About half of the ingredients used by the Denver-based Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurant chain contain genetically modified organisms, the company announced recently.
The brand, which often promotes its commitment to naturally raised meats and local produce in a bid to distance itself from chains like Taco Bell and McDonald’s, recently became the first fast-food chain to label the ingredients it uses that contain GMOs. The total, according to the chain’s website: 12 of 24 common ingredients contain the controversial foods.
