Chipotle’s Great Carnitas Crisis of 2015 Is Officially Over

Chipotle dropped a primary pork vendor in January after it was found that the supplier failed to meet the restaurant’s standards. Chipotle requires its suppliers to raise pigs with access to the outdoors or deeply bedded barns. It also bans the use of antibiotics, and with no gestation crates. The supplier violated one or more of these protocols.
