Texas State Fair this year featured DF BUTTER!! LOL

Man, that is one of the only things I miss about Texas, State Fair.

If they would use real lard and coconut oil, it would not be a health problem

I've actually made the roast beef sundaes. It was pretty good, if you don't mind your food touching

Deep... fried... key lime pie??? Something about that just screams wrong, even more than the twinkies...

They can fry my avocado when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.

Fry anything and I'll eat it! I discovered fried cheese curds 2 years ago at the Big E state fair in Mass. Yum.

There is even "chicken fried bacon"....now that sounds interesting.

About the only one I probably wouldn't try is the Krispie Kreme Chicken sandwich. What I can see of the pic it's like a large piece of crunchy fried chicken breast stuffed into a krispie kreme for a bun. Maybe I'd do either/or, but both together?? The idea of sweet fried chicken just doesn't sound good to me.

I always liked the df mushrooms & veggies with a ranch dip, but they haven't served those in a few years around here and I miss em.
One year we did have the df candy bars. Those were good too
