California State Fair
Tuesday, August 18th, 2009There are lots of things to see at the California State Fair! They have lots of rides and lots of little stores and exhibits. They also have delicious stands for foo
d. One of the foods that they offer is deep-fried s’mores. I decided to try it! It had nice chocolatey graham cracker goodness on the outside and sweet, gooey marshmallow on the inside. Its just like a real s’more except its deep-fried. They also have french fries and my brother decided to try them. He let me try them too and I thought they were soft and tasty. He liked them too. We also bought a refillable drink cup that you can fill up again and again for $2 at any of the food stands. After that, I went to the corn on the cob stand and ordered a giant corn on the cob. They grill it in the husk and they have a table of toppings and condiments. The corn was sweet, juicy and buttery. My mom and I loved it! It was the biggest, juiciest
corn I have ever had in my whole life. Next time we go, I am getting another one of those! After that, we went to the farmers market area where there is lots of fruit, nuts, and honey sticks as well as fun animals to look at. We decided to get the grapes. They were sweet, juicy and nice and fresh too. I also tried a honey stick. It was very sweet, delicious honey. Bees are a great insect because they pollinate and make that delicious honey.
I went back the next week for another taste and I tried the deep fried Twinkies. They were crunchy and creamy and they had a choice of chocolate or strawberry toppings. I had the chocolate and I thought it was really good! Then we went inside a building and had a cinnamon roll. It was very warm and gooey and everybody loved it! Later in the day, when it was nice and hot, we went and got some shaved ice. We got watermelon flavor and it was nice and sweet, plenty of juice and it was perfect for a nice, hot day! For my overall assessment, I think the State Fair is a great place to go and sample some of the delicious foods there. You can get some delicious fruit or sweet treats to keep up your energy to go on the really fun kids’ rides and fun-houses. Its a great place to go with your family and friends!
