State fairs are one of the highlights of every American summer. Alongside baseball and barbecues, there’s arguably nothing more American than kicking back in September with thousands of fellow fair goers, stuffing your face with foods that have inexplicably ended up in a deep fat fryer.
Unfortunately for everyone who likes to live on the oilier side of life, 2020 has been disastrous for state fairs. As the coronavirus pandemic has spread across the country, large gatherings of drunk, happy diners have become ground zero for dangerous outbreaks, putting the entire fair cycle in jeopardy. However, before you despair about the deficiency of deep-fried bacon, there is a solution.

To keep anyone who was looking forward to spending their August elbow deep in a tub of Minnesotan cheese curds happy, one company has come up with a cunning solution. Offering a range of popular fair treats, State Fair To Go is offering customers the chance to get their favourites delivered straight to their door, including corndogs, mini doughnuts and French fries. It might not be the real deal, but it’s as good as we’re going to get in the circumstances.
Try these epic state fair-style Trash Can Fries:
For $59.99 – with free shipping throughout Minnesota – you can enjoy five sweet corn cobs from Axdahl’s, 12 cookies from Sweet Martha’s Cookies, six corn dogs from Elliott’s Up North, 1.5lbs of French fries from Rosie’s French Fries, 1lbs of cheese curds courtesy of Ellsworth Creamery, and three dozen mini doughnuts from State Fair Mini Donuts.
Demand has already been so high that shipping is now not available until the end of the month, proving that there’s still plenty of appetites for delicious treats, even in present circumstances.

If you want to enjoy what’s on offer outside of Minnesota, shipping to the rest of the country will cost $14.95. All the dishes come with detailed cooking instructions so you can prepare everything to perfection. Given everything that’s going on, we reckon this is as good a way as any to enjoy all the fun of the fair.
