Hot BEEF Sundae

The Iowa State Fair is currently under way and going strong . . .

I've only been to 2 fairs in my whole life.

The first time I ever saw farm animals was at the zoo on the lakefront in Chicago...

The state fair is a big to-do here in Iowa. It's 'Internationally Acclaimed.'

It's the perfect place to people-watch.

You'll see the fattest of the fat.

The hickest of the hicks.

The people that really love their animals.

And what are they doing?

Eating fried food.


On a STICK.

Fried Twinkies.

Fried Pickles.

Deep Fried Oreos.

Last year the Food of the Fair was a Chili Dog On A Stick.

This year it's the Hot BEEF Sundae.

A bowl, generously filled with hand-mashed buttery potatoes surrounded by slow-roasted fork-tender roast beef topped with savory beef gravy, sprinkled with Cheddar cheese and finished with a ripe red cherry tomato.

Delicious.
