If you're only getting rice & beans when you go to Chipotle, you've missed the point of Chipotle.
The same hyperbole could be applied to any restaurant from Subway to Red Lobster. "Can you believe they have the nerve to charge $6 for iceberg lettuce and mayo?!" "$25 for biscuits?!" How do these people stay in business?
And as always, it's not about what a business can afford, it's about what consumers will pay and what employees will work for.
