Rumors are true! Sign says 'No Carnitas' manager said sign has been up 2 Weeks! Not serving pork anymore! Wake up America! Islam jihad are closer than you think!

Whut?

It's not Muslim related.

The hottest fast food chain in the country has been out of a key menu item for four days at hundreds of its restaurants, and it's still not clear when it will come back.

Chipotle announced Tuesday that about one-third of its more than 1,600 stores would stop selling carnitas, a traditional Mexican dish made by slow-cooking pork until it becomes tender. The popular Mexican chain made the decision earlier this week, after discovering that one of its suppliers didn?t meet its standards for humanely raised pork.

Carnitas is one of just six burrito bases the chain offers.





Chris Arnold, a Chipotle spokesman, wrote in an email that the burrito joint is looking into several different ways to rebuild its supply, including getting more pork from current suppliers, using different cuts of pork (the dish is typically made from the shoulder) and looking for additional suppliers. Carnitas make up about 6 percent of entree orders, he said.

?We are working through those options now, but it?s too soon to say how long this might last,? Arnold said.

It's also too early to tell whether the shortage will hurt Chipotle's bottom line. The company's stock price was down slightly when the market opened the morning after the chain first announced the shortage. Still, at around $711 a share, the Friday stock price was up about 34 percent from the same time last year.

I am sure there will be more to this story. Time will tell. 

*LOL* --- 10 years ago -

Because the jihad are so fond of TexMex, lol. 

Dorothy Parker --- 10 years ago -

LOL! So, because they didn't want to serve nasty pork, it has to be ISLAM????

Thanks for posting the truth, Agent.

I think I'll reserve judgement until we hear the rest of the story.

OMG. This is the stoopid post of the month! It has nothing to do with jihad and everything to do with fair treatment of animals. The owner/s of Chipoltle are extremely involved in their business at a cellular level. This would include how animals are treated on the farm. Good for them for their stand in this and good for them for paying a living wage. I love that place and do business on a regular basis.

Op sounds like a right wing nutcase. What an idiotic post. 

mutton --- 10 years ago -

I love best the pork/jalapeno tamales the woman sells at work... 

SleightOfHand --- 10 years ago -

They ditched a pork supplier because it failed to meet ethical guidelines in the handling of pork. They stopped giving the pigs reach arounds prior to killing them I guess

And it's not like the Atascocita Chipotle was the only one. This has been in the national news for almos a week or maybe more.
