I haven't been to the Minnesota State Fair yet -- still avoiding the crowds. Still, as a newcomer to Minnesota, I should go, for no other reason to explore the food booths.
Now, I've been warned that fair food can be unhealthy and if not eaten soon, less than appetizing. But I might find something good there -- and I'm not talking about corn dogs.
Tim Nelson's story on fair food has me wondering whether at the fair I might find the Caribbean food I grew accustomed to in Florida: Cuban, Jamaican, Haitian and Puerto Rican cuisine -- though I kind of doubt it.
And since this is Independence Day in Trinidad & Tobago, roti is in order.
Can anybody help a newcomer out?
