Did you know that it's National Something on a Stick Day? What's your favorite food on a stick? I think mine would be a good old-fashioned corn dog. YUM! 🌽🌭😋⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ A couple of summers go I went to the Wisconsin State Fair and ate EVERYTHING on a stick! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ One of the weirdest thing I've ever eaten on a stick was this deep-fried turducken on-a-stick: fresh roast turkey, duck confit & fried chicken breast layered with homemade stuffing and gravy, battered and On-a-Stick. The TurDucken was then drizzled with WSB Amber beer gravy and Wisconsin cranberry sauce.⁠⠀ 🦃🦆🐔🥢⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ What's your favorite food on a stick? What's the weirdest food you've ever eaten on a stick?⁠⠀
