Chipotle Customer Alleges Drastically Smaller Portions in Viral Meal Prep Kit Complaint
A recent social media post has brought renewed attention to consumer concerns regarding portion sizes at popular fast-casual restaurant chain, Chipotle. A woman, identified as Gabriela, shared her disappointment after purchasing a "build your own burrito" meal prep kit, intended for her partner's weekly meals. According to Gabriela, the portions of cheese, lettuce, chicken, and rice provided in her kit were considerably smaller than what she had observed in promotional videos and other online content. 'Every video I've seen, the containers are heaping,' Gabriela stated in her video, contrasting it with the sparse contents she received. She emphasized that the primary reason for choosing the kit was for its protein content, which she found severely lacking. 'It's like one tiny, thin layer of chicken,' she commented, pointing to the shallow amount in the container. She also noted that the rice was barely an inch thick, despite promotional materials suggesting containers filled to the brim. Gabriela further detailed her frustration with the customer service experience, reporting that attempts to contact the store directly were met with unanswered calls and a referral to leave an online review. This incident adds to a broader conversation among consumers about perceived 'shrinkflation' and inconsistent portioning at food establishments, particularly when orders are placed for pickup or delivery rather than in-store. Chipotle has yet to issue a public statement regarding this specific complaint, but the video has garnered significant attention online, sparking debate among viewers about their own experiences with the chain.
