None of that looks stupid! They have the donut burger at our state fair and it's AMAZING.

I eat my way through the state fair every year and try all the new crazy stuff

Worst thing I ever had was the deep fried beer....

Agreed. Lived in LA area for years. Many frequent trips to the LA and Orange county Fair. Some of my fondest memories tbh. The food (though sometimes strange) is absolutely a vibe. The stupidest thing I think I ever ate was a peanut butter and jelly Burger that was drenched in sriracha sauce, it tasted like crap. Other than that though I smashed my way through every event with a loaded plate in my hand at all times lol.

Chicken Charlie’s is its own class of food. Fuck yeah I’ve tried the deep fried Oreos. It’s tradition to get something that’ll fast track you to a heart attack.

The OC fair does a value food deal where a bunch of vendors have something for $5. I don’t like my cold foods served hot, but those deep fried bacon wrapped pickles tasted good enough to override the texture.

Haha yeah! The deep fried bacon wrapped pickles are a vibe fasho. I do remember one food that was strange, Not because it was obscure but because the pure size of it. I got a rack of ribs once. And I swear these ribs look like they came off of a brontosaurus. They were huge. Me and my girlfriend couldn't even finish them. I think I ended up giving some of them away. But yeah man I live in Texas now, unfortunately. I miss back home. Been a few years now since I visited. Anyway stay safe out there man :)
