A mix of sweet and hot Italian sausage. Peppers and onions were done in the wok to get some char on them.
One of these is pickled sweet pepper relish I made last year. Fries were twice fried like Five Guys. I didn't tell my wife that. As she started eating them she said "this needs malt vinegar" and I knew I had won. I got her some malt vinegar. I was out of provolone so I went with cheddar.

Cost per person $4.35 Cost at street fair: $24-$35

Well, maybe a little expensive per person, in relative terms, but compared to the street fair cost... But, come on, 35?! REALLY?!

Who would actually drop 35 PER PERSON on that?! It looks good, yeah, but not for 35 goddamned dollars!!!

It does look good tho, very nice :D

You are a parent of teens. You are at the fair. Everyone is hungry. You need three sausage hoagies and some fries. You just spent $35 because the alternative was hungry children and all the problems that come with that.

If you know of these prices beforehand, you just bring your own food to the fair!

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Space is limited and beer at a fair costs more than food. It's a resource allocation issue.

[–] gon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Beer costs more than food... I've no words.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I think you may have been not understanding the surplus of levity I was approaching the situation with.

[–] gon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 hours ago

Don't worry.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 6 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

$35 per person, though? Is that for real?? I'd boycott the shit out of a fair like that lol.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 8 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

$35 total. 11.xx per person

[–] gon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 14 hours ago

Oh alright, this makes more sense.

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 4 points 20 hours ago

$23 per person, easily. In the Bay Area anyway. $18 for dog, $5 for fries. +$ for a drink.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@piefed.zip 4 points 20 hours ago

look up food cost videos at the Texas state fair on YT. It is absolutely out of control. Completely unhinged.
