Corndogs Across America: Denver, Colorado
Denver is famously known as the "Mile High City" as it rests 5280 feet above sea level. Incorporated in 1861, it is the capital of the state of Colorado and a plethora of downtown financial institutions has earned it the title of "Wall Street of the West." Nestled at the base of the Rocky Mountains, Denver is a beautiful city that enjoys more than 300 days of sunshine a year -- more than Miami or San Diego. Denver is a very educated populous with the most high school and college graduates per capita in the U.S. The first cheeseburger was invented in Denver in 1935. . . . Corndogs are an excellent source of calories, fat, cholesterol, and sodium.
