Wisconsin State Fair, Saturday

[needsacatchphrase]

Well, Jane had mentioned checking out ridiculous Midwestern fair food with Wanda sometime this summer. And it was a good enough weekend to escape the heat of Maryland for the cloudy and slightly drizzly weather of Wisconsin.

Portalocity was great for that.

"Are pickles a thing here?" Jane asked like Wanda might now. Wanda who was decidedly not from the US. Yep.

She shook her head. "No, I'm good. It's not so bad once the cream cheese hits."

Not, like, great, but it grew on you after a couple chews.

They were far from the land of bizarre Old Bay combinations that somehow worked, that much was evident here.

"Corndog?" she offered, still giving the donut a look of suspicion.

Wanda snorted. "No, thank you."

Somehow adding pig to the cream cheese and the donut and the pickles of it all seemed like a recipe to vomit. Especially if they went on the Tilt-A-Whirl later.

"I'm pretty sure if New Asgard's goal is bringing more tourists to the area, the pickle corndog and pickle donut might not be the way to go."

"Strongly agreed," Jane replied with a serious nod. "Maybe if they stick with tried and true fried foods and just give them mythological names?"

Wanda nodded. "Maybe we can sneak some puns in there too."

"Bad puns because what's the point in good ones with fair food," Jane replied. "It's supposed to make you groan a little, I think."
