Thread: Moe's Southwest Grill

Heather Graham (no, not the actress, but the Moe's PR representative) replies:

Thank you for your interest in Moe's Southwest Grill. We are in the
process of setting the nutritional values for our menu, therefore at
this time we are unable to provide complete nutritional information. As
you may know, we offer a wide range of options that can guide you
towards a healthy eating lifestyle. With the build as you go model, you
have the choice of excluding ingredients that you feel aren't a good
addition to your diet. Our food is prepared fresh daily and we offer
diet friendly options including vegetarian salads and a Buck-Naked
low-carb Burrito.

Thank you

A few minutes later, another email, from the Raving Fans Coordinator:

Thanks so much for the kind words and support. It means the world to us!!! We are in the process of having a nutritional analysis performed. Once we get the results we will make them available. I can tell you that the beans have no meat or dairy in them and are made with vegetable stock. Hope that helps.

Sincerely,

Raving Fans Coordinator

That still doesn't tell me if there is sugar in their black beans.

Aaaaanyway.

In my experience with beans is that all of them have equal nutritional values. What do they add to their beans?

Well, I know cubans and puerto ricans often add SUGAR to the black beans. That's why I need to know these things, because I don't put sugar in my food.

I just got another reply from them though. (yeah I'm persistent like that). The Raving Fans Coordinator said there is no sugar in their beans. I'm happy now.

Welcome to Moe's!

Do they do that at your's? They shout that when you walk in Moe's here.

Yep! The first few times, it was funny. Now. um... not so funny. haha!

They scream with everything? That is such a bad marketing idea.

Imagine what they'd do to "non-tippers"

ChipotleLovers.com does have nutritional information about Chipotle Mexican grill. You need to register and then create the burrito you normally get in the 'Potle Menu' section

It allows you to specify if you get a lot or a little of certain items, so its very accurate. At the end when you 'wrap it up' youll get a nutrition fact summary (like the side of the cereal box)

Hope this helps!

Uh, yeah I know that. :-) I love that site.

I was referring to Moe's Southwest Grill and how I hope that if they don't put the info on their site, someone will take the initiative that was taken for the chipotle info and make their own site.

Hey all. So you wish that someone would take the initiative and make their own site? I just wanted to let you know that I am that person.

You can find nutritional information for Moe's Southwest Grill, Chipotle, and more than 300 other restaurants. I hope you'll stop by and check it out!

well it is spam, but i certainly appreciate this particular piece of spam.

(if you're referring to dietfacts posting this link in shameless self promotion)

if you mean about the calories in moe's foods... well... yeah. not such great news for some of us i guess.

No I expect to get fat stuff whenever I don't prepare food myself...

I was refering to the spam...
(Which is usable info)

Yep, helpful SPAM it is.

I am shocked that my reply is considered SPAM and shameless self-promotion. How can I be spamming when I wrote my message for one (and only one) forum post? Sheesh! Someone asks a question, I try to be helpful, and this is the thanks I get. With friends like this...

Sorry if my trying to help was construed the wrong way. I was just trying to help.

I want to visit this Moe's:

Great. That site has every friggin restaurant BUT Moe's. Thanks for nothing lady.

Kelly, I apologize for the misunderstanding (and this happened last year). I have actually emailed with you outside of this website since then, asking about other things pertaining to your website, which many of us have discovered is indeed an awesome resource, and I should have remembered to come back in here and clear things up.

It's just that normally when you see a post like yours on IM, it's often someone trying to sell something or promote themselves. They come in, post once, leaving a link behind, and then disappear.

You've been nothing but helpful all along and I appreciate that you brought this to our attention. I can't speak for everyone else, but at least from me and a few others on here who I know do visit your website for reference, please accept our apology.
