The Hummus Burger is a [vegetarian patty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bingz-healthy-veggie) that's made with a center of hummus that's been breaded, pre-fried and frozen. While there are many different kinds of burgers made with a base of vegetables and grains, this type of patty opens up a ton of new possibilities for what kinds of sauces and spreads could be infused into a hamburger patty for texture and flavor. As an alternative to meal-sized burger patties, the Salud Food Group also produces a smaller bite-sized version of this product in the form of Garbanzo Bites nuggets. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Alternative Hamburger Patties:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore creating alternative burger patties with different ingredients and flavors for unique dining experiences. - **Infused Burger Patties:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experiment with infusing different sauces and spreads into burger patties to enhance texture and flavor profiles. - **Bite-sized Food Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop and market bite-sized versions of popular food products to cater to different consumer preferences and occasions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate unconventional ingredients and techniques in food manufacturing processes to create novel and unique food products. - **Plant-based Food:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Expand the range of plant-based protein options with inventive products like breaded hummus burgers, satisfying the growing demand for vegetarian and vegan alternatives. - **Frozen Food:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce innovative frozen food products, such as pre-fried and frozen hummus burger patties, that offer convenience and unique taste experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Black Bean Burger Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/actual-veggies-black-bean-patty.md) - [Plant-Derived Smash Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delicious-smash-burger.md) - [Textural Veggie-Rich Burger Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/actual-veggies-burgers.md) - [Chickpea Masala Veggie Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chickpea-masala-veggie-burger.md) - [Umami Mushroom Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-actual-truffle-burger.md) - [Umami Vegan Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-based-salmon-burger.md) - [Spiced Chickpea Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiced-chickpea-burger.md) - [Flavorful Veg-Forward Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/juicy-marbles.md) - [Juicy Plant-Based Chicken Patties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fine-herbs-burger.md)
