What Colorado hummus? I live here and the only hummus I’ve seen is not from Colorado - it’s a Greek food. Colorado food would be characterized as game food (elk, bison, etc) and, of course, beer.

Wow those Great Society programs really did one heck of a job!

I’m guessing that with all the medical marjiuana shops popping up in Colorada that the munchies will kick in and the state populace will get a wee bit pot bellied.
