It used to be funnel cakes, then it moved on to Italian Sausages, then to the fries. After they came out with deep fried Snickers….well, you just gotta understand….chocolate + batter + deep frying = one very happy Chocolatechic!!!
My Friday Burning Question is what is your favorite fair food?
Chocolatechic 
Stromboli!!!!
Teriyaki beef. The first time I had this at the Del Mar Fair, I knew what heaven was like. Of course, I was a teen and dying of hunger at the time.
It must be a southern thing. They fry anything you can imagine down here. It costs more to get your food broiled or grilled then it does deep fried… Have you ever heard of deep fried biscuits? straight out of the can? I have a deep fryer & I hate it. I’d rather use it outside because it stinks up the house & it is sooooo bad for you. Why would any sane “yankee” FRY a Snickers bar??????????
Elephant Ears!
I like the funnel cakes. I also have a taste for fair hot dogs. They just taste different for some reason!
Mine is still the funnel cake!
Fried Snickers????
Well, I don’t remember ever going to a fair in the States. The last time I went to something like a fair was in the early 1980’s in Spain. I think what I am thinking of would be sort of like funnel cake. It was some kind of dough that was squeezed into a huge caldron of hot oil in a spiral and fried and then covered in chocolate syrup or powdered sugar. And it wasn’t really a fair, it was the weekly Gypsy Market… Oh, well… I guess I haven’t been to a fair.
I don’t know about putting “burning and food” in the same sentance….
favorate??? …Italian or mexican..
Favorite Fair Food???
Last summer and this summer it was the cheesecake in a cone and the little donut holes that we couldn’t get enough of.
Snow cones :p
Walking tacos. That was years ago. Haven’t been to a fair in so long .
Blooming Onions!
I do like funnel cakes and snow cones. And will steal large swipes of my kids’ cotton candy.
It used to be gyros wraps, but they stopped being at the fair, so I suppose #2 is #1 now — apple fritters.
My favorite is walking taco. I really don’t get into the sweet stuff, but, give me a walking taco or few and i am happy as can be.
I guess that Alaska is made up of so many different groups that the foods are all here plus many unique to Alaska.
We’ve had the fried candy bars, twinkies, and porkchops as well as corn on the cob, funnel cakes, elephant ears, tamales,turkey legs, salmon & halibut in various ways. We have the gyros and apple fritters. We’re just a huge melting pot up here. 😆
