We tried the new dessert Chipotle is testing and were deeply confused

Chipotle has seen some rough times lately.

Between menu fatigue, the E. coli outbreak, and struggling with customer service, the chain is still nursing its bruises - sales turned positive in the first quarter of this year for the first time since Q4 2015.

Chipotle's hopes seem to reside in a new dessert addition: buñuelos.

The sugar and cinnamon-dusted fried tortilla bits are available as part of a limited test in New York City, and if they prove popular, a national rollout is possible.

But how are they, and are they worth ordering? We grabbed a bag and tried them to find out.
