Holy crap, I spent a lot of money on food at the fair

Chocolate-Covered Bacon

In roughly the order I ate it, here’s what I managed to devour while at the MN State Fair today:

I think that’s a comprehensive list…

About the Famous Dave’s items, the chocolate covered bacon (pig lickers) and the peach glazed pigs cheeks… neither are my new favorite. The chocolate covered bacon was, well, cold bacon with chocolate on it. It was ok, but not great. Might be better if you could get hot bacon with chocolate sauce instead? The pig’s cheek was borderline gross. One was very tender, one was very tough, neither was tasty. I ate maybe a quarter of one of them (the tender one).

On a non-food related topic, Heritage Village is nice. It’s got some historical displays and is tucked away from the crowds off to the side of the midway. I didn’t know it existed until today and apparently no one else knows it exists either as it was pleasantly less busy than the rest of the fair. It makes for a nice place to decompress for a bit before venturing out to battle the crowds again.
