A Ranking of The Most Popular Fair Foods
I spent some time at the Benton County Fair this week and decided to rank some of the most popular fair foods based on some specific criteria.
Criteria - awarding 5 points for each of the following:
- Taste - What is the sensation of the initial bite, and does the flavor get old at then end of eating it?
- Volume of product to cost ratio - Going for as much product possible, while spending the least money.
- Shareability - Is it easy to share with your friends, or is it kinda nasty to?
- Ease of eating - At the fair you are on the go. Can you easily walk around eating this snack?
