Soy sauce ice cream. 500 calories.

An hour on the treadmill. Worthless.

The L.A. County Fair gets me in a submission hold with its carnivore's carnival, pig races, XXL beverages, pretty pirates, cow placenta, and, of course, fried freakiness galore! Believe it or not, I had never ever been to a fair before. (Well, book fairs don't count, right?) I've only heard via second hand regaling of the bizarre bazaar-like atmosphere, plus-sized foodies rolling on Rascals with funnel cake in one hand and a churro in the other, and the booth that deep fries anything that moves... or not.

The Deep End Dining gods were smiling on me that afternoon as I witnessed a moo cow, who just gave birth to a wobbly calf, chew on her freshly ejected afterbirth. It was both a sight to behold and to avoid. Of course, I got it all on camera just for you, my deeplings!



Look! A chick pirate! Just don't call her a wench. Harlot of the high seas isn't good either. I tried that one. Not good.

Anyway, press play and you'll be at the FAIR in HD!!! Enjoy your churro!
