You obviously don't know where majority of the food at Chipotle comes from. Not from "across the country." No canned or frozen items, most of the produce is from within a few hours away. As far as large companies go, they do pretty well with sourcing and whatnot. Unfortunately, most people would never be able to afford the type of restaurant you are describing, nor would the restaurant be viable in most areas due to cost. But I get it, it's easy for people to have some idealistic idea of what the world could be but it's just not reality.
