Let's be honest with each other.  The reason we go to the fair is to eat, right? Because for some reason, food at the fair taste better.  Today and Friday you have the chance to find out just what I mean with some Aiken fair food!

The Western Carolina State Fair in Aiken will open the gates on Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. the fair will be open for lunch.  Now, before you head over, just know that the rides and games will not be operating.  So, if you want to get your fix of fair foods then today and Friday are the days for you.

  1. Deep Fried Oreos
  2. Funnel Cakes
  3. Jumbo Corn Dogs
  4. Fries - with and without the vinegar
  5. The Big Ol' Turkey Legs
  6. Boiled Peanuts

Now you see it all the time at baseball stadiums and at fairs, there are some really out there foods at the fair.  One of the wildest I've ever seen, and yes, I tried it one time, was the Doughnut Burger.  The same as a cheeseburger, replace the bun with a Krispy Kreme.  Don't knock it till you try it.  Now it wouldn't be on my menu on the regular, but I tried it and it wasn't bad at all.

Other Items That Are Out There A Bit At The Fair

  • From the Arizona State Fair - Deep-Fried Scorpion
  • From the Kansas State Fair -Pickle Pops
  • The Utah State Fair - Deep Fried Jello
  • At the Alaska State Fair - Reindeer Hotdogs
  • Texas Fair - Deep Fried Bubble Gum
  • The North Carolina State Fair - Deep Fried Pickles In Kool-Aid

So with today and tomorrow being a wide open lunch for all at The Western Carolina State Fair in Aiken, get on over and have lunch at the fair.

Aiken Fair Food We Love

The Turkey Leg

Does this just not look like heaven on earth?  Let's Go!

So Much To Pick From

So many options.  From the fries to ice cream.  It's why we go to the fair.

Look At This Spread

One of each please.  Ok, let's be honest, 2 or each and a to go on the Deep Fried Oreos.

Who Doesn't Just Love This

Who doesn't love a good funnel cake from the fair?  Personally, I go plain with just powered sugar and wear it on my shirt the rest of the night.

The Fries

Don't tell me you wouldn't cover those in ketchup and then go back and get another order.  I would!

Fried Oreo Vs Funnel Cake

There's no competition here, they both win.  So, we have to get both.

We Don't Judge

If we were to grade these funnel cakes, they would get an A+.  The only reason they get an A+? There's not a higher grade!
