The 20 Worst Foods in America

16. Worst Mexican Entree
Chipotle Mexican Grilled Chicken Burrito

1,179 calories
7 g fat
125 g carbs
2,656 mg sodium

Despite a reputation for using healthy, fresh ingredients, Chipot­le's menu is limited to king-size burritos, overstuffed tacos, and gigantic salads—all of which lead to a humongous waistline.

Make Over the Menu:

There are two ways to make a Chipotle burrito healthy enough to eat:

(1) 86 the rice and tortilla and request your meat, vegetables, and beans served in a bowl, or
(2) Bring a friend and saw the burrito in half.


Hi Guys,
Can you believe this- 1,179 calories in one meal sitting? It's no wonder that obesity is becoming one of America's fastest health challenges not only for adults, but unfortunately for children. Let's be more mindful of what we eat and remember to eat to live and not live to eat. If we do that we are on our way to becoming Winners at life. Enjoy your weekend.

Stay Blessed!
Joyce
