Erie County Fair Hosts "Taste Of The Fair"

We are halfway through "The 12 Best Days Of Summer," and today is one of my favorite days of the fair.

Today is the "Taste of The Fair," where the vendors are offering samples of their amazing food for just $3.

There were over 100 different $3 options today across The Erie County Fair. Some of the $3 samples include Red Mashed Potatoes from Tara's concessions, Greek Fries from Venus, Pulled Pork Slider from Brody's BBQ, and a sample size from Pizza AMore.

You can see all the $3 samples that will be available today at the Erie County Fair by clicking HERE.

On top of all these samples that are availble today, you can try one or all of the 41 new food items this year at the Fair.

I had a chance to be a judge in the "New Food" cookoff at the Fair. Check out some of the foods that I sampled during the contest.
