"Does it matter whether an heirloom tomato is local and organic if it was harvested with slave labor?" -Eric Schlosser, author, Fast Food Nation

Chipotle still refuses to live up to the full spirit of its "Food with Integrity" mantra by working with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers to help ameliorate the human rights crisis faced by Florida farmworkers on a daily basis. C'mon, Chipotle, if Burger King could do it, why can't you?

I get most of my food from my garden, you can't get more local than that.

I support businesses that make an effort at solving some of our problems. I haven't been to a chipotle but I will give them a try
