I just don't understand the chipotle customers. A burrito with like 3 oz of chicken is $10

My SBUX stock this morning .

quote:$10 is parity with McDonald's combos, that's not a bad deal at all if you're looking around. You can of course save money at home but for many people the $3-5 savings simply isn't worth the time & energy

Over 900% growth in 6.5 years. The NVIDIA of fast food. Take a bow Brian

Is this the dude that said if you feel the Chipotle employee isn't giving you enough food, just give them a head nod?

They used to give you enough food for it to be easily two meals. Now you’re lucky if they give enough for one.

The trick is get the bowl.
They'll sell you a tortilla for like fifty cents each up to three. Use to you could get up to three tortillas free however I think people caught on. You can roll three burritos from a bowl.

I don't think that company can be saved by a new CEO. It was built in a structurally deflationary regime and the bulk of their expansion came after China joined the WTO during peak globalization. Now we're in a structurally inflationary regime. Their rents are increasing, coffee is increasing and discretionary income is shrinking.
The easiest thing in the world to make at home is coffee. I think their entire model is broken. Captured locations like airports, sure, they'll do fine but I think the growth model of a profitable location on every urban block in the developed world is dead for reasons far beyond the ability of any single CEO to remedy.

I've never once experienced this. I've never finished my entire bowl and side, but I'm not a fatass

Supposedly, Starbucks has allowed him Nicolli to work remotely and even allow him to use any Starbucks coffe shop with free wifi and all the coffee he wants

They also pivot and sell a lot of food now. They have key locations, drive through for the lazy consumer, are efficient for the impatient consumer, and will sell whatever the frick people are buying. SBUX model is not even close to being broken.

There seems to be a lot of corporate/chain coffee shops sprouting up. 7brew, Dutch bros. It’s gotta hurt them.
I sold off my position last year.
