There's nothing better than Chipotle. The fast-casual Mexican grill has become everybody's go-to place for its fresh ingredients and tasty food, proving that you can't really go wrong with anything on the menu. But, it's not a good idea to order everything on the menu. There's one food that employees urge customers not to get when they go to Chipotle, and we totally see why!

The next time you decide to go to Chipotle, you might want to pass on the quesorito. This secret menu item has become very popular recently for its cheesy goodness. It's essentially a burrito with a cheese quesadilla as the outer wrap, and it's literally so, so good. Unfortunately, it's not the easiest or most time-efficient menu item for employees to make.
“It backs up the line like no other. If it’s not busy, you’re fine but PLEASE do not order a quesorito during our peak hours. Employees will hate you," says Thedudeiscj on Reddit. "The people behind you in line will hate you. Everyone will hate you. There’s nothing wrong with it health/sanitation wise, but too few people order it for our damned managers to rearrange and optimize our food line for quesorito production."
The quesorito struggle is real! "It's literally like rolling hot lava, go to taco bell please they have them too. Besides it's like 1800 calories...," says another Chipotle employee, according to Thrillist. They do raise a good point about the calories...
So, the next time you get a hankering for a quesorito from Chipotle, don't order it at a busy time. But if you must have one, make sure you're doing it in the nicest way possible!
