Coming to a fair near you: Chocolate-covered bacon – JSOnline

Food on a stick is a staple at the Wisconsin State Fair.

At this year’s fair, the usual offerings will be sold: cheesecake, deep-fried Oreo cookies, and cheese and hot dog, all on a stick.

This year, however, vendors have outdone themselves.

How does chocolate covered bacon on a stick sound to you? Is that appealing or disgusting?

Or fried peanut butter and jelly on a stick?

Or chilled cookie dough on a stick?

They’ll all be there at the fair from Aug. 6 to 16.

Patrice Harris, a Fair spokeswoman, said the chocolate covered bacon will be offered by Machine Shed restaurant. She said she believed it was the first time the sweet and salty confection will be sold at the fair.

Chocolate covered bacon is not new. The Minnesota State Fair offered it last year.

But our question is simple: Will you eat it?

Here’s the back story on the treat.
