A Food Tour of the Minnesota State Fair

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at LUC chapter.

Over two million people attended this year’s Minnesota State Fair. It’s the second largest state fair in the country and features plenty of live music, shopping, and amusement rides. But for all there is to see and do and smell, the most popular attraction is, arguably, the food!

Over 300 food vendors offer a variety of grilled, fried, and buttered goods – most of which are offered on a stick. This year was my first time visiting the fair and I made it my goal to eat as much of it as I could. 

The result? A tummy so full I felt like I could burst, and absolutely zero regrets. Check out the full video (featuring some great friends and exquisite food) above!
