The Deep (Fried) South

Part Two of our Creative Director, Sarah’s adventures in Oklahoma. Thanks for the post, Sarah! (With photo commentary by Bryna.)

The Oklahoma State Fair is the one yearly event that anyone who is in Oklahoma should attend, if only to see the wide variety of food that can be fried and served on a wooden stick!
 
After fighting with traffic to find a parking spot, my family attended the fair, and had quite the eye opening experience. You can definitely tell where some Oklahomans get their “shapely” figure from.
 
Some examples of the most interesting deep fried foods, served on a stick are:

Jalapeño
Pickles
Butter with Sugar
Twinkies
Oreos
Cheese
Snickers
Hot dogs
Steak
Mash Potatoes and bacon
Pizza
 

I'm assuming this is Chris, and I'm assuming this is the dinner portion of the meal.

Then for dessert, chocolate dipped bananas, cheese cake, ice cream and there are so much more! But wait ! Don’t forget to finish your meal with curly friends and a turkey drumstick!!

Certainly an experience worth going to if you are in Oklahoma!
