Female Green Burrito (So Cal) burrito champion
OCMexFood has a review of Green Burrito in La Habra, California which includes a picture of the restaurant’s burrito champion. The picture has the following caption:
This is a winner, who came to the GREEN BURRITO one lucky Saturday in November. Our winner ate three (3) Big Ed Burritos and claimed $300.00. The owner of the GREEN BURRITO could not believe that this little 130lb, 5’9″ girl really ate all three Big Ed Burritos. He challenged her. “Come back next Saturday, eat three Big Ed Burritos and I’ll give you $1000.00. If you cannot do it, you must return the first $300.00
SHE DID IT
Again – three Big Ed Burritos weighing over 7 lbs. [presumably total - not 7 lb. each] in less than 35 minutes and won $1,300.00. BELIEVE IT OR NOT!!
Reports about the burrito champion have been floating around the internet have been floating about the internet since at least 2001. No information is provided in the blog entry about the champion’s name or date of her challenges (it was probably in the 1980s based on the jacket style). The $300 award for finishing three Big Ed burritos has apparently not been available since Carl’s Jr. acquired the Green Burrito chain.

The picture above is, obviously, a photo of a photo. By my recollection, that picture hung in every Green Burrito. I’d seen it many times in the early 90s and never had been to one in La Habra, so there’s no way I could’ve seen it where this occurred.

Responding to a two year old post? I thought my computer was slow. Hey have you also heard that this guy named O’Bama may run for president and Jay Leno wants to get back on the Tonight Show.
