It was my first visit too. My son goes to them sometimes so they are in the college towns maybe and expanding there? I think they are from Calif or some other state with a high Hispanic population. The day we were there almost all the patrons were Hispanic. Some days they have a line out the door, I've seen them because they are on a busy street along a mall. The Sprint store is next door, and that is how I've seen the traffic too. My son likes them because he says there is less salt in their products. I had a nice Garden Chicken burrito. All freshly prepared.

I am doing the "slow carb" method from the 4hr Body book. Tim Ferriss was on Dr. Oz with his tips on fat burning, and I was intrigued. I've lost about 25lbs now, just doing the beans instead of other things. It is lowering my blood sugar too.
I find the black beans and Edamame very filling and I don't get so hungry cutting back. I am not having much gas either from these types. (unlike with other beans! )

I am on a low fructose diet because I can't absorb it... lots of problems with fruit. But I do have an orange or two a day.

If you search Tim Ferriss on DR. Oz you'll see his videos.
My problem is the opposite of yours.. you want to gain, and I need to lose.
