My MIL must have her taffy every year from our State Fair. Since I'm at our Fair every day of the 12 day run, I've have quite a list of must eats.
Here's a sample:
Baker's Chicken Coop - this family has for over 20 years now only produced their BBQ chicken at the NYSF. It's just wonderful!
Pizza Frittes - these are 2 foot long strips of fried doe (sp?) sprinkled with sugar and cinnimom (sp?). Has a very different taste then the traditional flat fried doe.
Apple Pie & Ice Cream - this treat has been at the fair for as long as I can remember! I get a few of these during the run.
Dipp'n Dots - Ice cream of the future. It's more available around here now. But it wasn't long ago, I could only find it at the NYSF or WDW.
Chicken Spiedes - from the Gianelli Sausage people. Simply strumptous!!
Baked Corn on the Cob - I have a few of these during the fair. I nice hot but quick snack. Pour butter and add some seasoning. Very good.
I have more. We have an International Building filled with ethnic foods. I try a few new countries every year.
Aren't State Fairs great!
