The Best of Fair in the food category goes hands-down to the kangaroo speidie. I kid you not.

As I do every year, I hunt down the newest Fair food and give it a sample. Last year, Alligator Bites were offered for the first time. My daughter and I went down and I bought 2 samples and we each tried it. I hated it. She asked me what kind of chicken it was. Lord, how I wish I could have explained that joke to her.

This year, the same place that sells Alligator Bites has expanded to Kangaroo meat. I walked up and asked the Ozzzie behind the counter for a Kangaroo bite. I can only describe it as being absolutely delicious. It melted in your mouth like a tenderloin tip steak. It was dreamy and to die for. Quickly, I ordered a Kangaroo spiedie and wolfed it down. From all the food at every corner of the Fair, I must confess that I have eaten the best the Fair has to offer. Do not miss this opportunity. Be careful though because they will charge you a dollar for the bite, and if you want a sandwich, it will be another $7. They will try and get $8 from you. Growl a little bit and they will settle. Oh, and in case you are wondering, the sandwich tasted like Koala.

Along with your fantastic sandwich, the guys that work and own the stand are wonderful to just listen to. The are constantly entertaining, one joke after another. Find them before it is all gone; next to the potato thingie in the Agriculture Building.
