Brought to you by our county fair being 3 blocks away, and my friend saying she will bring me some crap food around 3. So now I need to decide what I want. Besides everything.
So what's your favorite fair food?

    The Minnesota State Fair is the bees knees when it comes to food (on a stick!)

    Our must haves include:
    Pork Chop on a stick
    Milkshake/Sundae from the Dairy building
    Fried Pickles
    Sweet martha's cookies
    roasted corn
    pronto pup
    cheese curds
    and usually something "weird"/interesting/new on the menu! http://www.mnstatefair.org/fun/new_food/

    @islandmonkey8  and @brij2006  It was on a stick and kind of looked like a greasy corn dog.  I think it has something to do with the sugar hitting the hot grease that solidifies the outer part into a shell., So when we bit into it, it kind of oozed into your mouth but the outside was hard enough to keep everything in. Those carnies and their gypsy magic.  I guess I'll never really know!

    The theme that year was "everything fried!"

    2500 Comments Fifth Anniversary 250 Love Its Name Dropper
    I love carnie fries and hot sausages. We also have our "Farm Show" in January which is sort of an indoor fair. They have an amazing food court. One of my favorites there is the potato donuts.
