Cheap "booritos" support a good cause at Chipotle today

POSTED: Monday, October 31, 2011, 11:35 AM

Chipotle is holding its annual "Boorito" Halloween promo today. In the past, the Mexi chain has encouraged patrons to dress up like menu items to get free food, but this year they're doing it a little differently — show up at any Philly location between the hours of 6 p.m. and closing dressed in a costume inspired by "the family farm," and you'll get a burrito, tacos, a salad or a bowl for two bucks. Come as a humanely raised animal (a jolly pig perhaps?), a farmer or a locally grown vegetable for access to a cheap dinner; the idea is to drive funds and attention to Chipotle's Cultivate Foundation, which shows support to family farms and promotes sustainable agriculture and food education.

In addition, there’s an online costume contest. Take a photo of yourself dressed in your farm-inspired costume at a Chipotle today and upload it at chipotle.com/boorito, or text “COSTUME” to 888222. The grand-prize winner will get $2,500, five runners-ups will get a grand each and 25 honorable mentions will receive a burrito party for 10 friends.
