One of the best parts of being a person is getting to eat at Chipotle. One of the other best parts of being a person is getting to use the Internet to order food directly to your house so you don’t have to put pants on. Until now, these two aspects of humanity were completely separate, because Chipotle did not offer delivery service. Until now.

That’s right. Chipotle has teamed with delivery service Postmates to offer delivery in 67 cities, _Nation’s Restaurant News_ [reports](http://nrn.com/latest-headlines/chipotle-begins-offering-delivery-postmates "undefined").

Yes, this is very, very exciting — but there’s a catch. The delivery fee is _really_ pricey.

“I just tried to order an $8 Chipotle burrito from Postmates,” [writes](http://recode.net/2015/04/22/omg-chipotle-is-now-delivering-burritos-thanks-to-postmates/ "undefined") Jason Del Rey, who’s based in New York City, “and was told it would cost $20 with delivery and service fees.”

In other words: one delivery burrito costs about the same as two regular burritos plus chips and guacamole. But still, it’s nice knowing it’s an option for when things get dire and you just can’t bring yourself to put on pants and walk to the nearest Chipotle location.

In conclusion:

### QUIZ: Should You Eat This or That?

![Which is better for you: A 1/2 cup of ice cream or 3 scoops of sorbet?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt0dcd6ba4542df1bf/69869703361760c4d390c8cb/sorbet-icecream2.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: Half cup of ice cream or 3 scoops of sorbet? Getty Images (4)

![Answer: A 1/2 cup of ice cream](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltafd9c3a5ba842273/698696c4361760ee7f90c858/icecream.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: A half cup of ice cream If you eat what you’re craving, you’re more likely to feel satisfied and eat less. And scoop for scoop sorbet contains twice the sugar with none of the filling dairy protein and fat. Getty Images (5); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME

![Which is better for you: Real butter or spray on fake butter?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltfe7c1266c414bdae/6986973c1eebf7219f371676/butter-pam2.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

![Answer: Butter](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt51c5755d7858efa2/698696fdcd804d2321ccb668/butter.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: Butter Serving size for spray butters (even low-calorie ones) are around a 1/3 second spray. What on earth does that mean? You're better off using a small amount of real butter as opposed to guessing how much you're using of the mystery melange of up to 20 ingredients. Getty Images (1); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME

![Which is better for you: A sirloin burger or a turkey burger?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt5d34f2664ce95fd0/6986970f55a859cba4a814fb/sirloin-burger-turkey-burger1.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: A turkey burger or a sirloin burger? Getty Images (2)

![<span style="font-size:medium;"><strong><b>Answer: Sirloin burger</b></strong></span><br>
Restaurant turkey burgers are often made with dark meat and the skin, so they’re not necessarily better for you \(and for the record, they aren't low-fat\). You can get a sirloin burger that’s 95% lean meat and gives you 20 g of protein. Just be careful with the toppings.](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte1b297940ae4e4e0/6986970ce53aba0cb54d318e/sirloin-burger.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: Sirloin burger Restaurant turkey burgers are often made with dark meat and the skin, so they’re not necessarily better for you (and for the record, they aren't low-fat). You can get a sirloin burger that’s 95% lean meat and gives you 20 g of protein. Just be careful with the toppings. Getty Images (1); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME


![Which is better for you: Almonds or pretzels?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt16e1e6d1d8c582c2/6986970e810bbb98b6c921d1/almonds-pretzels.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: Almonds or pretzels? Getty Images (2)

![Answer: Almonds](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt5b21660de6689807/698696f1f983e73c4504e551/almonds-pretzels.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: Almonds Almonds are high in protein, fiber and fat and will keep you feeling fuller longer. Give high-sodium pretzels about an hour and you'll feel hungry again thanks to the high-carb no-fat or protein content. Getty Images (1); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME

![Which is better for you: Eggs or Special K?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf602e8d6c60cb43b/6986970ff983e7cb9304e58b/egg-specialk2.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: Special K or eggs? AP; Getty Images


![Answer: Eggs](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd9b137f0cdb6ba79/69869708361760617290c8d9/egg1.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: Eggs In the morning, you want a meal that will fill you up. Eggs offer protein and fat for satiety, but Special K cereal really only offers carbs and, well, air. If you want carbs to kick off the day, you're better off pairing eggs with a slice of 100% whole grain toast. Getty Images (1); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME

![84505234](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt962c2f51f81ad25b/6986973f35ba6f546dc028b1/salad-dressing.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: Fat free salad dressing or regular salad dressing? Tara Johnson for TIME

![Answer: Regular salad dressing](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8494b1b55550dab6/6986973f13c79f77cc1929c4/regular-salad-dressing.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: Regular salad dressingTo absorb fat soluble vitamins like Vitamins E and K in vegetables you need to consume them with a fat to aid nutrient absorption. Fat-free dressing, meanwhile, is low-calorie but gets its flavor from added sugar and salt. Tara Johnson for TIME (5); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME


![Which is better for you: A low fat cookie or dark chocolate?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6d29bb44a0ecc6cf/6986970d06f2c17e7332f6a0/cookie-chocolate1.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: A low fat cookie or dark chocolate? Getty Images (2)

![Answer: Dark chocolate “People tend to believe fat free is calorie free,” says Keri Gans, a registered dietitian in New York City. “Go for the real thing.” Fat free cookies may be lower in fat, but higher in other ingredients like sugar. Try a nice piece](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc5d7b73e6b87c4fb/6986970dcd684835d9095289/chocolate1.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: Dark chocolate “People believe fat free is calorie free,” says Keri Gans, a registered dietitian in New York City. “Go for the real thing.” Fat free cookies tend to be high in carbs, sugar and fake sugar. Try a nice piece of antioxidant-rich dark chocolate instead. Getty Images (2); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME

![Which is better for you: Low fat Greek yogurt or 100 calorie Yoplait yogurt?](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blted3be39fb51dc5a7/69869744cd684847960952e9/yogurt2.jpg?branch=production&width=3840&quality=75&auto=webp)

Which is better for you: Low fat Greek yogurt or 100 calorie Yoplait yogurt? Tara Johnson for TIME


![Answer: Low fat Greek Yogurt](https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blteece0567a8f49f95/6986974455a8591e71a81555/greek-yogurt2.gif?branch=production&width=1920&quality=75&auto=webp)

Answer: 2% Greek YogurtA little fat is good in the morning to keep you full—plus it has upwards of 17g of protein per container. Fat-free "fruit" yogurt is high in sugar—7 to 10 g per serving—and lower in protein. Tara Johnson for TIME (2); Gif by Mia Tramz for TIME
