Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

How did Chipotle manage to make that burrito 1500 cals. Wtf are they putting into it.

The veggie burrito has more calories than the meat burritos.

It isn't true according to the calorie calculator on their website.

Not really.

Smallest difference is 150 calories for steak, and the largest difference is double carnitas at 420 calories more calories than the veggie.

If you get a veggie with guac, it is more calories than any single-portion meat burrito without guac. But of course if you get guac on the meat burrito, it will have more calories.

Right? It's also just a big burrito.

Doesn't even need to be fast food for a burrito to get crazy though. Carbs and protein cooked in fat, covered in fatty protein, fatty carbs, a little more fat, garnished with some dietary fiber mixed with fat and then wrapped up in some hot, dense carbs glued together by fat is gonna have a lot of calories. Can also have a lot of great nutrients, and you need all those fibers, fats and proteins but damn is it heavy.

All the best foods seem to be geared towards an era of our existence when you'd wake up at dawn, burn 2000 calories before 11, eat lunch and nap for an hour then work off another 3000 calories before eating dinner at 5 and breaking even.

Carbs are high calorie, have 2 in one dish can be brutal.

The tortilla is 320 calories, the rice is 210 calories.

Also, guac is 230.

Edit: If you try, you can get higher than 2500 calories.

I've never seen one in real life so maybe it's larger than the picture makes it out to be.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago

It is pretty easy to make them two meals.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They definitely are very large.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

About the size of a 5 year old's forearm.
