Many assume that the essential foods of summer are of the frozen variety; iced coffee and popsicles are cool treats on a hot day, for sure. But as we enter Stampede season, the defining foods of the season seem to be of the deep-fried, ultra-glazed, dipped-in-cheese (or chocolate) variety. Midway foods — and their infinite weirdness — are what we look forward to when we're thinking of braving the rodeo crowds, so we're tossing dietary health out the window and embracing the call of mac and cheese soft serve.
You can too! Just plug in this week's playlist, grab a handful of Rolaids, and get yourself some double-fried, bacon-glazed doughnuts. Maybe grab a paper bag before you get on the Ferris wheel, just in case.
