Weird Fried Foods

Saturday September 27, 2008

What a great weekend to be at the State Fair! Beautiful weather. The Brad has checked out some of the weird fried foods at this year's State Fair. He's got pictures of ten of them -- well, the turkey legs and corn dogs aren't so weird. Still, he rates the chocolate-covered strawberry waffle balls pretty high, but who wouldn't? I mean, look at that ingredient list! He also likes the chicken-fried bacon, winner of the best tasting category in the Big Tex Choice Awards. My husband is looking forward to that one. My tooth is more sweet than savory, so I'll be trying the waffle balls, fried chocolate truffles, and deep-fried s'mores, among other sweets.

There are more brand-new weird fried foods at the Fair than the eight I put on the checklist. Should I make a checklist for the other ones? I have no idea how many people are out there trying to eat them all.

I found the original mention of The Brad's blog on Pegasus News, but the original blogpost contains a few more photos.
