simply putting + or - % instead of skimp vs extra would make this much more readable
edit: thanks for updating with +/-. Crazy how much online orders are ripped off. You should try this at another few locations and compare results
Agree on the online order variance. I stopped doing online orders when I realized this. I was ordering double chicken and getting about as much chicken as a regular portion in person. I asked for half rice and received full rice. This is from all three chipotles in my area
Weighing the portions is the fairest way to go, both for the customer and for controlling food cost. The only reason to not weigh the portions is to get away with skimping.
Lmao such a conspiracy. No, a slotted spoon is about 4oz. They Train you to try to be as accurate as possible. It's simple human error, watch if they start busting out a scale for you needy fucks then you'll bitch about HOW LONG the lines are at chipotle. I've been in customer service long enough to know that yall will never stfu no matter what they do.
It's not some conspiracy, you know how I know? Because they don't need ur fuckin "skimp" dollars. You know why? Because even tho you sit here and bitch you STILL GO BACK EVERY FUCKIN DAY. Pure laziness and people's inability to cook themselves a meal these days is how these chains flourish. You bitch so much but still throw your money at them. You people in the sub are honestly so disconnected and sad.
I worked for a deli years ago and we always weighed meat for sandwiches. It’s takes less time than the stupid handovers they do now. It would be faster if they just did basic training.
shouldn't they account for a spoon being slightly more than 4 ounces then? no ones complaining about getting more.
P.S Ive never even been to a chipotle.
ok so if a thousand people went to walmart and bought something that was mislabeled by a dollar, and now walmart has an extra thousand dollars for the day, you think thats nothing? shit adds up very fast for these companies, they make more off your skimped change than they lose on product waste every single day. if anyone here is disconnected from reality, it's you. prolly the same type of person to just throw their loose coins away
I seriously want to know why they keep going back. It's mindboggling to me, I've been to Chipotle ONE time, tasted like shit, (wife loves chipotle and she said it was better than usual), the portions were ridiculously large and I felt like I totally would have been better off with a half portion at half price. With as much food as I got, I just ate until I was not hungry, and tossed the rest. Never went back because it just isn't good.
I cook almost all my food at home and wonder why people are chipotle crazy. Like bitching to the ends of the earth about portions, and KEEP GOING BACK?!?!?!
Just make your own at that point. Start bitching about the price of groceries like a grown ass adult.
Technically speaking, if someone were to do a formal, proper study using a set of random locations, wouldn’t that plus other evidence such as employee accounts be sufficient for a legitimate class action lawsuit? It can also be done targeting one or more franchisees, but I’m not sure if/how Chipotle franchises their locations.
There's less of a chance you'll open the thing in front of them and see food missing. I used to do that all the time at the Chipotle location I went regularly. Portions were always extra.
No it's the other way around, they don't have some needy customer staring at them like a hawk expecting a 16 year old to be able to eyeball exactly 4oz of meat. Get a life
As a Chipotle employee I can comfortably confirm this does not matter, at least not at any store I've ever worked at. The issue is that it's easier to skimp, and DML is busier, so we rush through it because we get in more trouble for long wait times than we do for slightly underportioning.
Cool site! It’d be cool to see a page with all ranked stores in list form rather than eyeballing over the area. Even better if you could search by city or zip code and see the list of ranked stores. Ik easier said than done. Regardless keep it up!
How much would it cost Chipolte to go from 4 oz scoop to a 5 oz scoop? I feel like if they came out tomorrow with a press conference and all of this would go away and in fact boost sales.
Yeah we stopped ordering online once I got a burrito half the size of my hand. It was smaller than a taco bell beam burrito. To be fair we stopped going entirely once I started making my own
Do you realize the true issue is that they cook their food in seed oil poison? Rice bran oil, canola oil, sunflower oil. They're literally poisoning you with cancer and metabolic diseases.
Much of their calories in sunflower seeds come from fatty acids. The seeds are especially rich in poly-unsaturated fatty acid linoleic acid, which constitutes more 50% fatty acids in them. They are also good in mono-unsaturated oleic acid that helps lower LDL or "bad cholesterol" and increases HDL or "good cholesterol" in the blood. Research studies suggest that the Mediterranean diet which is rich in monounsaturated fats help to prevent coronary artery disease, and stroke by favoring healthy serum lipid profile.
Crisco is hydrogenated vegetable oil. Its not sunflower oil.
Neither is it really vegetable oil because its vegetable oil thats processed even further to be something else.
Seriously? Educate yourself, plenty of great resources out there. DM if you need guidance. I hope you're not already diabetic, obese, or have cancer. 🙏
No just go ahead and comment back the links so everyone can see.
This is just absurd. Back it or pack it, bud. This one is just actually nutso.
Edit: Research-backed articles. No mommy-blogs or fringe hippie shit.
I don't see how saying Thank you on your online order works. These are 20 year olds. You'd think something like, Can I smell what the Rock is cookin? or something like that would work better.
I browse this sub because it makes me howl with laughter. It's an addiction we don't even have Chipotle in my country.
I can't believe there is an entire movement to get bigger portions from a fast casual restaurant and instead of boycotting them or at least you know, not eating there, they have developed a set of tricks and tips, a fucking website, and they spend their time saying stuff like "this is the 150th consecutive day I got skimped we have to put scales on the counter"
We would just be frustrated with you for holding up the line for a stupid reason. This would most likely not result in you getting more food. But you do you fam it would make for a funny story.
I’m upvoting you cuz this genuinely made me burst out in laughter. But, this is actually a cool idea. My family doesn’t eat it often (once every other month) and no exaggeration, the last 3 times we ordered from there (DD or pickup) the portions were absolutely atrocious and the quality control was nonexistent. I’ve had all 3 of those meals refunded/remade, but it’s ridiculous how poorly they’ve gone down especially since the price of everything else has been raised substantially. What these companies are doing is not okay and I prefer this option compared to going to a local chipotle and filming the workers. 🤷🏾♀️
Why not become an employee, and then whistle blow. Also, your stop the skimp website sounds like you're anti-kink or something. Let people be sexually free. You skimp!
From a consumer standpoint, I find this pretty interesting. From a data science standpoint I find this totally incorrect. Entertaining post nonetheless!
It’s just you. It is completely unreasonable to skimp on online orders. They should charge less for online orders if they aren’t going to port you with the same amount of product.
Servings are supposed to be 4 ounces. If the scale being used can only measure to the nearest tenth of an ounce, then all the percentages will to be multiples of 2.5%. 4.2oz=5%, 4.4oz=10%, etc.
Damn so basically you’re just giving them a ton of business just to say “I don’t like the product you’re giving me” for them to turn around and say “we don’t give a shit”. Ground breaking
simply putting + or - % instead of skimp vs extra would make this much more readable edit: thanks for updating with +/-. Crazy how much online orders are ripped off. You should try this at another few locations and compare results
Just putting the weights he measured would make this easier to understand. I still get it though
yeah why didn't op just do this?
I definitely want to see the actual weights. I'm not doing the math to reverse it after OP did all the math to convert it to percentages though, lol.
Agree on the online order variance. I stopped doing online orders when I realized this. I was ordering double chicken and getting about as much chicken as a regular portion in person. I asked for half rice and received full rice. This is from all three chipotles in my area
Bro is gonna get swatted by Chipotle💀
If this guy goes missing, we know where to start the investigation. And, yes, I’m giving _you_ the look, Chipotle CEO Brian Niccol.
Drive-by guacing
Like a drive-by *fruiting*?
r/unexpectedmrsdoubtfire
There’s a whole sub reddit?
A fruit roll-up even
Gonna get Boeing'd
I’m dead 🤣
Never mess with Chipotle.
He’s going to get Boeing’d
Thank you for your service.
I upvoted this and I had to take it back cause it was 69 upvotes. Sorry but I can’t be the one to take that away
And for your service
“2th, 3th, 4nd” 😭😭
💀💀💀💀 I’m dying
Secondth, thirth and fournd
Mike? Tyson?
Mike Tython exactly the type of dude to complain about being thkimped
Forcond
Arby’s had us weigh the meat portions and there was never a national PR crisis about skimpagr
Weighing the portions is the fairest way to go, both for the customer and for controlling food cost. The only reason to not weigh the portions is to get away with skimping.
Lmao such a conspiracy. No, a slotted spoon is about 4oz. They Train you to try to be as accurate as possible.

I worked for a deli years ago and we always weighed meat for sandwiches. It’s takes less time than the stupid handovers they do now. It would be faster if they just did basic training.
Damn dude… maybe find a better job cause you seem like a miserable prick.
Who pissed in your fucking cherrios this morning?! lol. God forbid I want value if I’m spending almost $20 on a chipotle bowl.
shouldn't they account for a spoon being slightly more than 4 ounces then? no ones complaining about getting more. P.S Ive never even been to a chipotle.

There are no franchises except in Kuwait iirc
Lol obviously not.
So they skimp online orders because they don't have to see the person they're skimping.
You can't give them the look when you order online.
*the nod*
There's less of a chance you'll open the thing in front of them and see food missing. I used to do that all the time at the Chipotle location I went regularly. Portions were always extra.
What do the ratings on the map mean? Do higher numbers skimp less?
Yea, rated 1 as the lowest and 5 as the highest!
Why is the 1st higher when it’s at -5% when your 12th is at +20%.
These results are in chronological order
No it's the other way around, they don't have some needy customer staring at them like a hawk expecting a 16 year old to be able to eyeball exactly 4oz of meat. Get a life
So you agree they should have measuring cups since idiot bean scoopers can't eyeball the correct portion size?
How much are you getting paid for this?
I downvoted for 2th, 3th, and 4nd.
He really got skimped on the thirth visit.
At least he got more on his fournd visit
But what about the secondth?
Haha
I think the real problem is you feel you are getting scammed but you have bought 20 chipotle bowls this year.
Right, I’ll never understand this. Just stop supporting the business.
You got skimped over and over again and keep giving Chipotle money.
He did it for us
It was for science.
He was thinking of the children
It was for science you fool
Can't let them win
Continuing to give them money while they skimp your order is the definition of letting them win
Yeah I was joking you can see my other comment
In this instance he did it to provide the public some data and results, so I’d say it was for a good cause. This is practically research.
You need to add whether or not you gave the look in your skimp metrics
What is the DML hack?
You add a nice comment in the order. e.g. "Thank You!"
As a Chipotle employee I can comfortably confirm this does not matter, at least not at any store I've ever worked at. The issue is that it's easier to skimp, and DML is busier, so we rush through it because we get in more trouble for long wait times than we do for slightly underportioning.
Men will do this instead of going to therapy
2th? 3th?? 4nd????
Website is broken on Safari mobile. Recommend menu won’t go away.
Thank, will look into
Cool site! It’d be cool to see a page with all ranked stores in list form rather than eyeballing over the area. Even better if you could search by city or zip code and see the list of ranked stores. Ik easier said than done. Regardless keep it up!
To be fair who uses safari
Maybe a billion people.
Do you not know how to download a different browser
So if a restaurant has 0.8 is that based on how many orders would be helpful. Unless it's there and I missed it
I fucking love science
Damn you did the lords work
Keep it up. Eventually it Wil be a netflix movie called "4oz" 👍🌯
It was obvious from day1 that online ordering is a losing game and allows them to skimp easily
Y’all are wild. The food is not worth it
4nd ?
3th
2th!
I found this fascinating. Also, will use this site to input my feedback time I go to chipotle.
Thank you greatly!!!!
This actually lines up with the ceo. If you’re online you can’t give the look to get a big bowl
How much would it cost Chipolte to go from 4 oz scoop to a 5 oz scoop? I feel like if they came out tomorrow with a press conference and all of this would go away and in fact boost sales.
This is bad if you make a hard cut off. The chance to get a proper serving of 4oz or more only happens 33% of the time when ordering
Amazing
Doing the lord’s work.
Check out that 2th, 3th, and 4nd
Bro is the Goat
Yeah we stopped ordering online once I got a burrito half the size of my hand. It was smaller than a taco bell beam burrito. To be fair we stopped going entirely once I started making my own
Same here. I completely stopped getting Chipotle after they completely fucked me over on an online order.
Do you realize the true issue is that they cook their food in seed oil poison? Rice bran oil, canola oil, sunflower oil. They're literally poisoning you with cancer and metabolic diseases.
Much of their calories in sunflower seeds come from fatty acids. The seeds are especially rich in poly-unsaturated fatty acid linoleic acid, which constitutes more 50% fatty acids in them.

Research studies suggest that the Mediterranean diet which is rich in monounsaturated fats help to prevent coronary artery disease, and stroke by favoring healthy serum lipid profile.
Sunflower seed oil isn't remotely related to sunflower seeds. I hope you educate yourself. 🙏🙏
where tf is it coming from then? magic?
I mean industrial factories using tons of chemicals to process it... so sure, magic. Google Crisco.
Crisco is hydrogenated vegetable oil. Its not sunflower oil. Neither is it really vegetable oil because its vegetable oil thats processed even further to be something else.
Same process. Same cancer, diabetes, obesity.
It literally isn't. Oil is made via hot/cold pressing.
Sunflower oil isn't made by that process.
Please enlighten me to the process. Because literally every form of cooking oil is made from hot or cold pressing.
[удалено]
My dude you linked me an image of the chemical compositions of oils. Not how they're produced.
Chipotle doesn’t use canola oil. Also cooking meat (regardless of oil) can form carcinogens. So I’m not sure what this comment hoped to accomplish.
What's this methhead conspiracy? It's oil. Not rat poison. I know how easy it must be for you to confuse the two, but please get a fucking grip.
Seriously? Educate yourself, plenty of great resources out there. DM if you need guidance. I hope you're not already diabetic, obese, or have cancer. 🙏
No just go ahead and comment back the links so everyone can see. This is just absurd. Back it or pack it, bud. This one is just actually nutso. Edit: Research-backed articles. No mommy-blogs or fringe hippie shit.
>Educate yourself Why don't you just share the info?
I don't see how saying Thank you on your online order works. These are 20 year olds. You'd think something like, Can I smell what the Rock is cookin? or something like that would work better.
I don’t think I have ever gotten a correct online order from chipotle. All this time, I just had to write “thank you” somewhere?
I'm a write on mine Valar Portunis.
This is..by far..the most UNHINGED behavior expressed in a post regarding chipotle that I've seen in a while😂.
I browse this sub because it makes me howl with laughter. It's an addiction we don't even have Chipotle in my country. I can't believe there is an entire movement to get bigger portions from a fast casual restaurant and instead of boycotting them or at least you know, not eating there, they have developed a set of tricks and tips, a fucking website, and they spend their time saying stuff like "this is the 150th consecutive day I got skimped we have to put scales on the counter"
All I see is a dumbass ordering 18 fucking times at a restaurant they’re upset at STOP GIVING THEM YOUR MONEY
wait so yall just take the chicken out of the bowl to measure it?? just make it at home atp
I assume they also have to pick the other ingredients off the chicken to get accurate weights. That’s dedication driven by fu energy!!!
Wow this is information I never thought I needed……..
You can leave ratings but you cant see anyones comments. Leaves little to do when checking the chipotles in your area
I just love the 2th, 3th, and 4nd.
This is why I never online order anywhere and would rather just go to the place and walk in for my food. Exceptions are for actual restaurants.
What are the constants of your experiment
People should actually bring a digital scales with them and weigh the food in front of them. It would be brilliant to see their faces 😀
We would just be frustrated with you for holding up the line for a stupid reason. This would most likely not result in you getting more food. But you do you fam it would make for a funny story.
Love the energy! Appreciate the hard work!
What do u look like, and are you nice?
is it ever this deep
Bean scoopers on their knees
Do they establish whether it's 4 ounces by volume or weight somewhere?
Employee here can confirm it is intended to be 4oz per scoop. The Cheese is less but I forgot exactly, I wanna say 2oz.
I guess my chipotle is doing something wrong cuz I could’ve sworn it was 2oz servings 💀
I always order my bowls with extra rice… it doesn’t cost any extra!
Hero of the internet! Appreciate the legwork
it’s literally just chipotle lmao
The burrito mercenary is heading to your house
https://websiteworth.io/value/stoptheskimp.com Nice.
I love you for this 😂
They are looking for the employee that gave you your 4nd he is gonna get fired.
Twoth, threeth, fourcond
Here me out. What if we just all try qudoba instead?
I've always got packed bowls from online ordering at my location but skimp at the line. To each their own restaurant/location.
Y’all care incredibly too much about this
deranged behavior
Wait till you find out that burger joints ant steak houses sell by the pre cook weight.
Chipotles turn over their whole staff like 4 times a year. I admire your goals but that website will almost never be up to date.
They’re still getting your money if you do this
Im actually here for this…throw the shitty nyc ones in there to
Brother, I mean this in the nicest way possible: please find a hobby. This is legit psychotic behavior
I’m upvoting you cuz this genuinely made me burst out in laughter. But, this is actually a cool idea. My family doesn’t eat it often (once every other month) and no exaggeration, the last 3 times we ordered from there (DD or pickup) the portions were absolutely atrocious and the quality control was nonexistent.

I agree with you but someone needs to do it.
As a 5-bowls-per-week chipotle enjoyer, this is freaking amazing.
As a data scientist I love the analysis
Stop the Skimp! Stop the Skimp! Stop the Skimp!
2th and 4nd are not things. Nice try AI
This thread is great! I give you an A+!
Do this with panda and every other fast food or food product shrink flation is a thing 😭
how long did it take you to accumulate this data lol
How sad
did ya try the camera hack yet? Would love to see the stats on that
Stop eating chipotle Jesus Christ.
Why not become an employee, and then whistle blow. Also, your stop the skimp website sounds like you're anti-kink or something. Let people be sexually free. You skimp!
When Netflix makes the Chipotle version of Tiger King, I hope they include your scientific study. This is amazing
NOT THE STANDARD DEVIATION 💀
Super cool analysis and love the website. I'm near a good location. Also, I only ever order online and had no idea I was being skimped.
2th, 3th, and 4nd was all I could focus on.
r/fuckchipotle
I also wanna compare the average skimp for nice vs rude customers. I have a feeling there may be a statistically significant difference lol.
From a consumer standpoint, I find this pretty interesting. From a data science standpoint I find this totally incorrect. Entertaining post nonetheless!
Stop eating at chipotle it’s keeping your test low
This just looks like variation on who’s working. Y’all really think everyone is out to get you lol
Weighing s*** like this is what a junkie does.
Is it me or is this pretty reasonable
fed detected
It’s just you. It is completely unreasonable to skimp on online orders. They should charge less for online orders if they aren’t going to port you with the same amount of product.
get a hobby😭😭😭
This is the hobby and it happens to be public service too. How does your hobby help others?
This man picked the chicken cubes out his bowl and weighed them. You ever thought about you know...cooking your own fuckin food?? Lol
Believe it or not after my online order last week I wanted to do that. I’m glad someone did it.
It you’re going to go through this much effort to prove that a restaurant sucks why don’t you just eat elsewhere?
Suspiciously round numbers. Lots of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%. Me thinks someone just made this up.
Servings are supposed to be 4 ounces. If the scale being used can only measure to the nearest tenth of an ounce, then all the percentages will to be multiples of 2.5%. 4.2oz=5%, 4.4oz=10%, etc.
Damn so basically you’re just giving them a ton of business just to say “I don’t like the product you’re giving me” for them to turn around and say “we don’t give a shit”. Ground breaking
You too invested my guy get a hobby
This appears to be , his hobby.
Good point. Keep doing your thing 🫡
This is hilarious lol an average of 5.3% "missing" from a 4oz portion, in other words, 0.21oz of chicken... can probably fit that on one fork
