I come to the ex every summer. It's such a dump but I love it!
I refuse to go on rides or play games, but being the foodie I am, I'm sure you know why I go... :)
We went to the food building as soon as we got there. One of the foods I had seen on the website beforehand was the garlic snow crab fries, well that just so happened to be the first thing I saw and instantly purchased. Oh my goodness it was delicious!! Not what I expected and the crab was kind of dry and you had to scoop everything together to get it all in a bite but nonetheless it was great!!
Then I decided it was a really great idea to have a timbit poutine. My own in fact! It wasn't. They were literally just timbits with whipped cream and some crap sprinkled on top. I got the cinnamon french toast wahtever one. I don't even like whipped cream that much! If I had known that was it would have definitely wasted the calories on something else!!
THEN we ventured over to the food truck area and my boyfriend got himself a gnocchi poutine which i obviously ate 1/4 of :P it was amazing! I forget what it consisted of besides gnocchi haha, some kind of meat. But very good!
THEN we got those funky pineapple smoothie drinks that are actually served IN A PINEAPPLE! They were good but definitely overpriced and unnecessary for us to buy but hey, YOLO!
Finally to finish the day off we went back to the food building to Fran's diner and got a thanksgiving waffle. The waffle was made ENTIRELY out of stuffing. It was unreal but definitely not necessary to eat as I was already so full before buying it but couldn't not try it!
So much good and terrible for you food at the ex this year, I was really impressed! There is so much more I would have wanted to try but sadly didn't have the room (or funds!)
