Nostalgic cravings at the Minnesota State Fair.

- BY HANNAH GOLDFIELD

TAKE ME BACK

For Minnesotans, the fair's offerings. sare a smorgasbord of Proustian attachments.

In the lead-up to the Minnesota State Fair, a twelve-day fête of starch and fat which marks the end of every summer, the event's organizers release a highly anticipated list of competitively decadent new fair foods. The débutantes of 2025 included chicken-fried bacon, Grandma Doreen's Dessert Dog (vanilla ice cream encased in slabs of coffee cake, on a stick), and the Uncrustaburger (with deep-fried peanut-butter-and-jelly Uncrustables instead of a bun). Other new entries painted a picture of Minnesota's evolving tastes and demographics. Baba's, a Palestinian American hummus company based in Minneapolis, unveiled the Fawaffle, topped with a generous scoop of tahini butter, cherry tomatoes, and fresh mint. A window run by Minneapolis's Midtown Global Market sold Somali Street Fries, smothered in stewy, spicy beef suqaar. Between snacks, I sipped a savory dill-pickle iced tea, garnished with a crunchy spear and a zesty Tajín rim.

CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTORS

The second Presidency of Donald Trump has been unprecedented in myriad ways, perhaps above all in the way that he has managed to cajole, cow, or simply command people in his Administration to carry out even his most undemocratic wishes with remarkably little dissent.
