vlog archives: One family attempts to eat from every stand at Iowa State Fair
With so many choices at the state fair, we like the pork chop on *** stick. There's something for every taste bud. You could eat for days. Cheese curds, and kids really like that, or you could try to match the Fishers. Good luck. We're the Fisher family, and we're on *** quest to eat everything at the state fair. That's right, 180 vendors, 180 items in one day. roasted corn on *** root beer float cheese on *** stick. tenderloin would be great. Clad in orange, the family of seven has taken on this self-appointed, fair sanctioned, and gut-busting quest. This is *** corn dog with lots of ketchup and mustard on it. I'm looking for everything to digests really quick, but this is the fair deep fried taco, and almost everything is *** digestive nightmare. That's the roll Aids. The roll's looking pretty. It's pretty small. Mom, Dad, and the kids started at 7:30 a.m. We've eaten at 49. Places so far and it's 1 12:01. I had *** gizmo earlier, Carl's gizmo, and that was the best. Rick, Diana, Rhonda, Zack, Becky, Paul, and Sarah are each eating every 15 minutes or so. Yeah, these are all in the markings of what I've eaten. Every item is recorded. I need the number of the place and get it marked. Some stops are popular. Yeah, my girls are trying to sneak my Wonder Bar out on me. No, I want the Wonder Bar. I want the Wonder Bar. Others aren't. Take it. Just take it. During digestive breaks. Normal eaters can't imagine the consequences. They're definitely going to be sick tomorrow morning. I'll tell you that right now. I would be laying on wing all night sick, but naps don't last long. There's food in them are fairgrounds, and there's *** little room left. Becky, your turn. You gotta get. Turkey leg would make me really sick. Surely. Um, let's try some of that delicious watermelon.
