IOWA

Wacky Fair Food

The Iowa State Fair never disappoints when it comes to wacky dishes for fairgoers to sample during Iowa’s event of the summer. This year’s fair featured unique delicacies like:

Deep-fried bubble gum, which actually didn’t feature any bubble gum but just mimicked the sensation with a big, gooey deep-fried marshmallow that tastes like the color pink.

A two-foot lobster roll, which is just plain unheard of in a landlocked state like Iowa. Fairgoers couldn’t even carry—let alone eat it—themselves!

Deep-fried pepperoni chips—extra crispy, minus the pizza.

A Hot Cheeto Float, which sounds more like a dare than something you actually want to consume.
