Each of the 53 late-night locations will give out a special bottle of TABASCO Brand Scorpion Sauce to the first 100 digital orders placed between 10PM and midnight local time.

Chipotle Mexican Grill chief brand officer Chris Brandt said: “Boorito has become a mainstay for Chipotle. This year, our digital offer makes it even easier for fans to fuel their Halloween celebrations with real food.”

Chipotle’s Boorito tradition began in 2000 with a burrito-themed Halloween costume contest.

Guests who dressed up for Halloween were awarded cheap entrées at Chipotle restaurants in succeeding years.

By the millennial generation’s college years, Boorito had become a well-established ritual.

However, the Covid-19 epidemic put an end to that. In 2020, the fast food restaurant held a promotion on TikTok, Twitter and Instagram, followed by a giveaway on the online platform Roblox in 2021.
