Earlier this week, a new video surfaced on BTS' official YouTube channel featuring Jungkook trying Chipotle for the first time after filming for The Late Late Show With James Corden.

The artist is seen holding the restaurant's signature Burrito Bowl and asked, "What is this, Chicotle?" J-Hope commented: "I thought you said chocolate." After taking his first bite, Jungkook looks pleased with his meal and adds, "I want to eat this every day."

Meanwhile, ARMYs had a sudden craving for Chipotle and ordered their own Burrito Bowls after watching the septet enjoy their lunch. "'Chicotle' for lunch! My husband got the burrito and my daughter and I got the steak bowl," one user tweeted, while another said: "Did I just buy Chicotle because of @BTS_twt you #BTS_Butter believe it @ChipotleTweets #BTS."
