KCCI Archive: Family attempts to eat 180 Iowa State Fair foods
with so many choices at the state fair. We like the pork chop on a step. There's something for every taste bud, but long you could eat for days, cheese kurds and kids really like that. Or you could try to match the fishers. Good luck for the fisher family. And we're on a quest to eat everything at the state fair. That's right. 180 vendors, 180 items in one day.
