The nationwide phenomenon that is the state fair has changed a lot since the very first one held in Syracuse, New York, in 1841. The annual event in nearly every state has outgrown its roots as a place to find award-winning crops and livestock, and gone on to encompass rides, games, and concerts, but the food has remained a mainstay attraction. The Fair is a unique space that provides both the best iterations of its classic offerings as well as new, often obscenely gluttonous innovations. Collected here are the best of what both of these worlds have to offer to hopefully make the inevitable annual experience of “seeing how much you can reasonably eat” worthwhile.
