Carnival Food

Why is carnival food the best tasting grub on the planet? I have eaten some very exquisite food in my lifetime, but it will never compare to a corndog at the county fair. The smell of cotton candy is so far-reaching and brings happy thoughts to all who intake the odor of burning sugar. Cotton candy tastes just okay for me, and I can only take in so much of the sugary spider weblike stuff before I toss it. Kids will get a sugar high that puts them into the stratosphere of crazed behavior that most adults can't handle. Anything deep-fried is the true essence of the county fair and carnival food. I never had a deep-fried artichoke heart until I went to a fair. Corn on the cob on a stick?... what the hell is going on here. I can't find those sticks anywhere in the store. Snow cones only come out perfect at an outdoor event. When you try to make them at home, they fall apart. Churros, corndogs, and dipped cones round out my list of favorites. Any sign of healthy food choices has been banned from these places. But there will be a day when some politician feels the need to pass a law requiring salad to be put into the mix.
