Hi Ethan, it's one of my favorites. I even have a method to the madness. Eat the greasy foods like deep fried cheese curds and the blooming onion first, so they have time to digest before you hit the carnival rides on the midway. State fair food deserves its own post, though, so I won't say anymore right now.
