Politicized Fast Food

wing2000 · Apr 20, 2015

One can't even eat a Chipotle Burrito without someone assessing one's politics.....sigh

When newly minted presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made an impromptu stop at a Chipotle Mexican Grill CMG +0.44% in Ohio, she wasnt only grabbing a quick meal. She was also patronizing what happens to be a favorite of the Democratic base.

The Chipotle chains customers score as the most liberal in the country, according to fall 2014 data from Experian Marketing Services. Self-described liberals score 145 in the Experian index, meaning they are 45% more likely than the average American to visit a Chipotle.

I would've guessed Starbucks to be the liberal safe haven...but I guess that doesn't technically count as a fast food restaurant

Okay. And "Jack in the Box" rated fourth. Maybe she'll need a ghost pepper burger at 1 a.m. after she's done getting drunk with her aides. I'll bet she'll meet some real 'liberals' then.

Slow news day at the WSJ I guess.

Chipoltle way better than Taco Bell (but at 2:00am, either would do nicely).

Now if only those "Ghost Pepper" burgers had any real spice, they're a joke for any chilly head.

the good ol' 2am taco bell runs lol...(I mean "runs" as in running to t-bell for food...not the kind "runs" people get an hour after eating it lol)

If cops ever wanted an effective DUI checkpoint location, they should just setup shop on the street at the end of the taco bell drive-thru...I remember seeing the parade of drunks going through there every night when I used to work 3rd at a warehouse across the street from it.

I would choose Chipotle over Taco Bell if they were on the same corner and I am not a liberal.
