While Chipotle is known for reinventing burritos for the modern consumer, now it hopes to do the same with burgers and French fries. Much like other fast food restaurants, Chipotle's new burger concept will offer burgers, French fries and milkshakes. However, unlike other chains, Tasty Made will have a fairly limited menu that more closely resembles that of early fast food joints. The new restaurant will also follow Chipotle's commitment to using meat from animals raised without the use of hormones or antibiotics, preservative-free buns and other real ingredients. As started in a press release issued by the company: "We think there’s great strength in that original fast food model and wanted to create a restaurant built around that." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.4/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [Retail](https://www.trendhunter.com/retail) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Limited-menu Burger Chains:** The rise of limited-menu burger chains present an opportunity for streamlined operations and a focus on quality ingredients. - **Burger Reinvention:** The expansion of burger chains, like Chipotle's 'Tasty Made,' highlights the potential for innovating and reimagining the classic burger. - **Sustainable Fast Food:** The commitment to using responsibly sourced ingredients by chains like Tasty Made opens up possibilities for sustainability-focused fast food concepts. ### Where This Applies - **Fast Food:** The limited-menu burger trend can provide inspiration for traditional fast food chains to refresh their menus and operations. - **Restaurant:** The burger reinvention trend creates opportunities for new burger-focused restaurants to differentiate themselves and attract customers. - **Sustainable Agriculture:** The focus on using meat raised without hormones or antibiotics by burger chains like Tasty Made highlights the importance of sustainable agriculture practices in the food industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Latin Cuisine-Inspired Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tostada-cheeseburger.md) - [Hybrid Taco Cheeseburgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taco-cheeseburger.md) - [Limited-Time Burger Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bobbys-burgers-limited-time-menu.md) - [Fast Food Alternative Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chilis-big-qp-burger.md) - [Ultra-Thin Smash Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fatburger-flatburger.md) - [Value-Packed Smashed Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-smasher.md) - [Made-to-Order Retailer Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nittany-minitmart-signature-burger-menu.md) - [Cheeky Competitor-Inspired Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-big-way.md) - [Flavourful Smash Burger Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smash-hit-burge.md)
