Burrito quest
 
I am a burrito connoisseur. Nothing is better than an amazing burrito. My question is, Who makes the best burrito on earth?

Chipotle?
Qdoba?
Ever had Freebirds in Texas? (they get my number one vote for worlds best burrito)

Illegal Petes in Colorado. They started in Boulder by the university but I guess they have more stores now. Like Chipotle but better quality and they mix it all together so you don't get bites of just one ingredient.

Plus chains are evil. They're killing mom and pop places. :(

I wish Chipotle would mix the ingredients together

Freebirds mixes everything up. I love that place.

LaBamba's.

They got them all over the midwest. We used to fly up to CMI with students to get them. HIGHLY overrated. Well, unless you like 90% lettuce, 9% beans, 1% meat, cheese and the rest of the good stuff.

I have yet to find a better burrito than a Qdoba half chicken, half steak, pinto, pico and x-hot, yes, yes.

The local places are almost always better. Especially if you live in places where the predominant language is Spanish!

x2. Not only because I agree, but I've seen this man eat two in one sitting.

Pachanga's Mexican Grill in the Los Angeles area. Used to eat at the Manhattan Beach location while on day stay or weekend layover.

Awesome salsa as well.

Chipotle. Hands down. Franchise wise.

Then there is Nicks. Just south of Long Beach, CA. They might have two shops now.

Pure money, either way.
