Good numbers start with clear assumptions.
Every meal total uses a centralized ingredient record with a serving size, nutrient fields, source URL and review date. This page explains what those numbers mean.
The source edition
Baseline: the official US Nutrition Facts Paper Menu PDF at Chipotle’s document host. The filename contains 3-2025; the internal document imprint is OCT-2024-US. Access and transcription were reviewed October 29, 2026. We do not describe these recipes as newly verified for 2026. Current seasonal products and every location’s menu could not be fully verified.
Serving and format rules
The standard bowl has no base nutrients. Burritos add one large tortilla. Salads add 3 oz supergreens, without dressing. Tacos add three selected shells and one set of entrée fillings shared across them. This taco filling rule is an explicit modeling assumption. Half and double controls are linear estimates, not verified serving promises.
Addition and uncertainty
Each nutrient equals the sum of ingredient value × selected portion. Calories are summed directly from source values. Numeric zero, missing (unknown), not applicable and less-than bounds have distinct representations. A missing nutrient propagates as Unknown. Less-than values produce a range. The macro ring uses 4/4/9 gram-to-energy factors and is labeled separately.
Records intentionally excluded
No adult quesadilla base, complete kids bundle, seasonal protein recipe or location-specific branded drink is inferred. Selected iced tea records come from the official table and are marked location-dependent. Queso topping and side records stay separate because rounded values differ.
Allergens and corrections
Milk, soy and wheat references are limited to identified ingredients and the official allergen guidance. Absence of a listed reference does not mean allergen-free. The official page warns about cross-contact and limited-time products. Source changes should be reviewed, transcribed, tested and documented before the next release.
