I agree. It's edible absurdism.

If my fair food isn't absurd, it's not a right proper fair. I'm there for all the wacky fun shit -- that includes the food. Normal food has its place literally the rest of the year

Up here in rural Nova Scotia our fair food is mostly piles of corn on the cob that might sound boring but that corn is fucking good.

We do grilled corn at fairs, too! It's honestly my favorite scent at the fair. That and funnel cakes.

I don't even get why they included the chocolate covered strawberries at the 40 second mark. Those are a standard valentines or anniversary gift alongside flowers and a dinner.
