State Fair Food....A refreshing alternative to Politics!

What is your favorite fair food? Here in South Cak-a-laki, mine has always been the foot long corn dog with lots of mustard (the only time I eat a corn dog). We have a local icon called Fiske Fries which people stand in line to order. Always offered are the other things I don't eat, elephant ears, polish sausage, candy apples and cotton candy. This year, there are two new offerings; deep fried cherries dipped in chocolate and deep fried bacon dipped in chocolate called "Sweet Piggy!" I am looking forward to my once a year artery clogging afternoon!

Wow that would be great for my cholesterol and tryglyceride numbers

Ya can deepfry just about anything and it taste better even bacon thats hilarious

Well my vote goes for deep fried pickles, bannannas and those greasy string fries with vineger washed down with one of those shaken lemonades. Bon Appétit

We're going this Wednesday. Tme to photograph the herds of people grazing on the manna that comes from a deep fryer.

Deep fried butter anyone?

Fletcher's always does a special addition for the Texas state fair (which is on right now), it is a cheddar jalepeno corny dog.

Boston Mike - I would really like to try that "Deep fried hot dogs over white rice topped with a brown gravy", but we do not get that in Texas. I know I would like that.

If anyone did see something like that at the Texas state fair, let me know where it was.

Caramel apples.

Kettle corn hot & fresh from the big-ass copper kettle being stirred by a burly man hoilding a big-ass wooden spoon.

Hot apple cider.
