This policy describes how we create, check and correct the information on MyChipotleMenu. We publish it so readers can judge how much to rely on the site.
Independence
MyChipotleMenu is an independent guide and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. Prices and nutrition are estimates and vary by location. We do not accept payment from Chipotle or any other restaurant for coverage, and advertising never influences what we write.
Original Writing
Every page is written by us. We do not copy text from other websites, and we do not use Chipotle's photos or logos. When we describe how Chipotle serves food, we hedge anything that can vary by location.
Nutrition Sources
Nutrition and allergen figures come from Chipotle's published information, mainly Chipotle's nutrition calculator and the allergen chart. We store each ingredient's values in one data file. Tables, calculators and calorie numbers in our articles are produced from that file, so a figure never gets typed by hand into the text.
Some items, such as the quesadilla and chips with dips, are not listed as a single entry, so we build them from ingredients and label them as estimates.
Verification Flags
Each ingredient in our data has a verification flag. An ingredient is marked verified only after we compare our stored values with the official source. Anything not yet compared is treated as unverified and tracked for review. We would rather admit a gap than present unchecked numbers as certain.
Price Method
Prices are local, so we do not claim a national price. The prices on this site are typical published US prices that we updated on Nov 6, 2026, and they vary by location. They are not the result of our own store visits. We are adding our own multi-store checks, and we will only say a check happened once it has been recorded, with its date and number of locations. The prices feed the calculator estimates.
Until our own check has been recorded, the freshness label says when the typical prices were last updated. Once a check is recorded, the label shows the date and number of locations. Delivery-app prices are not included, because they often add markups.
Update Cadence
We plan to review prices monthly once our own checks are in place, and we recheck nutrition and allergen data when Chipotle changes its published information or when we notice a discrepancy. Significant changes are noted in our menu updates log. See also how we track menu changes.
Corrections
If we get something wrong, we want to fix it. Readers can report mistakes through the contact page. We check the report against the official source, correct the data if needed, and update every affected page at once. Material corrections are noted in the update log.
Health and Allergy Content
We are not medical professionals. Our content is informational and does not replace advice from a doctor or dietitian. Allergen information is limited to a few allergens and does not address cross-contact. We direct readers to the official allergen chart and encourage them to talk with restaurant staff.
Advertising and Affiliate Relationships
The site may show Google AdSense ads. Ads are labeled by the ad provider and kept separate from editorial content. We do not write pages to favor an advertiser, and we do not publish paid reviews.
Use of Tools
We may use software tools to help draft, format or check content. Everything is reviewed by a person before publishing, and the facts and figures are checked against our data.
