the Sin in Wisconsin

Annually, the Wisconsin State Fair invades the Milwaukee area at the Wisconsin Fair Grounds, just a short distance from Miller Park.



Hundreds of thousands of people visit the week long celebration for music, miscellaneous attractions, and cream puffs. The long lines are astounding as it snakes inside the building and gives you a front row seat at them being made.


Personally, I could only handle one, but there are others who order them by the dozen. There are even different lines that you could just pick up an order of cream puffs.



My friend Nate, could not stop talking about a delicacy he tried the year before... Deep Fried S'mores. Several items are deep fried such as cheese, twinkies, candy, but the s'mores are something special.






The Deep Fried S'more is possibly the most delicious food I have ever tried. When you bite into the crust, there is a melty mixture of chocolate and marshmallow that tastes like heaven.

As you can probably tell, the Wisconsin State Fair isn't the finest low-calorie experience. Gluttony is the sin of choice, but at least it's a delicious choice!
