Chipotle is truly a food chain that appeals to all audiences.

But a recent TikTok video caught an unwelcome guest feasting on one customer's meal.


A Chipotle customer named Cece—known by her 572,200 TikTok followers as @butterrgirll—posted the TikTok on Monday which showed a green insect roaming around in her burrito bowl.

You can see the video here:

@Chipotle what is it??? I need answers #fypシ #fyp #viralvideo #viral #trending #trend #bugs #fypシ゚viral #fy #chipotle #HangUpOnIt

Thankfully for her, she noticed the bug early on in her meal.

The bug's green hue helped it to blend right in with the lettuce.

The video, which has almost 6 million views, 792,600 likes, and nearly 25,000 comments, features @butterrgirll capturing video evidence of the insect.

It begins rather low key as the bug isn't readily apparent at the start if the video. But, once Cece begins prodding the lettuce with a fork, viewers can see the tiny green bug moving around.

In the background, viewers can hear Cece's shock, confusion and disgust as she watched the bug roam around her food.

Cece can be heard, out of frame, saying:

"I was just eating my Chipotle, right?"
"And I seen something moving in my food."
"So I had to empty it on the plate to make sure I wasn't tripping."

Cece goes on to exclaim:

"What the hell is that?"
"Chipotle, I need answers."
"I need answers."
"I need answers."

Well, thanks to Science Direct, Cece finally got some answers.

According to Science Direct, the pest could have been a type of aphid that feeds on lettuce and other vegetable crops. It's supposedly rather commonplace when certain vegetables are packaged for distribution, but the newfound information isn't necessarily easy to swallow.

Several people on TikTok asked Cece what the outcome of the situation was and the people were given answers. Cece posted a follow-up video that details how Cece went back to the Chipotle location to bring the incident to the establishment's attention.

The follow-up TikTok, which has over 1 million views, informs followers Cece did, in fact, go back to the restaurant and ask to speak to a manager. At the time Cece went to Chipotle, the manager was unavailable to speak with her but she was able to speak to a supervisor about what she had found in her bowl.

In the course of her discussion with the supervisor, Cece recounts she said:

"I just ordered food from y'all and y'all got bugs in your food, do you wanna see it?"

According to Insider, Cece confirmed the supervisor was apologetic for her less than palatable experience with the food chain and issued a full refund on the meal.

In the second video, Cece shows viewers a screenshot of a pending refund in the amount of $29.50 from Chipotle in her bank account's online transaction history.

Cece went on to tell Insider she has taken the matter further and reached out to corporate.

Cece told Insider:

"They told me they will reach out to the store and make sure it wouldn't happen again."

The next time you're thinking of ordering a salad or bowl, maybe rethink adding lettuce to your meal.

Jimmy Kimmel And Stephen Colbert Unload On Trump In Rare Crossover Event As Guests On Each Other's Shows

Late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert were each other's guests in a special crossover event on Tuesday and took the opportunity to call out "son of a b*tch" President Donald Trump, who has used his influence in attempts to silence them for criticizing him and his MAGA movement on the air.

Last week, ABC announced it would end its suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live! just a week after Trump pushed to get host Jimmy Kimmel off the air following comments Kimmel made about the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk. ABC had had internal discussions with Disney, which saw a wave of subscriber cancellations in the wake of Kimmel's suspension.

Ted Cruz Clashes With 'Crazy' MTG Over Her Cryptic Post Alluding That 'The Jews' Are Trying To Kill Her

Texas MAGA Republican Senator Rafael "Ted" Cruz raised eyebrows when he attacked Georgia QAnon/MAGA Republican Representative and conspiracy theorist Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG) for being antisemitic.

MTG has promoted some antisemitic conspiracy theories in the past, like Jewish space lasers that control the weather or start wildfires, but this time people are calling Cruz out for reaching in an attempt to discredit the Georgia Republican and protect Trump from what's being concealed in FBI, Department of Justice, and court records relating to the indictment of Jeffrey Epstein on charges of sex trafficking of minors.
