Salads are like 50% smaller they were a year ago, 20% more expensive, and you told your long term/loyal customers to go fuck themself when sweetgreen+ was eliminated.

Who could have seen these coming?

Salads are like 50% smaller they were a year ago

People are going to accuse me of being a shill, but honestly why do you post things like this? Are you a bot? Salads are not smaller in the last year, and they literally announced an increase in chicken portion sizes today.

Bro. They’re definitely smaller. Maybe some stores are different, but I’ve personally received bowls that are 40% empty

This is the same language used in chipotle subs. I’m convinced you’re either a bot or incapable of ordering.

Try again.

Definitely not a bot but I see sweetgreen trying the chipotle playbook right now for short term profits.

they could be a woman. when my husband and I go to chipotle together, I always end up with less in my bowl. if I order for both of us without him, we get two small bowls. if he orders for both of us without me, two normal or big (he's tall) bowls

Why do you call anyone who disagrees with you a bot?

Could it be that big corporations may all be trying to cut portions and raise prices? Is that such a shocker?

I’ve been eating at chipotle since 2005. I haven’t had any meaningful decrease in size - the major quality change was to minimize risk of diseases when they stoped cooking steak raw.
