Last year the number of foods on a stick at the fair went up by one, to 32. This year, there are a whopping 44 options for sticked chow!

Among the oddest, we think, are the chocolate bacon on a stick (at the Machine Shed), cookie dough on a stick (at D&T Concessions) and kettle korn on a stick (at Otte's Old Fashion Kettle Korn).

Here are a couple suggestions for the fair for next year, so we can get the number up to nearly 50 foods on a stick: potato pancakes on a stick, cream puff on a stick, spaghetti sticks and full-sized hamburgers on a stick. And let's not forget khlav kalash.

In the meantime, here's a list of the 44 foods you can eat at the Fair this year.

Grow up, Milwaukee city. It is fun. Kids, aka...the young ones who don't have prejudices yet...love it. What isn't fun about food, rides, and humongous animals? It's also a great way to connect with people from the rest of our fine state.
