Beef burger, pfft! Try the cricket burger
The PNE's food line up is weirder and wackier than ever with options that will surely add a few pounds to the waistline. Here are seven things to try — if you're brave enough.
Cricket burger and fries
If you're squeamish about eating bugs, maybe avoid this one. Eating insects is common all over the world, and the PNE has its own version with the roasted BBQ cricket burger.
"High in fiber and protein, this burger packs a gratifying and tasty crunch," says the PNE. Foodies can also try the fries topped with roasted BBQ flavoured crickets and gravy.
Crispy chicken feet
The name says it all. While a staple in many cuisines, it's the first time the PNE will have something like it.
Chili lime popcorn shrimp perogies
A twist on the traditional perogies which are topped with crispy panko shrimp, a sweet chili glaze and sriracha mayo and served with lime and mint cucumbers.
Double bacon mac and cheese Super Footlong Hotdog
What's a fair without a hot dog?! To celebrate Super Footlong Hotdogs 60th anniversary at the fair, try their latest gamble: bacon with homemade mac and cheese.
Cherry cola soft serve
Pretty much self-explanatory.
Rolled ice cream waffle taco
Indulge your sweet tooth with ice cream rolled with your favourite toppings and served in a waffle shaped like a taco. Because tacos are all the rage.
