Many memories are made, but the food that you tried is what sticks in your mind year-round. The Minnesota State Fair—one of the biggest in the United States—averages more than 2 million guests annually and a ton of food is consumed over the span of 300 concession stands. Each year, new concoctions and deep-fried foods show up. There are the tried-and-true foods-on-a-stick, delicious twists on fan favorites, cultural dishes, decadent over-the-top desserts and maybe, just maybe a healthy bite here and there. Some foods you’ll see year after year at your local fair and others will be just plain unique, weird or uncommon, but fun to try!

Here’s a list of 10 of the most popular state fair foods you’ll encounter around the US: And, you can keep the fun going by making your state fair food favorites at home! Whether it’s a sweet dessert, a savory dish or a fun appetizer, these state fair recipes can be made in your own kitchen and enjoyed in your own backyard. Fair recipes can also be taken to your next potluck as a fun way to do a small-scale, more intimate fair. While we will always have a love of fairs, sometimes avoiding the lines, crowds and humid temps just for the food isn’t worth it. Instead, have groceries delivered to your door, prepare a few simple recipes in the comfort of your kitchen and enjoy the first bite of just-out-of-the-oven chocolate chip cookies, Navajo Tacos or food in a cup, without anyone bumping into you or asking you to share!
