  • Holy Guacamole! Chipotle Warns That Global Warming Could Affect Avocado Supply

    Science.

    03.07.2014 | News | |

    Who knew that Chipotle was so far removed from Chick-fil-A’s politics?

    Actually, why does anyone really care what these chicken and burrito joints think about social and environmental issues anyway?

    In the latest attempt to scare Americans about a supposed Inconvenient Truth, Chipotle claims climate change will affect the availability of certain key ingredients in their recipes, including avocados. And that means…

    A GUACPOCALYPSE!

    “In the event of cost increases with respect to one or more of our raw ingredients, we may choose to temporarily suspend serving menu items, such as guacamole or one or more of our salsas, rather than paying the increased cost for the ingredients,” quoth the popular chain.

    Chipotle uses an average of 97,000 pounds of avocado every single day to concoct its guac, so you know they’re totally serial, guys.

    So, were you a “climate denier” who now believes in Global Warming due to its alleged effect on your dip? Share with me below.
