Whaddya mean? Everybody loves Chipotle! /s

  While I do like Chipotle, a lot of homogenization is simply the result of efficiency. Cookie cutter succeeds because cookie cutter is what people want. The pace of homogenization might have increased because technology greatly enables it. If you want a product just type “best whatever’s” into Reddit or wire cutter or consumer reports and you can have thousands of people’s experiences distilled down within minutes. Same thing for food and travel. Do I want to take chances on various stores owned by various owners sourcing goods from various places? Or do I want to get my sister a gift from Target, where if she does not like it, she can go home and return at the Target near her home.

    Trillions of flies eating feces doesn’t make it haute cuisine.
