MN Cooks Day 2008, State Fair
5yo Drake and I enjoy different things at the fair. He wants to ride rides, watch rides, and eat cotton candy and caramel apples. I want to watch the chef demonstrations and food panels, visit the Fine Arts and Creative Activities buildings, eat a fish taco, drink minty lemonade and get a mocha frappe. Fortunately, there were a few things we agreed on and shared:
Fresh peach and pluot
Cedar Summit cups milk
Tom Thumb mini donuts
Lingonberry sno cone
Tater Tots on a stick
Wild rice hamburger
Roasted corn on the cob
1919 root beer
Nitro ice-cream cone
Next year I think we’ll go once as a family, and I’ll get a sitter so I can go by myself on MN Cooks Day.

I know I’m resurrecting an old post, but it fits.
I suppose it’s minor, but I got a kick out of it. You see, I came across a trivia question today and, of course, instantly thought of your posts on the subject. You’ll probably have a much easier time of it than I, but I’m happy to say I guessed right.
The question:
Which one of these food items won’t you find at the Minnesota State Fair?
a) alligator on a stick
b) elk burger
c) raccoon on a stick
d) porcupine meatball
