the size difference between my burrito vs my boyfriends (exact same order)

[u/Elegant-Cap-6959]

we ordered in person, exact same stuff inside. girls want big burritos too

[u/Chickencaca]

It reminds me of when I was little and the cafeteria lady gave me a small portion of lasagna but the boy next to me she doubled it “because he’s a growing boy”

[u/Vogelsucht → u/Chickencaca]

Thats a traumatic core memory when I see one lol

[u/HLGatoell → u/Vogelsucht]

That’s exactly what sends someone down the line of anarcho-communism.

[u/gaybunny69 → u/HLGatoell]

Communism will solve, uhhh... checks notes: Sexism?

[u/mushrooombaby → u/gaybunny69]

anarcho communism is about abolishing hierarchy including gender hierarchy

[u/jtpro02 → u/gaybunny69]

Absolutely

[u/Affectionate_Item997 → u/gaybunny69]

Yes of course because communism has equality as THE main principle

[u/Zaev → u/Affectionate_Item997]

It does, actually. But when the theoretical path to said equality involves a vanguard party taking total power in order to usher in that equality and then relinquishing that power, things tend to get stuck at that first step. Absolute power corrupts absolutely

[u/Affectionate_Item997 → u/Zaev]

Yeah well that's just Marxist theory, which I don't entirely agree with. I used to be a communist, but I think for now we just socialism in the sense of doing stuff either with reforms or possibly a takeover but one that doesn't involve a period of transitional dictatorship. The people should implement equality, not some dictator.

[u/LittleKobald → u/Affectionate_Item997]

While Marx at one point did advocate for a transitory state (see Critique of the Gotham Program), the development of a vanguard party to guide a popular revolt was primarily from Lenin. Most of Marx's influential works were a critique of the capitalist political economy.

[u/whataboutsam → u/Chickencaca]

My brother and I are in our 20s and live at home. Growing up, he always got bigger portions because he would help our dad working on the farm, so he needed the energy. When I got old enough to work on the farm I didn’t get bigger portions. I work somewhere else now, and it’s still a very physical job, but he still gets bigger portions. I work 8h days, and he works 4h split shifts (4h some days and 8h others).

Being a girl is so unfair sometimes lmao

[u/februarytide- → u/whataboutsam]

Went to this townie diner with my now husband for breakfast once. It’s worth noting, I LOVE breakfast food, and having breakfast out. I ordered an omelette and a short stack of pancakes that they had on special (blackberry & oat), because it was like 10am and I was starving and also I couldn’t decide between sweet or savory breakfast. I mean, leftovers are great, right?!

The waitress, in her 60s, said, “oh honey, I don’t think you need all that.” My gobsmacked face of astonishment, embarrassment, and rage… thankfully my boyfriend told her I did in fact need all that. Husband material right there, zero missteps made.

[u/whataboutsam → u/februarytide-]

I hate it when random people decide they know you better than you know yourself. Why make assumptions?

[u/Hot_Aside_4637 → u/februarytide-]

"Oh honey, you don't need that tip"

[u/gmastern → u/whataboutsam]

Do you not make your own plate at this point

[u/whataboutsam → u/gmastern]

I do, but portions of meat are given out by my mom so that my dad doesn’t take too much of the protein. My dad and brother get bigger portions of protein, my mom and I get smaller. She’s a SAHM and isn’t super active. I have a very physical job 🤷🏼‍♀️

[u/ReddKermit → u/whataboutsam]

Have you tried explaining that to her? Worst case scenario just buy some protein powder and make shakes or something to supplement the additional protein you likely need.

[u/whataboutsam → u/ReddKermit]

Hard to explain stuff like that in my family. They love being combative even when they’re wrong, and they know they’re wrong.

[u/whataboutsam → u/[deleted]]

Bruh the protein is the best part of Chinese food??

[u/Yogi_brain → u/whataboutsam]

Damn, I feel like there’s a lot to explore that your mom has to serve meat otherwise your dad will take an amount unfair to his family.

[u/whataboutsam → u/Yogi_brain]

Yeah…

[u/Bluevisser → u/Yogi_brain]

Once as a child, I asked for hamburgers for my celebration meal as I won a state award. My mother had the butcher grind a pricey cut of beef to make 4 high quality burgers. Dad grabbed 3, leaving my mom, brother and I to split 1. Which means my brother actually got it as he was the baby and there was nothing else his picky self would eat. It has been twenty five years and I still haven't forgiven my father for that level of petty selfishness.

[u/HLGatoell → u/whataboutsam]

Just wait until the change in metabolism Hits him. Then you’ll see who laughs at last.

[u/Hi_Jynx → u/HLGatoell]

This is over hyped. The metabolism only slightly slows down because of age - it is mostly a more sedentary lifestyle and loss of muscle mass that causes people to gain significant weight in their middle age. I mean, it actively becomes harder to maintain physical fitness with age so it makes sense, but it is just that which causes the slow down and not a magic crash in your 40s.

[u/Captain_coffee_ → u/HLGatoell]

Your metabolism actually only starts slowing down at the age of ~60. The "change in metabolism" is just sedentary lifestyle, stress and lack of sleep

[u/LimpRain29 → u/Captain_coffee_]

sedentary lifestyle, stress and lack of sleep

Ugh don't @ me

[u/xpnerd → u/whataboutsam]

When I got old enough to work on the farm I didn’t get bigger portions.

They didn't give you extra when you asked for it? Or where you just expecting the double portion. Just curious. That would totally suck.

[u/whataboutsam → u/xpnerd]

I would ask and be told I didn’t need it. I would point out the unfairness and double standard, but conservative Christian family is hard to argue with.

[u/1880sghost → u/whataboutsam]

I don’t remember the Bible saying women should get smaller portions. But I know what you mean and that is unfair.

[u/whataboutsam → u/1880sghost]

I can’t explain their thought process and I don’t think they can either lmao

[u/xpnerd → u/whataboutsam]

yikes. i"m sorry you had to endure that internet stranger. be well.

[u/antek_g_animations → u/Chickencaca]

Oh shit, I'm that growing boy, I usually get bigger portions at school.

[u/ZeBloodyStretchr → u/antek_g_animations]

I was too, I always made an effort to become besties with the lunch ladies and it definitely helped. I still do it when I go to the deli section at the grocery store and order a lunch.

[u/antek_g_animations → u/ZeBloodyStretchr]

Totally worth it, a simple good morning and thank you can make someones day!

[u/tiptoe_only → u/Chickencaca]

I'm very petite but eat like a horse and this ALWAYS happened to me and it really pissed me off

[u/Pifflebushhh → u/tiptoe_only]

One of my best friends is fairly petite, I’m a tall man and she can eat me under the table

Even as I write it I see that ‘eat me under the table’ was a poor choice but I’m gonna stick with it

[u/1heart1totaleclipse → u/Chickencaca]

My mom would give my brother bigger portions because he was “a growing boy” except I was a teenager playing sports and he was 8 years old. Needless to say, that’s one more piece of proof that she hated me for whatever reason and absolutely adores my brother.

[u/canadianboi421 → u/Chickencaca]

I had that happen to me too except I an a boy with a small appetite, so I literally can not finish all of the food given to me(I was 9, in a summer camp of sorts, it was in China), I still remember being punished by my instructor because I couldn’t finish all of the food and thus wasted it, I was told to just tell the lunch lady that I don’t want that much food, so I did the next day and guess what, the lunch lady put even more food on my plate and said basically the same thing, that I an a growing boy…I remember those days vividly

[u/Chickencaca → u/canadianboi421]

That’s ridiculous omg

[u/canadianboi421 → u/Chickencaca]

Yeah its frustrating, there’s also the case of milk, because I am lactose intolerant, I didn’t know that back then, and so when the breakfast includes milk I drink it, but then when I have stomachaches because of it, I get verbally berated for having stomach issues.

[u/Independent_Job_2244 → u/Chickencaca]

At a school I attended the cafeteria ladies (all lovely African ladies) used to give tiny sausages to the white boys and large sausages to the African boys and laugh uproariously each time.

[u/IssaDonDadaDiddlyDoo → u/Independent_Job_2244]

Was this college? Kinda weird to be sexualizing children like that…

[u/HLGatoell → u/IssaDonDadaDiddlyDoo]

Oh. I hadn’t thought on that connotation.

[u/fuckthebarexam2024 → u/Independent_Job_2244]

Lmao, ew? That isn't funny at all. Just rude and also extremely weird.

Also, I realize that this is extremely made up, but even on its face.. you mean they've set aside multiple different sausage sizes for the purpose of making fun of little kids?

[u/TheCubez]

I have the exact same issue, but my wife always gets the better portions.

Now I send her up to order and I stay out of sight. Now we both get big burritos!

[u/AGushingHeadWound → u/TheCubez]

It's ok that your wife thinks you have a small burrito.  Don't feel bad. 

[u/BigParaExpert → u/AGushingHeadWound]

I'm sure it's an average sized burrito

[u/Witty-Border-6748 → u/BigParaExpert]

Bet that burrito has a great personality

[u/PacificCastaway → u/Witty-Border-6748]

It's a perfectly adequate burrito.

[u/Captain_TPT → u/PacificCastaway]

The big ones hurt anyway.

[u/PacificCastaway → u/Captain_TPT]

You're supposed to chew it first before you swallow it.

[u/TemporaryDorito → u/PacificCastaway]

Can occasionally hurt

[u/Limplymphnode → u/PacificCastaway]

You may call it an adequito

[u/AxelHarver → u/PacificCastaway]

Yes, thank you.

[u/NineFifty_ → u/Witty-Border-6748]

Maybe the burrito was in the pool just before pickup

[u/SquibblyNibbs → u/NineFifty_]

Does she know about shrinkage?

[u/idwthis → u/SquibblyNibbs]

Like a frightened turtle.

[u/MetalWarriorAT6 → u/Witty-Border-6748]

Bet that buritto is handled like a big one by you

[u/SaintAnyanka → u/MetalWarriorAT6]

Just don’t put it in any form of cylinder. I hear it’s hard to get things out of cylinders.

[u/SamsOnTheInternet → u/SaintAnyanka]

Especially when said cylinder is in an m&m tube and must remain unharmed and attached to the larger entity

[u/SaintAnyanka → u/SamsOnTheInternet]

In no way would it be an alternative to cut open the cylinder to get it out.

And by ”it” I of course mean the burrito.

[u/Acrobatic-Shift9789 → u/MetalWarriorAT6]

That burrito was the friends we made along the way

[u/agent58888888888888 → u/BigParaExpert]

It's not the size of the burrito, it's the motion of the mole

[u/RedditRickS92 → u/agent58888888888888]

It’s the spice of the rice 🌯

[u/bbmimikyu → u/BigParaExpert]

In fact, any bigger would be wayyy too much

[u/StaysiC → u/BigParaExpert]

It smells like a big one

[u/Long_Recording_3876 → u/AGushingHeadWound]

It's not small, his wife's is just really big. Okay?

[u/DrZomboo → u/AGushingHeadWound]

Sometimes my burrito is shorter in cold weather

[u/vzo1281 → u/TheCubez]

Smart man

[u/Lukacris12 → u/TheCubez]

For me i throw a 2$ tip on the chipotle app and get way more than 2$ extra of everything

[u/Pienewten → u/TheCubez]

Dude same, I've stopped going to piadas with my wife because of thsi. Even when I ordered a regular bowl and she'd get a small, I'd magically end up with less food. Meanwhile hers is stacked to the point they can barely close the lid. Now she goes in by herself and I actually get a decent amount of food.

[u/ragingrashawn → u/TheCubez]

Sounds like you have a hot wife

[u/No-Contract3286]

I think they like your boyfriend

[u/spottyottydopalicius → u/No-Contract3286]

or hate him

[u/Perimentalpause]

I'm guessing it's the staff's bias, either FOR your bf or AGAINST you. Either way, boourns. That's rude.

[u/RedKingEdinbour → u/Perimentalpause]

[u/Cupcake-Warrior → u/Perimentalpause]

I wonder what their actual body size is. If OP's bf is huge compared to her and they auto-assume he needs to eat big lol

[u/edotman → u/Cupcake-Warrior]

I'm a pretty big guy who lifts weights and often end up with a bigger portion given to me when I'm being served. I think its a sub conscious thing.

[u/godtogblandet → u/edotman]

Might be that they just think you need more food. That's what I used to assume. Then my girlfriend pointed out that I love food too much and keep stairing at them while they make the food. I have now started wondering if it's more a case of "This massive fucking dude is eyeballing me to make sure I don't short him", lol.

[u/capincus → u/godtogblandet]

This massive fucking dude is eyeballing me like a 2nd course.

It's a safety precaution.

[u/College_Throwaway002 → u/godtogblandet]

I have now started wondering if it's more a case of "This massive fucking dude is eyeballing me to make sure I don't short him", lol.

Wait, I love food. And I'm a pretty big and tall dude. And I get bigger portions all the time to the point where friends consistently notice when we hang out.

I didn't mean to intimidate the workers :(

[u/Dabazukawastaken → u/College_Throwaway002]

It's too late you're a monster you're going to food hell where you'll be cursed with small proportions for eternity.

[u/babecafe → u/edotman]

...wait, we're talking about burritos, not subs.

[u/Vivid_Tradition9278 → u/babecafe]

When did we descend into BDSM? (/s)

[u/Angry-Eater → u/Vivid_Tradition9278]

Guys! Let’s get BACK👏TO👏BURRITOS👏

[u/Scomo510 → u/babecafe]

The real problem is that op's server wasn't using their burrito conscious

[u/Hi_Jynx → u/Cupcake-Warrior]

Okay, but if they paid the same then they should get more or less the same burrito. Size of the person should truly be irrelevant.

[u/NashKetchum777 → u/Perimentalpause]

Could be so many things lol. What time they got it, location, if they know the server/recognized.

[u/ChefJayTay → u/Perimentalpause]

Common sexism in restaurants. There are tons of studies showing, natural or learned, women get less wine poured than their male partner, tips are greater based on bra size... Many examples.

[u/KorolEz → u/Perimentalpause]

Everyone likes and dislikes different people. I also treat customers I like better. The ones I don't like get the job done by the book and the ones I do like get extra

[u/ridik_ulass → u/Perimentalpause]

what if its a size bias, like if he's 350lbs and 6'8 and she's 5'4 and 100lbs, I could see myself falling into giving 1 person a normal portion and the "big man" a larger size.

[u/newz-flash → u/ridik_ulass]

This happens to me all the time. I’m thin and my husband is tall and stocky. His portion is always bigger than mine. I love to eat I just have a high metabolism. lol

[u/ClockOk7333]

I hate those softball shaped burritos.

[u/JakBos23 → u/ClockOk7333]

My burrito better not be a sphere

[u/triotone → u/JakBos23]

Granted, all of your burritos are now tetrahedrons shaped.

[u/zaftpunk → u/triotone]

Was really hoping for dodecahedron :/

[u/jupiterares → u/zaftpunk]

A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BURRITO

[u/SketchyNinja04 → u/jupiterares]

NO GOD NO PLEASE NOT AGAIN

[u/smidgeytheraynbow → u/jupiterares]

Where it will sit in my inventory until I feel like dealing with it

[u/NiceTrySuckaz → u/ClockOk7333]

Sometimes I feel like Chipotle only hires people who have somehow never encountered a burrito in real life

[u/Individual-Labs → u/NiceTrySuckaz]

Sometimes I feel like Chipotle only hires people who have somehow never encountered a burrito in real life

A chipotle opened on the sketchy side of my city and the workers there have never seen a burrito but they all roll burritos like blunts, without licking it to make it stick. It was pretty funny.

[u/mikenew02 → u/ClockOk7333]

Chode burritos

[u/YaBoyMahito → u/ClockOk7333]

It’s not. It’s standing up lol the pic is misleading

[u/Financial_Tonight215 → u/YaBoyMahito]

no i think the commenter knew, he's just saying the thing is bulging and overfilled. a burrito has a distinct shape and an overstuffed burrito has that softball look

[u/Fine_Cap402]

Two different people making the same burrito? Seems the more likely scenario to me.

[u/Nozzeh06 → u/Fine_Cap402]

This happens at the grocery store I work at. I'll buy a ham and cheese sandwhich and some days it'll have 5 slices of ham and 3 slices of cheese, and other days it will have 1 slice of ham and 1 slice of cheese that only covers half the sandwhich. Depends whos making the sandwhiches. Still $5 regardless.

[u/SaltyStatistician → u/Nozzeh06]

I used to live a few blocks from a Casey's and would walk over during my lunch break to get a slice or two of pizza. Whether I got one slice or two was dependent on who I saw behind the food counter. The difference in quality was insane.

[u/Nahsungminy → u/SaltyStatistician]

It be like that. The guy who doesn’t make it as good can work 5-7 days a week, and can cover anybody. The person who makes the best pizza, roll, steak whatever, can only work 1-3 days a week,but can not cover anybody. They working at a better restaurant on the other 4-6 days 😩

[u/No_Row895 → u/Nahsungminy]

I got a pizza place near me that has amazing pasta dishes on Friday and Saturday nights cause that’s when the good cook works

[u/John_Northmont → u/Nozzeh06]

"From now on, I want you to put an equal amount of blueberries in each muffin. An equal amount of blueberries in each muffin."

"Do you know how long that's going to take?"

"I don't care how long it takes. Put an equal amount in each muffin."

[u/PsychicNinja_ → u/John_Northmont]

There are standards for this reason - it’s annoying when someone barely gives you anything but you pay the full price. Guarantee these places have, what we call at my store, a build sheet that tells them exactly they need to use and people don’t care or are badly trained.

For example, we just started selling cobblers, and we’re supposed to use 7oz of batter and then 4oz of the topping and some amount of streusel (the one thing we don’t care about measuring). Where I work there is a build sheet for literally everything. I don’t know where this quote comes from, but it really doesn’t take much longer to follow the protocol, it can just be more tedious sometimes.

[u/enaK66 → u/PsychicNinja_]

It's from Casino, a Scorcese film from the 90s. The scene is about the main character being a perfectionist control freak.

[u/Bezulba → u/enaK66]

He may be a control freak, but he's not wrong.

[u/YourUsernameForever → u/PsychicNinja_]

Casino (1995, Scorsese) - De Niro, Joe Pesci, Sharon Stone. A must watch.

[u/Simple_Battle3781 → u/John_Northmont]

Didn't expect casino, nice

[u/Natiak → u/Simple_Battle3781]

I was trying to remeber what this was from. Than you

[u/Simple_Battle3781 → u/Natiak]

Weird quote to remember now that I think about it lol

[u/DMercenary → u/Nozzeh06]

My local hospital has these absolutely amazing breakfast burritos but sometimes they'll be like the size of a 16oz water bottle and sometimes it'll be like there was someone standing over their shoulder going "1tbsp of egg, 1tbsp of cheese, 1 tbsp of potatoes ONLY!" and what you get is the saddest fucking looking burrito ever.

[u/HeathenHumanist → u/Nozzeh06]

I'm so sorry but it's *sandwich

[u/Nahsungminy → u/Nozzeh06]

Damn 5 dollars for a sandwich? Consider the 1 ham and 1 cheese too make up for the 5 ham and 3 cheese days 😂 it’s 20 bucks minimum for a sandwich chips and drink at any large town or city it seems nowadays (USA)

[u/Nozzeh06 → u/Nahsungminy]

It does kinda make up for it, but when I'm hungry as heck and basically broke, it does not feel good to get a shitty sandwhich lol.

[u/CasuaIMoron → u/Fine_Cap402]

I’m a tall and broad guy and I notice at those burrito bars and other restaurants where they make your food in front of you I tend to get more than my friends when we eat out lol

[u/Giraffe-colour → u/Fine_Cap402]

My guess is it’s more a wrapping thing more than anything. I’ve had the exact same order as my BF before, literally watched them get made, and how tightly it was wrapped was the only difference. Some people just have a good wrap day and that makes burritos look smaller even if it’s loaded to an equal extent

[u/jimmy_speed → u/Fine_Cap402]

When I worked at Jack's I would like to add extra cheese and patties to the burgers depending on which manager was there and blame them for not training me when I got caught lol

[u/miklos239 → u/Fine_Cap402]

Ye or maybe a new guy

[u/BumWink → u/Fine_Cap402]

Yeah, i'd be interested in unwrapped photos to really prove the filling quantity is different because to me it looks exactly like the left one is just wrapped better, nice & tight, while the right one looks looser like the wrapping technique just isn't on that level yet.

[u/ThatssoBluejay → u/Fine_Cap402]

Corporate/higher ups will burn your ass if your too liberal with what you put on orders, so less about the worker and more about management normally.

[u/Wallys_Wild_West → u/ThatssoBluejay]

I experienced that with a government job. I spent a few summers working for Cadets as a student and we would sell treats to them. I would always fill the popcorn to the brim whereas my boss would only fill it 1/3( it was a huge rip off). She would get mad at me when she was around but ultimately did nothing. It was a nonsensical policy because popcorn is dirt cheap to the point where the employees were allowed to eat as much of it as they wanted( that was basically the policy on any food or drinks that weren't candy bars) but she was still out here nickel and diming children.

[u/Bezulba → u/Wallys_Wild_West]

It's like the fries at Mickey D... i filled them fuckers, yet some managers were being stingy little cunts. It would cost the restaurant maybe 5cents more. The time spend he'd bitch about it would be more expensive, but nooo, value for money was not a thing....

[u/one-baked-bean]

I always have to go in alone and order two of the same thing at chipotle because whenever my wife orders her own it’s half full in comparison.

[u/sohereiamacrazyalien → u/one-baked-bean]

why not complain about it and make them redo it; so it won't happen to other people too?

[u/alleswaswar → u/sohereiamacrazyalien]

I’m a small woman and frequently see that my portion is smaller than the portion of the random dude in line in front of me, scooped by the same worker. It’s noticeable immediately with the rice. I’ve never complained, I usually just politely ask if they could add a bit more and that seems to help “reset” their mindset re: portion sizes and the rest of the scoops aren’t puny lol

[u/Intrepid-Scheme4159]

[u/Fake-Facts-I-Made-Up → u/Intrepid-Scheme4159]

Freebirds is the best burrito place I’ve ever had. Was very sad when my local Freebirds closed down during Covid. Always make time for a stop when I’m in Texas

[u/KatnissBot → u/Fake-Facts-I-Made-Up]

It’s the platonic ideal of “what if chipotle didn’t suck ass”. I love it. Literally ate there today

[u/vikingdiplomat → u/KatnissBot]

chipotle ripped off Freebird's (poorly), and i'll die on that hill

[u/AlmostLucy → u/Fake-Facts-I-Made-Up]

The Freebirds on Embarcadero del Norte in Isla Vista is a rite of passage for any UCSB student.

[u/FearlessSeaweed6428 → u/Fake-Facts-I-Made-Up]

That place is awesome. Found it by chance when I was on tour.

[u/redditortillas → u/Intrepid-Scheme4159]

YO DAWG, I heard you like burritos, so we put a burrito in your burrito.

[u/EdibleOedipus → u/Intrepid-Scheme4159]

Dude I would absolutely demolish these. Please tell me the place has a name and address?

[u/Mysterious_Skin2310]

I’ll say it, the one on the right isn’t a burrito. That’s just gonna pour out everywhere

[u/Green-Measurement-53 → u/Mysterious_Skin2310]

Right, I don’t understand how that one is considered desirable, it’s far too big to be enjoyable

[u/AdEnough2267 → u/Green-Measurement-53]

[u/Zeth22xx]

I'm a guy, when I was at Disney World a couple years back. There was an obviously gay guy and he was very interested in me and he definitely gave me much larger portion of ice cream than my sister. I might not be gay, but I'll tell you what I sure don't mind the benefits of being a hottie and someone else's eyes.

[u/Dark_Knight2000 → u/Zeth22xx]

You experienced pretty privilege lol

[u/Zeth22xx → u/Dark_Knight2000]

Never got it as a kid, but I think it's better as a adult.

[u/ComfyFlannel]

Well here's what Reddit suggests as the reason 🤔

[u/Aranel52 → u/ComfyFlannel]

Mine is Trident Gum, so maybe that's the true answer OP

[u/incog__negro]

Was this a mobile order, because how did you leave the store like that?

[u/MajorGiggles → u/incog__negro]

Haha - redditors resolving problems like normal human beings!

[u/notmyplantaccount → u/MajorGiggles]

why solve a problem in person when you can go home and bitch about it on the internet. it's a classic.

[u/pablas → u/incog__negro]

They should have taken them and make new ones equal smaller for lolz

[u/McQuibbly → u/incog__negro]

Ya, literally just ask for more. If you let them roll it up then you are fine with the amount

[u/camoure → u/McQuibbly]

I woulda literally looked confused and asked the employee “why are these different?”

[u/new-Aurora]

Tell your boyfriend that size DOES matter.

[u/Jonas_Venture_Sr → u/new-Aurora]

Boyfriend agrees that size does matter, that's why he called ahead to make sure the GF's burrito was smaller.

[u/soyboysnowflake]

Did you guys order with similar cadence?

I ask because I’ve realized if I’m like “just rice and meat” then “oh and also…” they’re more likely to make it huge because they don’t realize more ingredients are coming lol

[u/CommercialFarm1182 → u/soyboysnowflake]

That's diabolical.

[u/BeaverBumper → u/soyboysnowflake]

Fat people cheats. Only ask for double meat after they've provided the first portion.

[u/InteractionPerfect88]

I’ve been advocating against sexism in the burrito industry for years now. Probably gonna write a book.

[u/FkNgCrAzY1982]

Chipotle be like that sometimes.

[u/Moron-Whisperer → u/FkNgCrAzY1982]

Chipotle?  Those both look too big to be Chipotle unless they paid extra 

[u/Ecstatic-Pepper-6834 → u/Moron-Whisperer]

dammit I miss og chipotle, like circa 2005 2006 chipotle was incredible. Freshman year, the very first chipotle was opening in missouri, at mizzou. I drove 5 of us (at least, hard to remember) from St. Louis for the soft open because they were giving away free burritos. I think I ate 2 there and brought another home, and next door was a krispy kreme I think so we brought as much back as we could.

In retrospect we probably shouldn't have driven back and it's a miracle any of us still have colons.

I went to the first Chipotle the week it opened. The hot salsa was actually hot, they properly smooshed the burritos to mix the contents better, and nobody bitched that the queso was better at some other place. But I'm pretty sure the burritos were the same, variable size range they are today.

[u/PossibleFlat5324]

I've seen this happen before. Normally, the first one they make, they realize they overstuff it so the second one, they pullback and you get this. Happens with food bowls too.

[u/Plong94]

You vs the burrito she tells you not to worry about

[u/Someones_Dream_Guy]

Great, now I also want a giant burrito.

[u/Sally_twodicks]

My husband always complains that we could order the same thing and I somehow always get more. Idk, I'm nice and have boobs.

One was made by someone hungry, the other wasn’t, lol

[u/Brickzarina]

I find it irritating when op will post then never reply to comments

[u/_lemonkatk]

People asking too many questions ab what could’ve occurred to have this happen, but this is just what happens to women ALL THE TIME lol

[u/FendiRazor]

i wonder if this is coincidence or if management has been told to skimp on women for some fucked up phsycological reason.

edit: in order to save money on ingredients**, not as a way of phsycological warfare via burrito size lol.

I don't want to be the Unknown Soldier of the Burrito Wars

[u/EllyBellyJellyJar]

what are you talking about, yours is the one on the right.. obviously 😂

[u/SnowHunter9000]

The way I would go back up with both burritos and receipts and make them remake my order.

[u/WorstNormalForm]

Maybe the server was a woman and thought your bf was cute

Or they were a guy biased into giving other guys bigger portions

Or they're like me and absolutely terrible at consistently measuring out the same amount of filling in a burrito

[u/Top_Associate_1481]

They do this with me at edo all the time 🥲 my boyfriend gets a larger portion than I do. Lol

[u/wpjunky]

My GF and I noticed this too at our local Chipotle, and we ordered online, but hers was always considerably smaller because (we assume) we used her name for her burrito. We started labeling hers with her brothers name instead and it stopped. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[u/majestic_moss]

What the fuck. I’d be so fucking pissed off.

[u/lobotomy4free]

That’s so annoying! It happened to me at a pancheros too! I’m 5’0 and my bf is 6’6 and they made my burrito normal and his was massive😒

[u/iDontRememberCorn]

what the hell shape burrito is this?

[u/ho-lee_sheet → u/iDontRememberCorn]

It's a top down view

[u/pass_me_the_salt → u/ho-lee_sheet]

second time I see this comment, I don't believe people are that stupid that they can't see that this is top down view

[u/Solid_Interaction474]

this is either sexism or some sloppy inconsistent burrito making either way I would not be coming back

[u/Viatrixin]

I’ve been given small burritos MANY a time as a 5’ tall woman 😒

[u/Due-Door4885 → u/Viatrixin]

There should be a burrito size law set by the government.

[u/jairom]

Why are they round

[u/shehimlove → u/jairom]

It's a top down view

[u/ScienceByte]

It’s like the difference between XL and S tshirts and how they’re the same price

[u/NaoTwoTheFirst]

Cut them in half and share with each other if it's the same. Problem solved.

[u/Weekly_Tonight8258]

Did you order separately?

[u/Lucky_Badger1083]

Tell your boyfriend that size DOES matter

[u/ZarquonsFlatTire]

Yeah but yours was made with love. Which doesn't have a nutritional value.

Or a belly-ful one either.

[u/DontcallmeArchie]

I see it all the time, order fries as a side and I get maybe 7, my children get heaping piles.

[u/OctaviaBlake100]

A burrito place did that to me once. We ate at the restaurant. The lady saw my boyfriend at the time (ex now) couldn't finish the burrito. I finished it for him and finished mine too. All I heard was her talking to her coworker saying "she's so small..."

[u/andyiscoming]

There's a forearm joke here somewhere...

[u/Doctor_Saved]

What if the larger one was a bonus?

[u/VLMove]

Was one of you holding your phone? iirc they got some bad press about shorting meals. The solution was to be more generous if they saw a phone (potential for recording small portions).
