What is in the Chipotle food that makes my co-workers tell me it is bad for me? The taste is good and they've removed GMOs.?

Update:

I ALWAYS get a salad bowl with chicken, brown rice, black beans, corn, salsa, hot sauce (to me their hot sauce is mild...but I snack on habaneros...) and grated cheese. Why do these people tell me it is loaded with poison and chemicals....I cannot find any proof....so why do they think a sub full of processed meat, mayonnaise and...'I dunno'..is 'safe' and Chipotle is not?

BTW I will post the answers in our break room middle of next week. Please do not feel that you must 'mince' your words.

    Don't believe what your coworkers tell you, Chipotle is just like any other restaurant you walk into , plus what do your coworkers know about nutritional value in Chipotle? Plus the GMOs i think are necessary because some of our food are genetically modified or companies have done something to our food that may not be good for us but that doesn't mean you should stop eating it altogether. I think everyone has the right to know how their foods are processed and should be labeled GMO.

    I mean, seriously?? You think because GMOs have been removed something is now healthy? Bahaha. Not very educated are you? LMAO. Yeah, processed cheese is so ultra healthy! How lazy are you that you can't manage going to the grocery store and MAKING your own salad? That food is shipped, stored, processed! How natural and healthy do you think it could actually be? Well, a lot according to you. Try doing some research. Some reading besides Facebook and Twitter. No wonder half the world is so obese and dying of heart disease and cancer. Jesus.

    Nothing. Chipotle is an extremely calorie-dense meal, though, so if that's your standard lunch and your most intense physical activity of the day is lifting that bulging mass of burrito to your mouth... you probably will get fat pretty quick.

    Also, GMOs pose literally no health risk on their own. The problem with the GMO comes from the extensive (and usually unapproved) use of herbicides that go along with them.

    I was going to say that some people cannot take the hot peppers and make a joke about 'South Park'.

    But there are some evil people trolling here so, bye.

    Go ask your "sister" who "owns a restaurant". Oh wait, I forgot. She doesn't know anything except how to buy food, cook, and run a cash register. (The marketing, accounting, technology, operations, licensing, personnel, customer service and maintenance fairy takes care of the rest).

    Now stop stalking me, creep.
