"Chipotle"

[Psychopath]

I recall that there used to be text on Chipotle's cups specifying that "Chip-Pote-Lay" was the wrong pronunciation and that "Cheap-O-Lay" was the correct wrong.

Do the cups still say that and were they wrong? 'Cause I remembered hearing it said a lot in a South Park episode and getting frustrated to the point of turning it off because I just knew that they were saying it wrong the whole way through. Now I'm listening to a podcast talking about it and I began to wonder if that really was the correct pronunciation.

I looked it up and everybody pronounced it as "Chip-Pote-Lay", but I also remembered that the text on the cup specified that the company was specifying that it was pronounced "Cheap-O-Lay" because they were tired of hearing people publicly mispronounce the word and wanted to correct the misconception on how it was pronounced; based on that, I was led to two conclusions; that nobody bothered to read the cup or they did, got mad and use the pronunciation "Chip-Pote-Lay" as a form of rebellion or everybody else was always right all along and the restaurant were the ones who fucked up.

Discuss.

Get some cheese, hot sauce or green sauce, some steak, and top it with some tabasco that's a fucking heavenly burrito.

Yes, most certainly

Steak Burritos with my super secret mix from Chipotle is the greatest thing in history.

Oh also, if you pronounce it with a with the spanish alphabet (Their letters are pronounced so different.) It's pronounced "Cheap-Oat-Lay"

This is silly. The correct way to say it is "Chip-Pote-Lay," and any other way said is wrong.

[IAmCrystalHeights]

I've never had Chipotle, because it's about 50 minutes away from where I live. But it looks fairly good.

[iamgrimreaper]

Okay let's just say it for the record. I have a few Mexican friends, and they pronounce it as "Chi-Pot-Lay," so if there was any doubt. It should now be settled.

On another note, for those who still haven't been there, it's a great restaurant. American-sized servings (as it's actually American, not Mexican), and at good prices too. The food itself is also pretty good.

Exactly. Two burritos and two drinks cost $20. That is ridiculous, especially since it was absolutely disgusting. On top of that, the person with me got food poisoning.

Taco Bell is where it's at.
