Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a new WINNER! Apparently state fairs in the U.S. seem to compete annually to offer the most outrageous thing we can put into our bodies. Could there be anything worse than the Fried Butter at the Texas State Fair? Well, maybe so: an entrepreneur at the Big E (the Massachu- setts State Fair) has created the Craz-E Burger: a cheeseburger with two strips of bacon wedged between a glazed donut! A new taste sensation? Salty and sweet? Crunchy and chewy? Probably more like heart attack and stroke.
Do you think there will ever be a speed-eating contest for these babies? It probably wouldn't be to see who could eat the most in thirty minutes, but more likely to see who was still alive after eating these for thirty minutes!I have two sisters-in-law who can't wait to go to the Big E to enjoy the foods. Girls, I think you're Craz-E!!
(Props, by the way, to Stephen Dunn and William Weir of the Hartford Courant for this scrumptious photo and the article I've attached to the AQUA WINNERS sidebar. You have to hand it to the reporters who put their lives on the line to do this type of investigative reporting. Hopefully this Craz-E Burger got no closer to Stephen's mouth than we see in his photo.)

Big E report, October 1st, 2009: My wife went with her two sisters to this state fair and, you guessed it, they all tried the Craz-E Burger! They split one three ways and they LIKED IT! They tried other crazy things out there, too, and my wife said the fried cheescake was the best. Good grief -- my own wife is among the willing victims.
