) will be 100% raw, I need to let my body heal from that ordeal.

Has anyone else had this problem? How did you handle it?

  • ya i do not know about Chipotle .... i heard that there brown rice is actually just fried white rice. I would stick to eating at home or a place where it is more reliable than fast food chains. I once had a bowl there with beans and rice and i felt fine. So overall stick with food that you now is safe. 

    • Let's just say that I learned my lesson with Chipotle!

      I visited a bigger city over the weekend and found some wonderful cooked vegan meals at family-owned restaurants. The meals seemed to be pretty low in oil and salt, but were still flavorful and nutritious.  And I felt great after eating them!

  • you could just be very sensitive to any oil, because they're supposed to have actual vegan options, rice included. but worse case scenario, it was cross-contaminated with meat or dairy.

    i eat there sometimes. i've had good experiences and bad ones.

  • I had a bowl of rice from chipotle last week and it made me feel sick as well. I found that eating melons really helped me to feel well again. Stretching, deep breathing and yoga also helped my mental state. Feel better!
    • Their rice has a pretty good amount of oil in it. If I eat there I skip the rice but get a burrito bowl with sofritas. Then when I get home, I just add rice that I cook myself and lots of romaine if I'm craving greens (: I do get some salsa on it and honestly, I don't always feel great afterwards. I often have a weird film in my mouth. Maybe the salsa is too much for a lot of us (garlic, onions, salt, vinegar)?

    • Thanks - I am glad that I am not the only one this has happened to, but I am disappointed that we have to go through this.

      I am feeling much better!
