I am going to the MN State Fair on Thurs. I have avoided it several years and am now ready to face "everything on a stick...." I am not sure if other state fairs offer as much food on a stick as the MN Fair but it is rather interesting. Anyway, we used to eat our way through the fair... part of the fun of going.... BUT being gluten-free, I am wondering what is available that is gluten-free. It doesn't have to be on a stick... just GOOD Fair Food. Any suggestions???? I am not sure that watermelon on a stick counts!

I was just thinking of this myself....I have decided not to go and torture myself and my 8 year old daughter who was just diagnosed. I think I will die if I see a corn dog.
Here is what I was considering to be safe. You will have to make sure and ask questions and possibly read ingredients if they have anything for you to look at.
foot long with no bun, onions.
roast corn
pickle on a stick (yuck)
French fries - the fresh cut ones that is all they have at that stand so no cc
apple with Carmel
milk shake
ice cream
lemonade
pork chop
those Aussie potato things, I am not exactly sure whats on them but they look delish
pop corn
snow cone
Have fun and let me know how it was!

Thanks for the suggestions..... I'm going on Friday!!! I was just going to Google "gluten-free @ MN State Fair."

My concerns would be the foot longs are in the same stand as the buns, probably crumbs get on the grill. Were the fries made in a frier that previously fried gluten stuff? I don't know, the state fair makes me nervous. I believe Northland Celiac group has a booth with a list of gluten-free foods. I'm pretty sure I printed one from the internet a year or two ago but can't find it now. But I look at the list, and I don't see how I wouldn't get CCed. The only things I'd get would be milk or the roast corn. I bring my own food
