Everyone knows Chipotle’s guacamole is extra — but how extra is it really?

A TikToker who goes by the name “The Chipotle Guy” shared the spicy behind-the-scenes secrets of the fast-food chain.

The user, who claims to work at the chain eatery, posted a series of clips about what goes into the making of the restaurant’s tasty guacamole and why it costs a pretty penny. In the first of three videos he posted, he revealed that making the guac was a highly requested clip.

AND speaking as a native El-Alien, while edible chipotle guac is bland and hardly some culinary accomplishment.

Hardly rocket science. Mashing up avocados with a handful of other ingredients.

Chipotle guacamole? Really? Here in Phoenix we have no shortage of really good Mexican food, and my daughter wanted that for her birthday. La Pinata’s guacamole is 10x better than Chipotle’s, and the chips are fresh made too, and the price is comparable. I also hate the industrial warehouse look of Chipotle’s interiors, and their dining space dominated by high stools.

I enjoy Copykat recipes but sometimes they’re just not even close.

I love the chili sauce that Taco Bueno puts in their burritos. Think hot dog or frito pie chili with some finely ground beef added and no beans...but better, and thinner. I think we did use it for frito pies back in 1979-80 when I worked there. Of course decades later I can’t remember how we cooked any of that stuff (all from scratch).

Anyway, the Copykat was a disaster. Not even close.

My first job back in 1979 was at Taco Bueno. I made my share of guacamole. Everything there is made fresh.

As an employee, this guy has a duty of loyalty to his employer. Where does he get off taking it upon himself to divulge this business’ recipes and processes - and use the internet to display it to potentially millions, world wide? He doesn’t own the business. Does he really think they hired him to do this?

This is troublesome. And when Americans sell out processes, recipes, technology, trade secrets, etc to China we feel betrayed.

First you eat a whole lot of soylent green and wait about an hour. Do not flush. Scoop up the famous guacamole and serve chilled. You are welcome.

I wonder if this was a publicity opportunity by the company?

Almost any guacamole is good unless it is spoiled. Then even a small amount will kill a whole room full of people.

I don’t disagree with that.

It being a social media phenomena was another matter entirely.
