The Top 5 Foods at Folsom Street Fair
A trio of fair-goers in traditional garb.
San Francisco is known for many things, but there is perhaps nothing it’s better known for than Folsom Street Fair. Folsom Street Fair is the Bay Area’s largest annual farmers market. It falls on the last Sunday of every September, and that’s done on purpose to coincide with the end of harvest season. We all know how much we love the annual harvest here in the Bay, and our love for that harvest is celebrated during Folsom. Folsom Street Fair. Here are the Top 5 Foods that will be inside of it:
Pumpkin Spice Shooters
They smell great too!
Pumpkin spice shooters are a perfect way to celebrate all the bounty that Folsom has to offer. Although they won’t be as available this year due to them containing Red 40, never fear to ask a friendly Folsom-goer if they happen to have one on hand. Save some for the rest of us now! Hehe
Edible Sunscreen
Are you getting hungry, or is it just me?
You can’t spell “Folsom” without free sunscreen. That’s because its so hot during the fair, that everyone takes their clothes off because of it. You may have known about the free sunscreen, but did you know that Folsom’s sunscreen is specifically edible? You won’t find this info in many food magazines, but here at Radicchio Salad we’ve been eating it for years. The SPF 50 is especially good this year.
Outdoor “Anal Tasting Menu” From Californios
Suppository? More like I suppose this will taste delicious! In my butt.
Two-Michelin-starred restaurant Californios is offering a special Folsom-inspired anal tasting menu only available on Folsom. The annual $495 a person anal tasting menu (before add-ons) will be composed of seventeen courses that you can put in your butt. Dishes include heirloom corn on the cob that you put in your butt, tacos made with ancient masa and “Iberico” pork raised in Walnut Creek on a diet of California acorns that you can also put in your butt, and something called a “line,” which is just a row of the most delicate, raw Rancho Gordo beans since you don’t need to actually cook the beans since you’re putting them in your butt.
Eating Nothing
Yum!
What better way to celebrate the bounty of Folsom than to let others experience it for themselves? That’s why eating nothing is a top Folsom tradition, and in fact the may most people choose to celebrate. Isn’t that nice?
The Lemonade
Yep.
Last but not least, of course, The Lemonade. You knew this was coming. Happy Folsom! Drink responsibly.
