Chocolate covered cranberries on a stick. So very Wisconsin.

A State Fair stick-up


State Fair continues to up the stick ante each year. Three years ago there were 32 foods on a stick, up one over the previous year. The following year, the count jumped to 44 choices.

Last year, fair vendors added a whopping 21 more options. This year there are more than 70 menu items on a stick at the Wisconsin State Fair.

Of course, some of the items are the same but dished up by different restaurateurs and vendors. You've got to admit, 75 is still a pretty impressive stick count.

One of the most interesting – and local – additions is chocolate covered cranberries on a stick, on offer at the Wisconsin State Cranberry Growers Association booth in the Wisconsin Products Pavilion.

Here are your choices and where you can find them on the fair grounds. The latest additions are marked with an asterisk.
