I did it. I actually did not eat my way through the fair! I was pleasantly surprised that there were some options! I did not eat them all of course but for those who were worried here is what I saw..
*Pork Chop and Chicken Breast on a stick ~ tried the chicken yum but dry!
*Dairy building has cheese sticks and yogurt but I am guessing high in sugar yogurt.
*Fruit by International Bazaar and in Food Court~I had watermelon yummy!
*Mexican place by Grand Stand had refried beans
*Lots of chicken options if you don't eat the bread.
*A few restraunt type places that had eggs.
*Lots of water~ there is one place in Heratage Square that offers free Crystal Light Packets with a purchase of bottled water. I also bought some almonds there that were tasty.

Enjoy the fair!

See how easy that was!!!  Thanks for sharing all the options.  It's funny to see our behavior change with our surgery....we would have NEVER noticed fruit at the fair before!!
