Fair Food. What's your fix?

 I like those HUGE turkey legs (even pre-ds!) and of course funnel cakes/elephant ears.  I haven't been to a fair in years because I couldn't ride any of the rides but this year I may have to go and take the kid!  :)

The DE state fair starts next week, and we're going on Wednesday.  Last year, DH found us deep-fried Reese's Big Cups on a stick.  They were AMAZING!  I hope they have them this year, and that I can find some deep fried butter.  If I can find the deep-fried bacon on a stick (with or without sauce), I'll have some of that.

Our traditional fair food is the Scrapple sandwich, though.  I toss most of the bread and slather the stuff in ketchup.  YUM!

I have never had a Scrapple sandwich, what is it? I am going to have my eye out for this deep fried butter. Karen 

The PX over here has started carrying Scrapple. I have 3 packages in my freezer right now.

*Drool*

I think I might need to move to the States, or perhaps do a cross country fair tour.

Being from Washington Parish home of the largest Free Fair, funnel cakes, Leatha's BBQ, corn and shrimp gumbo, hoop cheese.
It's starts the third Wednesday in October every year.

What does the largest free fair mean? Our fair is free to get into, now it is a little thing, but no gate fees, if this is what you are referring to. Never heard of hoop cheese, this is something else I am missing out on. Karen  

MMMMM....homemade rice pudding :)

Corn - I had 1 small ear (7") - last night and one more the night before. I had no issues - but I also knew going in I needed to chew it very very well,.,. It tasted great.

I live in Indiana home of the corn. I eat fresh sweet corn at least once a week when it is in season, and then can me some for the winter. I do love it in salsa. It has never bothered my gut, so I think I am lucky. Karen
