Hi all,
While I love going to fairs and little city events for the people watching, for seeing exhibits, having entertainment, -- I also like the food. And while most if not all things have been cancelled, at least I might be able to get the junk food I like the best after all - that being cheese curds.
One of the concessions companies has set up in the parking lot of our mall. So , in addition to cheese curds, there is lemonade, corn dogs, cotton candy, probably lots of other stuff too.
I have seen another food truck set up too.
I do wish I would see more of the smaller/family owned food trucks .... this is to be tough on them business wise with all events canceled.
Another thought I had is how is it ok to have people go through line to get food, but not to be at the fair, but I suppose it's duration of time that you're in line. If you're at the fair - you want to spend some time. Not to mention if you have kids going on rides or if you're going on rides yourself then I suppose sanitation is a consideration, too. Whereas if you are just buying concessions , then you get in line, get your food and leave.
Have you seen this near you?>

Cheese Curds
Not something I have ever heard of.
I wouldnt be going near any fair or similar event even after lockdown is lifted.
I cant see social distancing working or things being kept clean and sanitized.
Not worth the risk.

@JimBo452020 I found that you can get them in Australia. I'll have to have a look for them one day.

@FayeHazel We can have fried camembert in restaurants so maybe that's the same sort of thing.

Cheese curds is one food item I wanted to like. My late mom and sister raved about cheese curds, but when I finally tried them I didn't like them. I'm tried them years later just in case last time was a bad batch, but no. Cheese curds just aren't my thing. Oddly, I'd try them again if I got the chance.

Setting up in the mall parking lot is a great idea. And why don't more places have cheese curds all the time? Here, you can get them at Walmart and Culvers but I think they are the only ones.

@FayeHazel Already cooked! They are in the deli area, where you get the fried chicken and potato wedges. At least all the Walmarts around here have them.

@xander6464 Oh that's awesome. Our backwards Walmarts don't have that here. (Though they do have the chicken and stuff) - Just another way Iowa is superior to us. Bit further south - has cheese curds in the Walmarts, Has the best cafe with the best onion rings, and home of Xander6464

I agree! If I get to be President (write in Fayehazel!) I'll make that a law. More cheesecurds.
Woah really? Curds @ Walmart? Already cooked? Or you take home and cook? Love me some Culvers , too. :-)
