Hot: Day 10-Indiana State Fair

August 10, 2008

Remember when we went to the Indiana State Fair last year?

This year only solidified my love for the fair.

I love, LOVE the Indiana State Fair. Love. Not even kidding. Love.

(And it wasn’t even that hot this year, thanks for a fairly mild summer Indiana, seriously, thanks.)

Comments off.

Looking up flights to Indiana now…

Our local fair apparently had/has (I don’t know if it’s still going on) Deep Fried CUPCAKES!

Nanettes last blog post..Sweet!

I made deep fried mini-snickers for my family. Everyone thought I was INSANE.

UNTIL THEY ATE THEM.

Best freaking thing on the planet. Sigh.

Oh, I miss state fairs!!! Up here in Canada they don’t have states, so they don’t have state fairs! I wonder if they have provincial fairs…

I literally grew up at this State Fair…literally. So your photos are making me a little homesick (though not for the FOOD featured)! My father was working there the day I was born. No kidding — he received a police escort to the hospital! Someone in my family has had an exhibit, job, or other capacity with the state fair over the course of the past four decades. Lots of memories…and the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

Oh my gosh! I haven’t been to a fair in so long!
All that fried goodness, does it come with a side of heart attack?

I get Deep Fried Oreos whenever we go to Vegas. 3 for 99 cents and they are DIVINE! I would totally taste all of those!
“cept the Pepsi, I remember your story about the pepsi.

Utah’s state fair can be kinda lame. And expensive. Opted for Lagoon one year, cuz it was cheaper??? Which was weird.

And whoa. Those are some serious water marks? I was thinking about stealing…but now? No way!!

Good & Crazys last blog post..The three with the twos…

Maybe it’s being British, living in England so never experiencing the delights of a State fair, but the very idea of deep fried snacks makes me want to jump on my wii fit and stay there for the afternoon to burn off the calories even the THOUGHT of eating those has added to my hips!

Please, enlighten the uninitiated: how exactly does one deep fry Pepsi?

(Also: deep fried peanut butter cups? May be enough reason for me to consider going to Indiana.)

SciFi Dads last blog post..The Waning Days Of Three

Oh my word. That looks like deep fried paradise. Can I come?

Mrs. Wilsons last blog post..08.08.08

WoW! Oh the memories. I spent many a summer day has been spent yakking up the crap purchased at the Indy Fair..my first concert to see NKOTB was there.

Anissa@Hope4Peytons last blog post..Does anyone else miss Smurfs?

Am I the only one who sees the person behind the Deep Fried Peanut Butter Cups who obviously is a taste-tester for All Things Deep Fried???!!???

You must explain how the Deep Fried Pepsi works.

Auburn Gal Alwayss last blog post..File this under secret (?) humiliation

Oh, how I miss that fair! Its been decades since I’ve attended one. They didn’t even have deep fried peanut butter cups yet! The only deep fried anything we could get were elephant ears. Yum!

Mitchs last blog post..A Patient at the Door with a Gun

I’m all for a watermark, but yours makes it hard to see your lovely photos!

Did that say “deep fried Pepsi”? WTF?

This makes me reminiscent of bubbagump shrimp.

Apparently you can fry just about anything. Deep fried pepsi might be awful, but deep fried dr pepper might be a WHOLE nother story, knawmsayin?

Josies last blog post..Beanies

We had a blast there last week! Did you try the deep fried cookie dough? I wanted to, but the Snickers was calling my name because I seriously LOVE all that gooey goodness. YUM

Debbies last blog post..Kick Ass Black Beans

Yes, please explain deep fried Pepsi…I don’t get it. But the fair, looks awesome. We have the CNE here…similar…but I don’t think they have the brownies…I’d be so into that!

Deep fried Pepsi?

Surely they jest.

I think I need a Tums. Right now.

So hilarious. You need to do a whole post on deep-fried pepsi because I’m another one who can’t even imagine what that’s like.

The last time I went to the Indiana State Fair was years ago when I lived in Bloomingulch, and the fair was about 117 degrees. I nearly died.

threeundertwos last blog post..Feeling Loved

My city’s fair is this weekend. I’m pretty excited about taking photos of it. However, I am not excited about the fact that it stinks like body odor and feet.

shamelessly sassys last blog post..Whiner, Winer, Whiner.

Yeah… the whole deep fried thing scares me. I love my hot oil and all, but maybe I’d feel differently after I rode in a Tilt-A-Whirl for an hour or so.

Reeses last blog post..Dinner Plans 1, Husband 2, My Own Laziness 2

Casey! Guess what? I’m about to check an experience off my life list this coming Tuesday night. Wanna know what?

So I went to the fair on Sat. and asked a funnel cake vendor if I could work a shift next week….and I’m doing it!

Now that’s hot. and stinky, and sweaty, and probably a little sticky too.

WooHoo!

DesignHER Mommas last blog post..I’m excited…

OMG, everything is fried? Looks like my kind of place!

Jens last blog post..A perfect summer day

Hmmm. Do I detect a theme?

Kates last blog post..A Break to Blog

Well now I am just annoyed that you didn’t take me

The Diaper Diariess last blog post..Random, Random Information

Can I have my pepsi only slightly fried please I don’t need it deep fried. I wonder if they have deep fried pepsi light they use diet pepsi instead.

Jamison Hemmerts last blog post..The Month of July

and we wonder why obesity is such an issue in the us!! take someone already bad for you and make it just a wee bit more bad for you, eh?

it’s probably DELICIOUS, though especially the deep fried cookie dough….

alis last blog post..a story of my first time. and my last time.

How does one go about deep-frying Pepsi???

Megs last blog post..Mind Shift!

You have made me miss my childhood visits to the IN State Fair!

Chases last blog post..Kitchen Changes II

Okay, I went to the County fair here last weekend and there was definitely NOT any deep-fried Pepsi! I feel so cheated! I guess that’s what I get for abandoning the Midwest for granola-crunchy Northern California!

Also, I’m with the group begging to please be enlightened on how deep-fried Pepsi works!

Ok, so I googled Deep-Fried Pepsi, and hello disappointment! It’s just Pepsi mixed into some cookie-ish dough and then fried. Cheaters! Here’s a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTAOBQmFdNk

You had me at “Deep-Fried Peanut Butter Cups…”

Hasn’t this weather been the best?! We had an awesome weekend too!

The arteries, they clog.

(sssh. Don’t tell, but it sounds like perfection, to be honest.)

Major Bedheads last blog post..I Win!

Eww on the deep fried everything. Yay on the weather. I think Indiana might be teasing us though. 98 on Halloween or below zero by September could be in our future! Even so, these last few days have been so great. Being outside non-stop the last week before my daughter heads back to school is worth whatever may come.

Erins last blog post..Karate Kid

Yum, Yum Yum! I love me some fried food – especially at a really good fair.

Plus – you can justify that all the walking around at the fair helps burn the calories off? Worth a try!

just julis last blog post..An ambitious lush

I have yet to venture into the land of fried candies because I fear I will run to Target, buy a Fry Daddy and gain 300 pounds.

Melanie @ Mel, A Dras last blog post..Sunday News That Didn’t Make the News

Only Midwestern State Fairs would deep fry Pepsi
