What to Eat at the Alaska State Fair

Half the reason to go to the Alaska State Fair is the food. Here's what to hunt down between the giant vegetables and the concerts.

The cream puffs

A Palmer institution — the fair's giant cream puffs have their own devoted following and the lines to match. Get one early.

Fair classics, Alaska-style

All the deep-fried staples are here — funnel cakes, corn dogs, fried everything — alongside Alaska touches like reindeer sausage and local seafood.

Go hungry, pace yourself

Portions are big and the options are endless. Share, walk, repeat.
