Should I or shouldn't I...

So I'm going to Minneapolis this weekend and on Sunday will attend the FAMOUS Minnesota State Fair (if you haven't gone...you need to go before you die).

Anyway, one of the big things at the fair is the "new food" that everybody is talking about.

This year it's Spaghetti and Meatballs On A Stick.

What the? I am having a hard time even picturing what that looks like. They also have battered bananas foster bites on a stick...which sound divoooooooooon.

Should I try both? Neither? Could somebody add a picture of spaghetti and meatballs on a stick?

I say for the sake of the experience you have to at least order some Spaghetti and Meatballs on a stick! Then you can say to others:

“Ya! Well I bet you've never had Spaghetti and Meatballs on a stick!” and the stick your tongue out and say "So there. Neener".

I wonder if they tie it up with other spaghetti? Or if its like how they make cotton candy?

what if it's like chef boyardee frozen on the stick...dipped in french bread batter then fried?

I just threw up a little in my mouth...yet I'm oddly hungry.

"I just threw up a little in my mouth"

One of Skoggs first "Sociofoo"
comments and always a classic!

Hey we just shortened the movement name
(ok Skogg? Let's lose the "L", that's my vote.

Skoggle, I went looking for an image of spaghetti and meatballs on a stick and came up empty handed.

I did however find a run down on the marvelous culinary offerings at the MN State Fair. Here goes...'Spaghetti and meatballs on a stick, battered bananas foster bites on a stick, cheeseburger calzones on a stick, Thai flavored sausage on a stick and a footlong pronto pup. There is also, chocolate dipped potato chips, grilled chocolate sandwich, chocolate covered sunflower seeds and mini cinnamon rolls served with soft ice cream.'

For crying out loud, how come Minnasotans are having so much more fun than we are?

That footlong pronto pup is called a "Pappa Pup" and it's a 10 inch hot dog, dipped in batter and deep fried.

And when we say "pronto pup," we're talking about the big mahma jahmas.

I'll try and find the spaghetti on a stick and take a picture for everybody.

I'm also having some self-reflection on whether or not the chocolate dipped potato chips would be tasty treats.

Because Minnesotans have money, and because it's cold there.

Oh yeah, Skogg...as my friend Harlan says, "I'm just tumescent."
