The New Food This Year at The Fair

Food is synonymous with the Minnesota State Fair. In fact, it is one of the fair's many staples that makes it so great.

Over at the Pioneer Press they posted an article listing all the new foods that will be available this year. And me oh my is my mouth salivating as I read this list. Here are some of my personal highlights:

-- Big Andy, a quarter-pound hamburger topped with Philly steak, sauteed onions, red and green peppers and American-Swiss cheese, at Andy's Grille

-- Chipotle Chicken Salad Fajita, with walnuts, craisins and apples with shredded lettuce,chipotle sour cream and a hint of honey in a tortilla, at Juanita's Fajitas

-- Mancini's Signature Steak Sandwich, on grilled focaccia and served with sauteed peppers and onions, at Mancini's Al Fresco 

-- Peanut Butter & Jelly Malts and Sundaes, at Goertze's Dairy Kone (I know it sounds weird, but I am genuinely curious what it will taste. For better or for worse, I will be buying this at the Fair.) 

And of course there are a couple of WTF food items on the list, like:

-- Fried Pickles 'n' Chocolate, deep-fried pickles dusted with powdered sugar and served with a side of chocolate for dipping, at Preferred Pickles
