The county Fair is pretty standard, but the food was not that great. I always see on TV other fairs around the country and their food looks amazing, but the food here was mediocre. We had the corndogs (the hot dog was gross, but the batter was so good and crispy), horchata smoothie (had a weird after taste) latte freeze (tasted like powdered coffee), nachos (these were good cause we like liquid cheese, but they gave us a lot of small broken chips, which we couldn't even eat cause it kept falling apart), and bacon wrapped pork belly (I heard it was alright from my boyfriend, I was not about to eat that). The petting farm animal area was chaotic because of the children, but the animals were super cute, and that was the best part of the fair. It's a nice fair to walk around and hang out with friends, but don't expect much from the food.
