[quote=Anonymous]We keep talking about $50 as if it is some magic number. It costs more than $50 to feed my family of 4 at chipotle. Though, my daughter and I only eat half a bowl, so, we get two meals out of it. Comparing it to homemade is hard. If you were going to offer all the options Chipotle offers (and you were buying EVERYTHING, even spices) of course it would be more than chipotle. If you pick one protein (like chicken) and have everything else you need on hand then it is certainly cheaper. Ultimately it depends on what you buy weekly as your staple items. We always have sour cream, beans, rice, onions, avocados, peppers, spices, shredded cheese, corn, etc. on hand because I am from the Southwest and cook a lot with these flavors. Homemade chipotle bowls are something I make with leftover meat. It is cheaper than chipotle, but, I'm certainly not offering the variety that chipotle does.[/quote]
