Holy Guacamole, Batman!

I'm a huge Chipotle fan.  But it turns out, if I continue eating there, I will soon just be huge, period.

Someone I know told me to Google the nutritional content of a regular Chipotle shredded beef burrito.  So I did, and I came across a website called chipotlefan.com.  They have a "Nutrition Calculator" where you just click on the items in your burrito.  I selected one 13" soft tortilla shell, one serving of shredded or "Barbacoa" beef, beans, rice, salsa, corn, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and I added lettuce, just for good measure.  (How many calories could the lettuce have have, right? )

Here is what popped up on my screen:

Say WHAT?!  1,515 calories, with 68 GRAMS OF FAT!  Why not just eat a tub of Crisco, while you're at it!

And that's exactly what I'm doing for lunch today.  

Mmmmmm.  Crisco.
