Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, remember the article about the 400 calorie cookies at Starbucks? I just went to Chipotle. Come to find out, the tortilla alone is 290 calories. I wavered up until the actual moment of ordering, and then I couldn't do it. Got the burrito bowl. Still got the cheese, guac, etc., but I figure the wrapper is the least yummy part anyway.

I'm never eating at McDonald's again, am I?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

As someone looking at three more weeks without wheat that's a damned tasty wrapper and I want it.

Yeah, I started doing that after finding something similar...just not worth it!

It's right there on the fucking board with the prices. Fucking Bloomberg. I don't want to be that healthy!! Give me a cigarette and some fried food and let me be!

McDonald's has a nutrition calculator that tells you cals, etc. for each ingredient in the sandwich. For example, the bun is 170 calories of the 520 calories in a Quarter Pounder w. Cheese.

Goddamn, I love me a carnitas burrito. I know they are north of 1000 calories but, damn, I don't care. SO GOOD.

Yeah, but I'm not looking at that calculator while I'm ordering -- just the grand total.

If it's any consolation (?), I think they only went up to 918 or something (each item had a range).

Man, now I am craving McDonald's. My mind is super suggestible.

I just ate a giant burrito, and man, those calories were WORTH IT.
