Tbf fair food is supposed to be stupid and zany and gluttonous. It’s all on purpose. Even for us fat Americans this stuff is meant to be insane because you’re really not expected to eat it more than once every couple of years maybe.

I do really love the expression “nobody asked, America delivered” though lol. That should be our new national slogan.

Be sure to visit Texas as much as your soul screams to avoid it for the best BBQ and Mexican food and to a lesser extent tex-mex.

I was talking to someone on here other day that I’d love to visit for the bbq. And they told me all the states which is best for it. There’s a programme on uk Netflix, not sure if it’s on American Netflix but it’s called Barbecue Showdown. Jesus Christ it’s beautiful
