If you were hoping to pick up a delicious pork carnitas burrito at Chipotle for dinner tonight, you are out of luck. The company has temporarily stopped serving pork at hundreds of its locations, including all of those in the Philadelphia region.

Chipotle discovered a violation by a pork supplier last week. The violation reportedly relates to Chipotle’s requirements that the pigs are raised in humane conditions. The company has not commented more specifically on the violation.

No one is exactly sure when pork will return to the menu, as the company isn’t making any promises. A worker at one Philadelphia Chipotle location said she heard that they might be serving pork as soon as Thursday, but a worker at another location said he heard it could be as late as next week.
