    The bacon cream corn and blackened shrimp stuffed baked potato look pretty tasty, actually. The pecan pie poppers look like a good idea that's not as well executed as it could be. Needs a LOT more pecans, all through the muffins. None of the 'choice award' list looks appealing to me.

      Pretty much anything with bacon is good in my book.
      Note to self: Hot glass looks like Cold glass.

          My guess is probably some kind of dough that's deep fried.

              Not exactly state fair food, but my local Triple-A baseball team had a "Bacon Week" at their ballpark, where they offered all sorts of things made with bacon, like bacon pizza, bacon-topped funnel cakes, bacon nachos, bacon fries, and hot dogs with bacon. My personal favorite was the bacon funnel cakes, they were delicious!

                Hm I think the bacon creamed corn sounds pretty good, and the shrimp fritters, but most of them just sound disgusting.

                I have pretty simple tastes, I like classic funnel cakes, the deep fried/tempura veggies, corn on the cob [butter, salt and pepper and occasionally with the garlic parmesan sprinkles] and the Big E baked potatoes.

                    I want the bacon queso burger (of course mom thinks I'm nuts).

                    WTF is a "Fat Smooth"? Looks like Munchkins on a stick with chocolate sauce.

                      The second link in the OP outlines what the new foods are. Fat Smooth sounds like an apt description of what it actually is.

                      The Fish Bowl sounds like a diabetic nightmare.
