Adventurrito

  • Museum of Naturally Raised History

    Speaking of Naturally-Raised History, and dinosaurs for that matter, we're pretty concerned with the colossal amount of fossil fuel energy required to produce meat. So much so, that we're currently working on a four-part miniseries that takes a humorous and outrageously twisted look at that issue, as part of a larger spoof of the unsustainable world of industrial agriculture. (stay tuned). According to Professor David Pimental, what is the ratio of fossil fuel calories needed to produce one calorie of meat?

    28 to 1

  • Carnitas Call Center

    Nowadays you can connect with Chipotle Catering by calling 1-800-CHIPOTLE (yes, the "E" isn't necessary, but 1-800-CHIPOTL looks silly). Before we set up that number, you had to call the restaurants directly. Imagine it is 20 years ago and you want to call Steve Ells, Chipotle's founder. What is the sum of the digits of our first restaurant's phone number?

    25

    Giuseppe Arcimboldo, who just made the varsity squad, was riding to the farmers market on his skateboard when he realized that he forgot to put his water bottle in his pepper print tote bag. What would this scenario cost at the Chipotle gear store? (no tax, no shipping, and currently on sale)? $115.56

  • The Rumor Mill

    When Steve Ells founded Chipotle, he was on his own. As the company grew, he was determined not to franchise—which could have raised quick cash. Instead, he opted to seek out private investment. One very large company invested in Chipotle in 1998, allowing the company to grow rapidly without franchising, and then COMPLETELY sold their interest in 2006. What was that company (this should be really easy if you've been paying attention)?

    McDonald's

  • Free Range Press

    In 2011, Steve Ells, was invited to testify before Congress about what topic?

    Our animated short, "Back to the Start," had some real-life inspiration. Sustainable hog farming is real, and a simple search can show you the truth. Who is the farmer that partially inspired this film?

  • Open Pasture

    Chipotle is the only national restaurant company committed to buying locally on a significant scale. Last year, we purchased over 15 million pounds of local produce such as bell peppers, jalapeños, oregano, red onions, romaine lettuce, cilantro, lemons, avocados, and tomatoes. How many miles from a restaurant does Chipotle define as "local"?

    Putting clues for Adventurrito in the hand-drawn art of our basket liners was pretty tough to pull off. Which of the following pieces of Chipotle packaging did everyone but professional designers think was misprinted because of the lorem ipsum placeholder text?

final answer:    Steve ells founded Chipotle in CO in 1993. The first menu did not have barbacoa. In fact, there were no meat dishes at all. Happy 20th Chipotle. 

 

I typed this in and got "phew, you made it.  our elite mathemagicians are calculating your score in the chipotle supercomputer"

 

There's 5 "S"s in that sentence and only 4 in the word bank

i can confirm i worked through all of the letters and they are used uip: "Steve ells founded Chipotle in CO in 1993. The first menu did not have barbacoa. In fact, there were no menu boards at all. Happy 20th Chipotle."

I checked and rechecked to make sure every letter was used once.

The letters are indeed all there, and I googled around to confirm that the original Chipotle indeed did not have room for menu boards. Looks like a solid final answer to me.

some of the pop quiz might have been wrong. apparently even if you fucked up on the quiz it still let you proceed to final final answer.....

The official Chipotle twitter made it seem like you had to get the quiz right to even attempt the final answer.

@GlutenFreeLI: Joe- can we get 1-19 wrong & try again to submit , then work on 20 (has to be right) or do we only get 1 pass at 1st 19? @ChipotleTweets

@ChipotleTweets: @GlutenFreeLI You need to get 1-19 right before you can play 20. - Joe
