I'd rather make a burrito at home than eat at most disease-laden mexican joints.

Chipotle is at least a solid quick option for $7 when you don't feel like doing shit. It's very much Americanized Mexican food, and I don't think anyone is claiming that it's A+ cuisine. It's just way better than McDonald's or whatever the fuck.

He's exactly right; most Mexican places suck. Lard and cheese in everything. If you have an impoverished palate then yes loads of cheese and grease tastes good. If you eat more whole foods and rely on spices to bring out flavor instead of salt and sugar, then it really is somewhat disgusting. At least Chipotle tones it down a bit.
