Also, the Coalition of Immokalee Workers recently sent out the below  
message about Chipotle.  See the CIW website (www.ciw-online.org) for  
an insightful reflection on Chipotle.
------------------
Have you forgotten about farmworkers, Mr. Ells??

"We decided long ago that we didn't want Chipotle's success to be  
tiedto the exploitation of animals, farmers, or the environment."

So spoke Chipotle founder and CEO Steve Ells on the issue  
ofsustainable agriculture in an August, 2007 press release. What  
aboutfarmworkers? Apparently, those who harvest our country's crops  
don'tmerit a mention in Mr. Ells's vision of a fair and  
sustainableagricultural system.

Go to the CIW website today, at http://www.ciw-online.org , for  
thelatest update from the Campaign for Fair Food, including a  
reflection on this revealing quotation.

Thanks, Coalition of Immokalee Workers
