As a food editor, it’s literally my job to tell people what tasty newness is at all their favorite chain restaurants. That said, we’re creatures of habit—myself included—and I usually stick to my go-to orders. For instance, at Chipotle, I order half steak, half carnitas without thinking. However, my last bowl from the chain starred a resurrected protein that hits stores on September 2: carne asada. Is it worth mixing up my usual order? I had to find out.
