50 States of Fair Food

Fair food’s deep-fried reputation has gotten a makeover, thanks to food line-ups that highlight pride-of-state agriculture, regional foodways and local vendors. Fairgoers can sip California wine slushies in a wine garden, order a Nebraska beef Reuben burger from a chuck wagon or savor Vermont maple syrup soft serve in a sugar house. The fried goodies are here too, but even deep-fried fair classics like funnel cake, burgers and candy get the local treatment. Step right up to fair bites worthy of the blue ribbon.
