New this year, Famous Dave's (barbecue rib chain *
http://famousdaves.com/) took the Fair new-food-on-a-stick by storm this
year with its new item, Pig Lickers. <Barb's eye roll in her head>
Pigs rule. Another bacon-on-a-stick item was a thick slice (weight?
dunno) threaded on a skewer, fried on a grill (I watched). Dave got
TONS of free publicity for it. Taste was okay‹meaty and lean, I
thought, with the last inch-and-a-half dipped in chocolate for a thick
layer of chocolate. Price was $5 for about 5 pieces served in a paper
sno-cone-type cup. Check out zoebakes.com for chocolate chip cooks
with Mo's bacon-chocolate bar.
