These are not official state foods. They are what the source website has decided to appoint as the favorite food for each.

This is a list of official state foods:

EDIT: Corrected link; source page is down and had originally linked to wrong page. Used archive.org to get to original.

It’s true though and freaking excellent.
The lack of anything listed? I was talking about the link above with official state foods, not the OP. Love green chili as an (but who calls it chili verde?)
Having lived here for over a decade, and 2 states prior, I think the breakfast burrito deserves some recognition as an official food though. With green chili, of course.
Oh, I didn’t even click through to read that, lol. No one calls it chili verde, you’re right. Breakfast burritos with green chili sauce … yeah. That’s a contender too. I’ve lived in CO for almost 20 years.
