Keith Lee Returns to Texas to Eat the State Fair | Eater Dallas

"Food critic Keith Lee arranged a family stop during a business trip and spent an evening sampling classic fair fare, noting that turkey legs seemed to be everywhere. He started with a steak kebab the size of his head—well done but seasoned well—and gave it a 5/10, which became his baseline for most items. An ear of corn was served without butter, salt, or seasoning and went unrated. He tried the buzzy cotton candy bacon, which surprised him enough to earn a 5.5/10, and a turkey-leg taco that turned out to be simply shredded turkey leg meat, rated 5/10. The clear standout was a brisket sandwich that scored an 8/10—the highest score of the night—while most other offerings landed around mediocre." - Courtney E. Smith
