Some locals will to go to great lengths to prove just how much they love all things associated to Denver. They sport their orange and blue to show pride in the Broncos, hike up nearby mountains to check 14’ers off their list, and make sure to dine on the foods that the Mile High City is known for.
But, just how far would they be willing to go to show their devotion to Denver’s well-loved breakfast burrito? Pulling up a seat at Jack-n-Grill’s and attempting to eat their massive 7 lb. breakfast burrito in one sitting would definitely test any Denverite’s limits.
