If you're from the Midwest, there's some regional staples you know you can always count on – unpredictable storms that will pop up out of nowhere, running across a Casey's on basically any route, and State Fairs with food worth waiting for all year long.
If you're looking to satisfy some of your State Fair cravings but can't make it this year, we have a few things at Casey's we think might do the trick!
Craving a State Fair tenderloin? We've got you covered!
Try our Breaded Pork Tenderloin Sandwich: a delicious pork fritter served on a warm bun – perfect for when you've got a big appetite.
You better believe they take their beef seriously at the State Fair – and that's why even a simple burger can taste 10x better there. Our 1/4 Cheeseburger tastes just as delicious because it's made with a 100% beef patty and is topped with classic American cheese.
Pro tip: Order a Bacon Cheeseburger for that extra fair pizzazz!
While it's hard to beat the mouthwatering yumminess of a big turkey leg, if you're yearning for some turkey, our savory Turkey Sub makes for a tasty and lighter alternative. Our sliced turkey breast pairs nicely with your favorite cheeses and hand-cut veggies. Plus, it won't send you into a food coma afterwards.
What's better than fresh-from-the-oven chocolate chip cookies? Answer: absolutely nothing. While our Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies won't come in a giant bucket, they are just as delicious to eat while on the go.
Pro-tip: Add on a pint of milk to dip your cookies in!
Mini donuts are a family-favorite and we guarantee if you brought home a dozen of our cinnamon-sugar cake donuts, you'd be your family's favorite person.
A Fair Square (also known as a giant crispy rice cereal treat on a stick) may be bigger than your head, but we think our Peanut Butter Crispy Bites are pretty tasty too, and they can be enjoyed all at once or over the course of a couple days.

The creamy peanut butter blended with crispy rice cereal and topped with decadent chocolate icing will make them hard to resist for too long.
We all know and love the classic state fair funnel cake, sprinkled with powdered sugar on top, completing your sugary cravings. Casey's version? Casey’s Chow!
Crunchy corn cereal covered with chocolate, peanut butter, and topped off with the powdered sugar – it’s just as delicious as a funnel cake!
One of the best things about the fair is being able to mingle with friends under the beer tent while enjoying a refreshing cold one.
Recreate the same feeling by getting your favorite domestic and craft beers from select Casey's stores and having some of your friends over for a backyard hangout.

No matter how old you are, a big lemonade on a hot summer day is always lovely.
While lemonades at the State Fair are usually always squeezed fresh, a big lemonade from our fountain drink machine loaded with lots of ice can be just as cool and refreshing when the craving hits.
Cheese curds are a staple at any Midwestern fair – but a little hard to make yourself at home. When you're dreaming of that cheesy goodness, a good substitute is our Potato Cheese Bites: finely chopped potato with cheese breaded in a crispy golden-brown coating. While different, they are just as yummy to munch on.
Pro tip: Grab a side of marinara sauce for added taste!
Big pickles (sometimes on a stick) are juicy, tangy, and the ultimate summer treat.
Oh Snap! Dill Pickle Chips are less messy but hit the spot just like a great big pickle does.
Pick up candy bars or other sweet treats to deep-fry yourself: Snickers, Twix, Oreos, and more are all so, so delicious when coated and deep-fried in batter.
If you're willing to take on the task of frying them yourself, Casey's has your back with all the candy and dessert staples you'll need.
