Chipotle, Qdoba, or Moe's?

The question that has been daunting us for too long.

Chipotle, Qdoba, or Moe's?

Beans, meat, and rice. The core of a burrito, and the core of the Tex-Mex food industry in the United States. The first beauty of this popular dish is its versatility, for one can add any topping or double of a topping if that's what they desire. The second attraction is that someone else is making it for you, so all you have to do is nod, shake, point, or grunt to get a tasty culmination of your favorite add-ons.

So where can a person get their quick burrito fix? Depending where you are in the U.S., one can acquire a speedy, delicious burrito at three of these popular quick-service restaurant chains: Chipotle, Qdoba, or Moe's.

I've been in the place where I have to pick between one of the two above, and I feel like it's one of the harder decisions I've ever had to make. There's so many similarities and differences between these restaurants, all of the information is too much to think about when I'm just trying to suppress my strong burrito craving.

Being the kind human that I am... I decided to make it easier for the burrito-lovers out there and highlight the strengths of each of the restaurants above. After discussion with meat lovers, queso bingers, guacamole junkies, and the good ol' vegetarians, I've come up with the following conclusions...


1. Qdoba has free guacamole and queso. Yes, free.

2. Chipotle has organic GMO free ingredients, and they were the first national restaurant chain to recently make that switch.

3. Moe's has tofu. That's pretty sweet for those who choose not to eat meat.

4. Chipotle has margaritas, bottled beer, and wine. Qdoba and Moe's have bottled beer.

5. Moe's gives you free chips and salsa with every order.


I still have no idea where I prefer to chow down, but I think for the most part it just depends what you're in the mood for. I hope this little tid bit of information has made picking a burrito spot a little easier and a little more clear. Happy eating!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
