People who attend the Iowa State Fair next month can try over 40 food items that are NEW to this year’s fair. Three of those foods were selected Tuesday for inclusion in the Iowa State Fair People’s Choice Best New Food Contest. Fair spokesperson Mindy Williamson says one of the finalists is called Pork Almighty.

The Pork Almighty will be sold with a drink for $12 at the Steer N Stein. Pork is also featured in another finalist — Iowa’s Big Pork Leg.

That item will be sold at a booth just east of the Administration Building on the fairgrounds. The third and final new food item in the contest is called the Mig’s Hickory Smoked Chicken BLT Wrap.

Fairgoers who sample the three new food items will cast their vote for their favorite. The 2017 Iowa State Fair in Des Moines is scheduled for August 10-20.
