This was our go-to Chipotle until today. Picked up some burritos, got home, and they not only strangely didn't taste good, they were soooo spicy, it was painful to eat them. All that was in it was beans, rice , lettuce, avocado and grilled peppers and onions, - no meat, no salsa, no extra spicy stuff- so I'm guessing it was the peppers, but it was wayyy off, like someone had put spicy peppers or sauce in it as a joke. It made me feel nauseous, and I couldn't eat it. We have eaten at Chipotle a hundred times and this was something wrong....
By now it's too late to go back so I call the restaurant to let them know that something might be contaminated or something. The supervisor on duty, Nathan, clearly wasn't concerned, (this despite my mentioning I have health conditions that preclude me from eating crazy spicy food like this) didn't seem to believe me, and spent ten minutes mansplaining to me first how they aren't in control of the spice, then that they only add salt or oregano; am I sure I didn't add salsa, did I watch what the girl added, etc.... When I finally managed to get him back on track to what he was going to do to make it right, he first offered to refund me then said he couldn't since it wasn't a call-in; next he said if I came tomorrow they could remake it, but first, I can't go tomorrow, and second, even if I could, I'm not really sure about going back here anymore. The call ended with him saying he'd talk to his higher-ups.
Jesus.
What is happening to the world? What used to be a simple one-minute call and reassurance they'd look into it and make sure the food was safe, has become a confused lecture by an inexperienced, nonchalant idiot, and no getting your money back.
Not going back.
