The Blue Balsamic

This "high-end sammie" at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto, Ontario has Noah Cappe saying, "Yes, cheese!" Made with cheddar, goat cheese, muddled blueberries, basil and balsamic reduction, it's the perfect balance between salty and sweet.

Cheesesteak Donut Burger

Down at the South Florida Fair, Noah took a bite out of the Cheesesteak Donut Burger. Two ounces of beef sirloin with Montreal steak seasoning plus a 4-ounce beef patty, are placed between two sugar-glazed doughnuts. The combination is mind-blowing.

Zanado Fries

These aren't your average potato swirls. Tornado potatoes originated in South Korea, but one vendor at the South Florida Fair is putting his own Italian twist on the tasty dish. Zanadao Fries include homemade pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese that's melted using a blow-torch.

Bacon Burger Bomb

The Triple B at the Florida State Fair is sure to get your heart pumping. The award-winning burger is woven using strips of bacon, before being smoked for three hours. If a burger, a filet mignon and a meatloaf had a baby, it would be this sandwich.

The Five Pounder

Noah Cappe headed down south to the State Fair of Louisiana where he attempted to eat the Five Pounder; a burger so enormous it takes four hands just to hold it. Boasting a beef patty, potato swirls and one pound of onion rings, it's safe to say this burger is best for sharing!

The F-Bomb

Noah Cappe says this is the perfect way to start your day. The F-Bomb, found at the National Western Stock Show Rodeo in Denver, Colorado, places a hot dog and bacon strips on thick, crunchy pieces of French toast. There's also eggs, cheese and buttered caramel sauce, of course!

People are buzzing about this burrito found at the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo in Texas.

PB and J Ice Cream — essentially a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in a cone — is a big seller at the Great New York State Fair. "Why waste your time having lunch and dessert when you can combine it?" Noah asks.

Cheeseburger Egg Roll

Why have an egg roll and then a cheeseburger, when you can have both at the same time? This fusion creation from the Norfolk County Fair in Simcoe, Ontario is topped with a signature bacon ranch sauce and fried onions.
