Following the death of legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne on July 22, 2025, fans are rallying behind a unique tribute: a petition urging Chipotle to create a burrito in his honor. The campaign, launched by music outlet Loudwire on Change.org, calls for the fast-casual chain to immortalize Osbourne’s well-documented love of burritos with a menu item dubbed simply “The Ozzy”.
The idea isn’t just a gimmick—it’s rooted in Osbourne’s genuine obsession with Chipotle. In a 2003 episode of The Osbournes, Ozzy famously declared the chain his “favorite, favorite, favorite burrito joint,” even dubbing himself “Burrito Man” as he ordered two burritos a day3. His devotion earned him the very first Chipotle Celebrity Card, granting him one free meal per day for a year.
Fans Want More Than Just a Tribute
The petition has quickly gained traction, with thousands of signatures pouring in from fans who see the burrito as a fitting tribute to the Black Sabbath frontman’s quirky legacy. Some have even suggested alternate names like “The Burrito of Darkness”, “Ozzrito”, and “The Burrito of Ozz”, blending heavy metal flair with fast-food fun.
While Chipotle has yet to respond publicly, the brand’s history of celebrity collaborations and limited-edition menu drops makes the idea more than plausible. And with fans sharing photos of Chipotle burritos in Ozzy’s honor across social media, the momentum is building.
What Would Be in “The Ozzy”?
So far, no one knows exactly what Ozzy’s go-to burrito order was. But fans and food writers have speculated it would likely be extra meaty, boldly spiced, and maybe even a little chaotic—just like the man himself. Loudwire has called on anyone in Ozzy’s camp to share his preferred ingredients, hoping Chipotle might use it as the blueprint for the tribute burrito.
A Legacy Beyond Music
Ozzy Osbourne’s influence extended far beyond the stage. From his reality TV antics to his offbeat food obsessions, he carved out a persona that was equal parts rock god and lovable oddball. A Chipotle burrito in his name wouldn’t just honor his taste—it would celebrate the humor, eccentricity, and unapologetic weirdness that made him a cultural icon.
