After that, fried Mars(tm) bars or fried Twinkies(also 'tm') should be no surprise... ;-)MaskedManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01847118110075039840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-35614892840104687052009-09-08T11:12:28.500-07:002009-09-08T11:12:28.500-07:00A miniature Hereford?!?

I thought it was pretty impressive that there was a vegan food booth at all, in the land of corn dogs, deep-fried candy bars and the like. :-)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-1904821043401590522009-09-08T08:25:51.793-07:002009-09-08T08:25:51.793-07:00If you're going to go vegan, go whole hog (so ...If you're going to go vegan, go whole hog (so to speak) and get a grilled portabello mushroom sandwich. Who needs steak? :-p<br /><br />I enjoy county and state fairs a lot - Much more so than anyone else in my immediate family. So I rarely get to go. :-(MaskedManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01847118110075039840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-53338432724573846672009-09-08T03:56:06.981-07:002009-09-08T03:56:06.981-07:00Oh my getting a goat to do your bidding, I can onl...Oh my getting a goat to do your bidding, I can only imagine the frustration of those kids! Are longhorns making a comeback? Hope so. Great fair photos.<br />I don't know about that Philly Cheesesteak though, I find even the meat variety in the west seems to be suspect, let alone a vegan rendition. I don't suppose whiz was an option! ;-)Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574936988046982209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-18765205101299367752009-09-07T20:33:43.870-07:002009-09-07T20:33:43.870-07:00Fun to see the photos of the fair!

It was actually a tasty blend of grilled onions and brown sauce with some type of thinly sliced product - don't know if it was wheat gluten (seitan) or soy-based - piled on a delicious, soft roll and topped with a cashew cheese sauce.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-108560665760606392009-09-07T12:31:21.983-07:002009-09-07T12:31:21.983-07:00Vegan I understand...but a vegan cheesesteak sandw...Vegan I understand...but a vegan cheesesteak sandwhich?????
