What Chipotle says is in it
Chipotle’s ingredient statement for Romaine Lettuce names three ingredients: Baby Kale, Baby Spinach and Romaine Lettuce. On romaine lettuce the ingredients page says: “Romaine lettuce is so simple and unassuming that you might not notice it - until you forget to ask for it on your burrito. We receive whole heads of lettuce fresh from the fields, then wash and cut them by hand every morning into two different sizes (salad size and taco size, to those in the biz) thereby ensuring that the lettuce is as fresh, crisp and delicious as possible.” On baby kale the ingredients page says: “Baby Kale is so simple and unassuming that you might not notice it - until you forget to ask for it on your burrito. We receive whole heaps fresh from the fields, then wash and cut them by hand every morning into two different sizes (salad size and taco size, to those in the biz) thereby ensuring that the lettuce is as fresh, crisp and delicious as possible.”
On 25 September 2026 Romaine Lettuce was listed at all 368 restaurants read, in 48 states and DC. That makes it a core item, on every open menu read.
The record against a day
Per 1 oz, Romaine Lettuce carries 5 calories, 0 g of protein, 0 mg of sodium and 1 g of carbohydrate on its calculator record. That is under one percent of a 2,000 calorie day and under one percent of the 2,300 mg sodium daily value, with 1 g of fiber (4 percent of the daily value). Cholesterol is not in the calculator; the printed sheet’s row for Romaine Lettuce (tacos) gives 0 mg for the same portion.
The brand publishes two other portions for it: family meal portion, 8 oz at 40 calories (calories only); supergreens salad mix, the salad base, 3 oz at 15 calories.
What it costs
Romaine Lettuce carries no price of its own on any of the 368 menus read: it is part of the entree, added on the line at no charge. The priced parts of an order are the protein’s second portion, guacamole, queso blanco and the cilantro lime sauce; everything else on the line is included.
What the chart says
The chart’s row for Romaine Lettuce says it contains none of the four chart allergens; it is marked vegetarian, vegan, keto and paleo. The chart’s standing cautions apply to every row: “Individual foods may come into contact with one another during preparation, which is not reflected on this chart.”
Where it turns up on the menu
The reference builds on 36 entree pages name Romaine Lettuce, from the Beef Barbacoa Burrito to the Steak Kid’s Build Your Own. It is a part of eight configured meals: Family Meal - Chicken, Family Meal - Sofritas, Family Meal - Steak, Double High Protein Bowl, High Protein-High Fiber Bowl and High Protein Taco. On the build it sits at the toppings station (as many as you like, at no charge) on 21 entree pages, so pressing it there adds this record to the bars.
