i got a delicious bol after spending a few days in upstate new york where chipotle is few and far between. also, the door on the way back from the bathroom changed again and now just says "hip"

I love it.

chipolte becomes chipote becomes hip

chipolte becomes chipote becomes hip

so, first it was chipolte and then it was chipote but now the sign just says hip. craziness. one of these days they’re going to have to get a new sign.

hey chipotle - you're on notice!

The World Dairy Diary tipped me off to a Drovers Alert which has this warning:

Food with integrity?
Chipotle Mexican Grille says the company’s philosophy is “food with integrity.” Famous for its large burritos made with all natural ingredients, the company’s promotions include billboards with unique, funny and often zany messages. But the most recent billboard campaign is seen by many as “over the top.” Chipotle’s newest billboards ask: “Did you want antibiotics with your lunch? We didn’t think so.”

i went to the bathroom in this store today and noticed a change on the sign. it used to read chipotle (my picture of the sign from January). since then someone has edited it to read “chipote” (by removing the l):

i’m not sure which is worse - the inappropriate use of the word chipolte or removing the l (which gets it kinda closer to the right spelling) but which leaves it as a word with an empty space.

chipolte? chipo te?

i don’t really want them to fix it at this point because the incorrect sign is somewhat of a funny mistake to me now.

this is the sign coming back into the chipotle from the bathroom. it says chipolte. there’s a part of me that thinks that’s really really funny and then there’s a part of me that says “holy shit fix that blasphemy right now”. mostly just the funny part, though.
