Twitter says the iPhone is just like a Chipotle burrito
Are Chipotle and Apple in the same league?

Rabid Apple geeks are being pitted against die-hard Chipotle diners on Twitter. The debate started when Slate's Matt Yglesias compared the iPhone to a Chipotle burrito, claiming that Chipotle founder Steve Ells and Steve Jobs both revolutionized the customer experience by offering slightly better quality at a premium.

Gizmodo's Mat Honan took high-tech umbrage in his rebuttal, and now the rest of Twitter has jumped into the fray. iPhone fanatics aren't usually known for making concessions when it comes to the sacred cow of consumer electronics, but Honan just might, tweeting, \"Willing to compromise. I will eat a Chipotle burrito if @mattyglesias will eat an iPhone.\"

Are Chipotle and Apple in the same league?
