All I'm saying is that it's more unhealthy that anything else that is being listed in this thread.

Higher calories, yes. But it ain't fried, and if you have a little self-control, it's probably a better choice in the long run."My nation is the world, and my religion is to do good." --Thomas Paine

Just because something is fried doesn't automatically make it worse.
For comparison none of Chick-Fil-A's sandwiches are over 500 calories.
The Chipotle burrito is probably worse in the long run, but people think its healthy because, well, "it ain't fried" or whatnot. Not true.
Here we go:
1,179 calories
47 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.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Doesn't make it less unhealthy than the other chicken meals listed on this thread, which was my entire point.
And it isn't just calories (yes, it is half of the daily recommended value). The Sodium is 600 mgs ABOVE the daily recommended value. The carbs and far are also pretty high as well.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

I thought the chipotle burritos were more like 2000 calories. Only 1200 isn't bad.
If people exercised a bit, that would be fine.
And 1200 calories is nothing compared to some of the meals you get served at the chain (or not chain) sitdown restaurants.
The sodium is a lot, but if you compare it to other things people eat (a bag of chips for example) it isn't bad.

Depends on the meal. You can avoid eating that many calories easily. After all, the Chipotle burrito was listed as the Men's Health Worst Mexican Food (just counting chains, I'm sure).
And of course most of the chicken sandwiches we are talking about are 500 calories... or less. The BK Thundercrisp, though, may be closer to 700ish.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.

Again, the complaint is the calories. Limit your intake the rest of the day, and you're golden.
Also, a 1000 calory, filling lunch will make you torpid after lunch. Much harder to do work<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.
