Like a grown-up Happy Meal, this new offering from the Los Angeles-based café taps into the wild rise in popularity of the monstrous plush collectibles, all while appealing to health-conscious kidults. While the included [Pop Mart](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/godiva-x-labubu)-authenticated Big Into Energy Blind Box with a coveted figurine is a large draw for ordering the Happy Healthy Meal, it also shares other surprises, like a special Double-Double Cheeseburger that's not on the regular menu. This plant-powered burger features a black bean patty, Violife cheddar, pickles, salad, and Gratitude Special Sauce, and is served with a side of organic ketchup. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 47% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Vegan Kidult Meals:** The merging of nostalgia and vegan culinary innovation introduces plant-based meals targeting adult consumers with youthful tastes. - **Collectible Food Offerings:** Limited-time menu items paired with collectible figurines create a unique selling point that leverages consumer demand for exclusive novelty. - **Health-conscious Indulgences:** Combining indulgent flavors with health-conscious ingredients appeals to the growing market of consumers seeking taste without guilt. ### Where This Applies - **Plant-based Food Industry:** The development of gourmet vegan options continues to disrupt traditional fast-food markets as consumers increasingly seek healthier alternatives. - **Collectibles Market:** The integration of collectible toys within food offerings highlights a cross-industry collaboration that enhances brand value and consumer engagement. - **Fast Casual Dining:** Fast casual dining experiences are being redefined by combining premium meal options with interactive and nostalgic elements. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eco Fast Food Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cool-kids-meal.md) - [Low-Cost Adult Meal Deals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grownup-meal.md) - [Playful Adult-Oriented QSR Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adult-happy-meals.md) - [Nostalgic Kidult Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-meals-for-adults.md) - [Health-Minded Fast Food Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olivers-real-foods.md) - [Blind Box Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-harissa-meal.md) - [Adult-Specific Happy Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adult-happy-meal.md) - [Adult-Focused Meal Combos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-meal-1.md) - [Retro QSR Meal Revivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonaldland.md)
