Fair Food!

The Texas State Fair doesn't just do regular fair food, they do it big! The food vendors here have gone to such extremes in the last few years, that the yearly offerings usually make the news around the country, and the fair now gives out the Big Tex awards every year for the top ten newcomers, the best new taste and the most inventive. For us Spanglers, this was what we came to the fair to do!

Here we are, about to go into the food court. Bring it on!













Greg's first choice was the fried rib...











pretty good, but a little dry.










I figured "go big or go home," so I selected the koolaid pickle. Yes, you read that right, koolaid pickle. A big 'ol dill, soaked in koolaid, then sprinkled with koolaid powder.

Here we go- giving it a try.


It was pretty much what you'd expect.
Overpowering sour, overpowering sweet. Makes your hair stand up on end and your eyes bug out.
None of us could do more than three bites.
