Tracking Chipotle in Bento Bunny

Chipotle's nutrition page lists the standard build — but extra sauce, a swapped bun, or a larger drink can shift the real total by hundreds of calories, and a database entry won't know what you actually ordered. With Bento Bunny's AI photo tracking, you snap one picture of your carnitas as it arrives and the app estimates the portion and customizations in front of you, with the AI running on-device on iOS 26+.
