Jesus Christ, America.
And here I was still flabbergasted at the existence of fried butter.

 

[Yazzees]

Texas is ridiculous and I will never stop paying good money to not have to live there.

[RyanW]

In for the cream puffs just for Cafe du Monde

 

[mnannola]

Funnel cake queso burger?

Sounds fucking awesome.

Oh no...it gets better. At our state fairs....we have cookies by the bucket. BY THE BUCKET!!!

 

[Neuromancer]

The Surfin Turfin Tator Boat makes me laugh. Good work, Texas.

 

[Ventara]

1st and 7th look good. The rest look like new art projects.

 

[Kitsunebaby]

Those fajita fries and tamale donut look good.

I love cream puffs, but I'm of the mind that frying them would ruin everything I like about them (assuming they're actually decent cream puffs and not just shitty frozen ones).

 

[ThaiGrocer]

I wanna fast for six months and go wild at that fair.

 

[Aselith]

Fajita fries look p good

 

[Zaventem]

Some of these look really good.

 

[KodaRuss]

Only reason to go to the state fair.

And the corn dogs.

One of the best ones I ever had there was the fried buffalo chicken tender wrapped in a flapjack served with maple syrup. It was amazing.

....

What?

 

[Cardon]

The creation of that funnel cake burger has made me believe in God again. Looks so good as an obvious heart attack inducing food.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

The potato seems fine. I'd bite.

 

[Premium Quality]

What kind of "queso" are we talking about?
This always annoys me when big chain "Mexican restaurants" offer it with no details.
In case you don't know, queso is Spanish for cheese.

 

[nomster]

I'd eat all of that, but the funnel cake looks like the worst one, followed by the popcorn.

 

[KodaRuss]

....

What?

Cant find a picture of it but it won best taste that year. Basically chicken and waffles on a stick.

 

[Fat4all]

Fish bowls aren't new, I had one like 4 years ago

there's a dive near me dedicated to fishbowls

they tasty too

 

[GKSilKamina]

I'll take one of each, please.

 

[Branduil]

Fajita fries look legitimately good.

 

[JeTmAn81]

It's wine popcorn or fish bowl for me. Most looks like deep fried garbage.

 

[Trouble]

How the fuck do you deep fry chicken noodle soup?

 

[v1lla21]

This makes me proud to be American.

 

[Mesoian]

God, I would eat all of that.

And have to do wind sprints the next day to work it off...

 

[Loxley]

Stare Fair and Stadium foods represent American cuisine in it's most ludicrous and hilarious. It's basically a requirement that everything be as terrible for you as possible, but at the same time delicious as fuck.

 

[itwasTuesday]

How the fuck do you deep fry chicken noodle soup?

Just a guess how they do it. But you could cover in a noodle and have the soup be frozen when you drop it in the oil, or gelatinous. Same way soup dumplings are done.

Eh, it's normally cheddar and Monterey Jack if yellow queso or asadero and Monterey Jack if white queso if it's good quality. Otherwise, it's white or yellow American cheese. Not that you can't make good queso with American cheese, you just can't hit the highs of less processed cheese.

 

[JeTmAn81]

"Queso" also bothers me since I am familiar with Spanish enough to automatically just translate it into cheese. Do I want some cheese? Well, I guess I always do.

 

[SchrodingerC]

I'm getting a mild heart attack just looking at these foods.

 

[mugurumakensei]

Well, the full form is chile con queso though it'd be more apt to say queso con chile most of the time since there's more cheese than chili peppers and spices unless you're talking about Chili's.

If there's more words it doesn't bug me as much. I usually don't think of arroz con pollo instantly as chicken with rice.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

I'd eat them all

 

[loki 16]

The tamale donut actually looks good.

 

[RedBaron17]

+1 for that Tamal(e) donut. It sounds fucking delicious.

 

[Envelope]

not gonna lie i'd stuff my face with half of those

 

[Vyer]

Here's the stuff introduced last year.

 

[Servbot24]

The funnel cake literally looks like clogged guts.

 

[____]

They'd have to roll me out of there on a stretcher, likely under cardiac arrest.

 

[Kickz]

Oh no...it gets better. At our state fairs....we have cookies by the bucket. BY THE BUCKET!!!

Got these last year

 

[Zen Aku]

These JRPG boss monsters get sillier and sillier.

And tastier.

 

[Simplet]

I never understand how americans can eat the same 8 or 9 food items stuffed inside each other or stacked on top of each other over and over and over again and not become insane. Everytime I come in one of these threads the novelty is about pizza crust filled with tiny hamburgers and deep fried with bacon.

That said the tamale donut looks like it could be interesting,even though it probably just tastes like fried grease.

 

[Strangelove77]

Just call it fucking cheese already.

 

[hydruxo]

Are state fairs just an excuse to eat even worse junk food than usual?

It's literally the only reason to go to a state fair tbh.

 

[Crossing Eden]

 

[molnizzle]

It's literally the only reason to go to a state fair tbh.

Yep.

 

[NewGame]

Food was a mistake.




Ah that's right

 

[Frozenprince]

We got fried food down to a science in the lone star state boy

 

[mariachi507]

I'm pretty sure my body would shut down for the day after eating any of those.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I'd give the froot loops a go.

Hard pass on everything else.
