I'm not a big "fair" person, but I'm definitely going this year. The weather's been nice (if not a little on the hot side), and you just can't beat the county fair if you like people-watching. But if you've watched anything about the fair on the local news, you'd think that the best thing about the fair is... all the weird crap food that they have. You know, like deep fried burgers, or mac and cheese (deep fried) on a stick. Seriously. People throw some weird shit together and just sell it as food... and, no big surprise, people love that shit. Now, I'm not like, a big healthy eater or something like that, but seriously, just thinking about some of that "food" makes my arteries hurt.
Anyway.
So, I've done some thinking about this... why hasn't anyone capitalized on the popularity of "There's Something About Mary" and sold some meat in a cone? Seriously, think about this... you'd get a big waffle cone, and then a selection of meats. Like at the deli. A cone with some thinly sliced roast beef actually doesn't sound all repulsive. Or how about this? Maybe a Philly cheesesteak in a cone? Or a gyro in a cone? Come on, it doesn't sound that horrible, does it? So why hasn't anyone tried this out?
OK, maybe those things don't sound that good. Maybe if they were deep-fried...
