What the brand says
“Yes. Both the white rice and brown rice at Chipotle are gluten free. The rice is seasoned with lime juice and cilantro, making it a safe and flavorful base for Burrito Bowls, Tacos, or as a side.” The white rice is made fresh each morning: “Every morning, we make our cilantro-lime white rice from scratch in each of our restaurants. We steam it with bay leaves to impart their herbal fragrance, then season it with lime and lemon juices and toss it with cilantro for its fresh, slightly tart flavor. It’s like a classic white T-shirt - familiar, never goes out of style, and goes well with tomatillo-green chili salsa.” Both are included in any entree at no charge, and a family meal carries a 24 oz portion of either.

The side by side table above prints every published figure both items carry; a blank cell means the record does not publish it. An entree’s record is its protein alone, which is why the formats compare as builds.
