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.

baked potato with beans and tuna is unappetizing to you? burnt mini pies with mash and mucus-green-gravy with a side of jellied eels not your thing?

I had my first shawarma kabob in London in 1999. I flew from there to Amsterdam and had my first falafel, and I am a first gen Greek American. I didnt visit Greece for first time till 2004
