A TikTok user has revealed how she orders a Chipotle burrito for about $2.
Hannah Hutson, 21, of California, who goes by the TikTok username @hannahhuts, posted a video on the platform explaining how she gets such a good deal.
"Order a pinto bean (extra beans) and cheese burrito at Chipotle," Hutson wrote in the video. "They charge it as 2 sides it’s literally $1.94 and it slaps."
"I order it even when I have $$$," she added.

Hutson told Fox News Digital that she’s been ordering the cheese and bean burrito for over six years, starting when she was a teen living in Colorado.
"I always used to order it as a kid because I just liked bean and cheese burritos," Hutson told Fox News Digital in a message.
As she got older, Hutson said her Chipotle order occasionally became a necessity.
"These burritos have saved me a couple times when I really didn’t have money for food," Hutson said. "They’re filling with good protein, so I want to help out anyone in a similar position."

Hutson said that out of "hundreds" of times of ordering a cheese and bean burrito, she said she’s only gotten pushback once when a Chipotle employee and their manager apparently tried to charge it as a "three-pointer," which is a burrito with only three ingredients.
However, in the end, Hutson said she was able to get the burrito charged as two sides.

Though Hutson said her bean and cheese burrito is charged as two sides every time she orders it in-person, Chipotle does not allow customers to order burritos or bowls with only two ingredients on the website or app. Hutson’s hack is only available to order in person.
