Once again, we braved the Burbs of Orange County and made our trek to the Orange County Fair to cash in on our tickets to one of the most popular rock acts of the modern era, The All-American Rejects. While we made it to the fair well before the headlining act, we made it a point to grab some fair food for dinner, as it is required of us.
My goal this time around was to nab some of the extra-large onion rings and a strawberry julius. I recently read that most people will throw out their usual diet routine for fair food and I can clearly understand their motivation. Where else does one have the opportunity to devour deep-fried twinkies or avocados? When else are you allowed to consume a giant milkshake and a fiery bratwurst with no guilt?
After a short walk, we reached our destination and assembled a king-sized dinner consisting of some gargantuan onion rings, a strawberry julius, lemonade, a giant smoked turkey leg, and some grilled corn on the cob (2 cobs!). The julius itself wasn't bad, but I'm still preferential of the orange variety. I think it wasn't quite whipped enough and too frozen for my tastes, but still serviceable. As for the rings, they were battered to death and served with ranch dressing. Big enough that I was only able to consume 1 and 1/3 rings, they were impressive, but still just a giant version of the classic ring.
