Someburros is offering a whole new way to enjoy its authentic Sonoran-style Mexican food with the debut of Mini Burros.
For those unfamiliar, Sonoran-style cuisine is a regional cooking style that comes from the area bordering the Mexican state of Sonora and Southern Arizona. Someburros' new Mini Burros offer the same authentic Sonoran-style flavors found in its classic burritos, but in a new snack-sized format. As Tim Vasquez, Owner and President of Someburos, explains, "Mini Burros bring the same authentic Sonoran flavors our family has served for 40 years, now in a more flexible format that fits how people want to enjoy our burros today.”
With consumers increasingly looking for smaller portions – especially consumers using GLP-1s – Someburros' new Mini Burros fill an important gap in the marketplace.
