Percentages are the share of the FDA Daily Value for adults and children 4 and over, worked out from Chipotle’s published amounts (how % Daily Value works). A dash means Chipotle does not publish that value for this size. Not published for this item: cholesterol and added sugars.
Using the FDA’s rule of thumb that 5% of the Daily Value or less per serving is low and 20% or more is high, the Topping size is high in saturated fat (23%) and is low in dietary fiber, protein and carbohydrate. Add it up with other items in the Chipotle nutrition calculator.
Not in the nutrition PDF; values from the online nutrition calculator, which does not publish cholesterol.
Allergens
According to Chipotle, the Cilantro Lime Sauce contains milk.
| Milk | Contains |
|---|---|
| Wheat | Not listed |
| Soy | Not listed |
| Gluten | Not listed |
Chipotle's allergen chart flags milk (dairy), wheat and gluten (combined, since every gluten-containing item also contains wheat), soy and sulphites. Sulphites are flagged only because some items contain vinegar, where they occur naturally below the level that must be labeled. The chart does not reflect contact between foods during preparation. Chipotle says it does not use eggs, mustard, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, shellfish or fish as ingredients but cannot guarantee their complete absence in its restaurants, and limited-time or test items may contain other allergens. Flour tortillas contain gluten; guests sensitive to gluten can ask staff to change gloves, and corn items (chips, crispy corn tortillas, corn salsa) may carry traces of gluten from the field. Tell staff about any food allergy before ordering.
Labeled by Chipotle as: Vegetarian, Keto (as labeled by the chain).
