Food on a Stick #21, Vegetarian Corn Dog

June 14, 2011 By Johnna Leave a Comment

This was highest on the list of Foods on a Stick to find at the Iowa State Fair, the vegetarian corn dog.  It’s interesting to me that of all places to find this, it was in Iowa.  I was surprised that the state #1 in pork production and in the top 10 of beef production…
