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.
