Chipotle uses memes for inspiration in first-ever costume line with Spirit Halloween
Chipotle is embracing the memes, dropping its first ever Halloween costume collection with Spirit Halloween to bring those viral moments to life.
The collection has made a Chipotle napkin, fork, water cup, burrito and to-go bag all wearable. It were inspired by a social media tradition in which users come up with off-the-wall costume ideas and share them online. Most, if not all, of these costume ideas are "packed" in a Spirit Halloween bag to give it an air of authenticity, according to a company news release.
Chipotle hopped on the bandwagon then, creating a mockup of a fork and napkin costume to engage with customers.
Now, the two brands are working together to "reawaken" the memes with the costume collection, which will be available until supplies last. Chipotle's water cup, burrito and to-go cup are the latest additions to the costume lineup.
Chipotle took to X on Monday to tease the "Boorito" collection over the last week, sharing a couple of posts to get customers excited about the meme-inspired costumes.
"Our popular Halloween tradition, Boorito, began with a burrito-themed costume contest and now we're taking it to the next level with the launch of our first-ever costume collection in collaboration with Spirit Halloween," Chipotle spokesperson Chris Brandt said in a statement. "In addition to these bodysuits, we will be treating fans to a scarily great offer next month."
