Coming to a Midway Near You
Tuesday, July 8th, 2008I give you: deep-fried bananas foster cheesecake on a stick, official food of the 2008 Indiana State Fair. Listen closely, and you can hear the vein throbbing in Michael Jacobson’s forehead.
Hat tip: John Hiatt. Yeah, that John Hiatt. He mused about the dish between songs at his concert in Alexandria Sunday night. Hiatt’s a fellow Hoosier. And an all-around badass.

looks fantastic. Seriously, has Indiana turned a corner? Last year it was Fried Pepsi. But….this looks decent. Albeit still capable of causing a heart attack.
Would it be un-libertarian to ban people who want to ban food like this?
OM NOM NOM NOM
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Now I’m hungry.

#1,
It’s health food. No trans fats allowed at the Indiana state fair so it’s gotta be good for you.
we’re seeing John Hiatt in St. Louis on Monday and you’re right, he is a BADASS!
hopefully, they’ll be selling deep-fried bananas foster cheesecake on a stick in the lobby…
State Fairs Rule. You gotta love an event that encourages vendors to find new ways of deep frying just about any edible substance and then putting it on a stick.
Oh, now that’s just cruel. Showing a pregnant woman a delectable delight she has no hope of eating… *sobs*
O cruel, cruel world!
I’ll just stare at the picture a little longer.
Hey, this pregnant woman is only in Michigan, theoretically I could go get some….don’t give me any ideas…
Chicago declared it illegal this morning.
Enjoy your arterial blockage.
