Well, welcome to the Texas State Fair.

Ah, there’s nothing like “fair food”, and the Texas State Fair is famous for being the birthplace of some of the most INSANE food creations in the world–INCLUDING “Deep Fried Chicken Noodle Soup on a Stick”, which is on the list of new things that’ll be on sale when the fair opens September 29th.

They just released the list–but didn’t release descriptions of what these things actually are–so you’ll just have to use your imagination.  But just on name alone, you can tell there’re some AMAZING taste-treats…like:

Beer battered beef jerky.

Fried Texas dirt. (Apparently, the “dirt” is crushed up Oreos).

Oreo beer.

Deep fried breakfast cupcakes.

Funnel cake bacon queso burgers.

Deep fried Fruit Loops.

Fried redneck cake balls. (?)

Fat smooth. Yes it’s just called “Fat Smooth”, which sounds like either an overweight rapper or a James Bond villain. But the Fair folks say it’s “three delicious Belgian mini cream puffs on a skewer, dipped in a Cafe’ Du Monde beignet batter, fried until golden brown, then dusted in powdered sugar and drizzled with a chocolate and caramel sauce”.

(Which to me sounds a little too “foo-foo” for Texas…though it might be safer than the “redneck balls”.)

Enjoy!
