QDOBA is Celebrating National Burrito Day with a BOGO - Because Two Burritos are Better Than One!

Leading Fast-Casual Mexican Restaurant Launches Buy One, Get One Free "Burrito Insurance"  Promotion and Reveals Most Gen Z Fans Won't Be Sharing Their Free One!

SAN DIEGO, March 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Burritos make everyone happy, but sometimes, just one isn't enough. That's why, just in time for what it's calling "National Burrito Burrito Day" on Thursday, April 3, QDOBA is giving guests a free extra burrito as "burrito insurance" to ensure they enjoy a flavorful meal. For one day only, rewards members will receive a free entrée with the purchase of any entrée and a drink (offer excludes quesadillas). Whether you're extra hungry, need a burrito replacement, or just want to share with a friend, QDOBA has guests covered.

In anticipation of Burrito Insurance redemption, the leading fast-casual Mexican restaurant conducted an independent survey¹ of 1,000 Gen Z burrito lovers, which revealed that 78% would invariably keep a free burrito rather than share. In fact, QDOBA reports that two-thirds (66%) of Zoomers aren't thrilled when someone asks for a bite of their burrito even when more than 80% of Gen Zers admit to being able to eat burritos multiple times a week.

"With our Burrito Insurance promotion, QDOBA ensures our guests can enjoy their favorite burritos without worry on National Burrito Day," explains Jon Burke, Vice President of Digital and National Media at QDOBA. "And we love finding new and unique ways to bring more value and flavor to our QDOBA rewards members."

QDOBA's latest survey highlights just how much Gen Z loves burritos, with fun insights including:

• 85% say queso and/or guacamole – which is free on any QDOBA entrée – is their favorite burrito topping
• 66% would grab a burrito on a first date
• Nearly half (49%) of Gen Zers choose burritos for lunch, followed by 39% for dinner
• Most (57%) enjoy burritos at home, with 26% preferring to eat them on the couch

QDOBA also found that 85% of Gen Zers admit to experiencing food envy when they see someone else's meal – so in these situations, QDOBA's Burrito Insurance can conveniently come to the rescue!

On National Burrito Day, April 3, QDOBA Rewards members can visit participating QDOBA locations to claim their free burrito with any purchase of any entrée and a drink*.
