- Deep Fried Latte. Fried pastry, cappuccino ice cream, caramel sauce, whipped cream, and instant coffee powder.
- Fried Cookie Dough. Chilled cookie dough, battered and fried.
- Fried Guacamole Bites. Scoop of guacamole, breaded and fried, served with ranch dressing or salsa.
- Country Pride Peach Cobbler on a Stick. Peach cobbler with dumplings rolled in pastry dough and fried, covered in brown sugar and cinnamon, and skewered.
- Fernie's Fried Chili Frito Burrito. Chili and Fritos inside flour tortilla, fried and topped with choice of cheese sauce, shredded cheddar, jalapeños, sour cream, hot sauce, and onions.
- B.W.'s Original Fried Banana Pudding. Banana pudding inside fried tortilla, topped with whipped cream and powdered sugar or cinnamon.

You mean the peach cobbler on a stick *isn't* fried? Is this the start of a health kick at the State Fair?

dear kirk: "Country Pride Peach Cobbler on a Stick. Peach cobbler with dumplings rolled in pastry dough and FRIED, covered in brown sugar and cinnamon, and skewered."
the only one not fried is the latte - it's on a fried pastry, but the rest of it is un-fried. THAT is the healthy option

Are you sure they fried Key Lime Pie? I'm a big fan of the Chocolate Covered Frozen Key Lime Pie (small stand over Big Tex's right shoulder). But I've thankfully never seen it fried.

chocolate-covered and frozen is exactly what they do to the Key Lime pie. (i love that thing, too.) i think typing the word "fried" 14 times in a single story fried my brain.

Are we still the fattest state? I guess if not, we will be by the end of the year.
