DEEP FRIED ICE CREAM CHEESEBURGER

On this website we have spoken a lot about about food that you have been able to acquire or buy at State Fairs and today we look at another one. This week we are heading to Florida for something that combines two family favourites together.

The Ice Cream Cheeseburger was released at the Tampa Florida State Fair, the even happens between the 9th and the 20th February. The product consists of a burger that is accompanied with pickle, lettuce, tomato bacon and cheese. On top of these ingredients there is a slab of ice cream that has been deep fried for 10-15 seconds and then topped with cinnamon and cornflakes.

The burger can be described a having a sweet and salty flavour to it and is also known to be nicknamed the milk-shake burger.
