Returning to the Iowa State Fair since my visit on opening day [seeblog post]  I resolved to try some otherfood items I had not eaten before at the Fair.

Having tried the Polish with everything at Hardenbrook's sausagestand, I had to try a foot-long hot dog with the same treatment:loaded up with kraut and grilled peppers and onions. In alllikelihood the best foot-long on the grounds, but next year I'llreturn for the Polish sausage, or better yet sample the bratwurst.

Nearby, another stand offered foot-longs but with the added bonusof chili for a topper. The chili is innocuous enough and quitebeany, but the wiener pales in comparison to Hardenbrook'ssuperior product.

I stumbled upon one of Colonial's nut roll stands on the Triangleand tried their dark chocolate-dipped cashew roll on-a-stick: awad of chewy nougat speared on a stick, dipped in caramel, rolledin cashews, then finished with a dip in chocolate. Extraordinarilygood!

On a lark I sought out the hard-boiled egg on-a-stick, offeredfor free in the Agriculture Building. I sprinkled some of Cookie's zesty FlavorEnhancer seasoning and tucked into aperfectly-cooked egg with none of that greenish hue around thesurface of the yolk, an often seen result of overcooking.

Lastly I sauntered up to Crescenti's for one of their fry breadsandwiches, this one with salami and shredded mozzarella tuckedinside. The fry bread was neat to eat but the salami and cheese,both still chilled, were a disappointment. Had the salami beengrilled or at the least microwaved the cheese could have meltedand made this sandwich noteworthy.
