It might not involve any free burritos for you and me (sad face), but restaurant chain Chipotle has launched a new campaign designed to turn your junk e-mail into healthier school lunches for kids.
The program –- called “No Junk” –- encourages people to forward their spam to nojunk@chipotlejunk.com. For every 100,000 messages received at that address, Chipotle plans to donate $10,000 to The Lunch Box, a non-profit organization that provides resources to schools to help them make their food programs healthier.

I love that spam is finally useful in some way! I sent one tonight to see what happens. :) Thanks for the headsup Jewel.

Suddenly spam seems less annoying. :) Thank you Jewel. I'll send my junk mail on as well.

Duly forwarded as suggested. :) I'm glad for once to see it in my inbox.

I'll start sending them mine as well. I hope Chipotle takes this a step further and reports all the spam to the FTC as well. That would do us all a big favor.

Hear, hear! I always report mine to them. Even if no-one else bothers, I know I'm doing something. I'll send it to Chipotle too.
