    Idk why it got so popular. Plenty of better Mexican options and you don’t have to pay for chips or get e.coli.

      It’s not even recognizably Mexican. At best, it’s vaguely Mexican-themed. Some of the ingredients are there (including the occasional e. coli), but none of the flavor. “Fresh Mex” is a brain-dead corporate abomination.

        To be fair, I like to go to a Mexican place that serves me something off menu because it is the Chef’s home town food. They had never seen a burrito in their life until they moved to the US.

        Mexico is a big place, lots of variety depending on where you live.
