“I eat this every day and it’s been about, since 2013-14, so about 10 years,” Mikal Bridges explained. “Still been on it heavy to this day. I have friends and family that [kid] me a little bit. It’s too fire to not have every single time, so it don’t disappoint.”
The 27-year-old also stated that he gets the same order every single time he visits Chiptole: white rice, no beans, double chicken, medium and mild salsa, corn, and lettuce.
