Marilyn's Photos - Aug 15 2025 - Time for CNE Food
I am looking through the Featured Food HERE on the CNE website. There are numerous foods with the names "Black" as in black donut and black latte. There are more things with "butter" in them - the butter burger, butter chicken and waffles, butter chicken birria-style tacos, butter ice cream, butter soda, and butter tart funnel cake. Then there are many deep fried things - maple cookies and deep fried frozen watermelon.
And then there are the things you probably can't figure out. What would be in a pickle boat? It is a really big pickle. I don't know how lobster ice cream tastes or how ice cream sandwich hasbrown tastes, either.
I guess that's the draw and the fun. Who knows what each of these special items tastes like? Toronto Life says they've ranked them. Their top pick is poutine dumps and the review says there's nothing fried and no ice cream or butter involved. The next best is the Bacone. It is a habanero and bacon infused cotton candy poof on a creamy passion flakie, crowned with a butter tart and then drenched in maple Timbit glaze. And the third best is the two foot long hot dog. The strawberry and black chocolate crack latter includes a chocolate-coated glass that shatters when you squeeze it, revealing a milky blush-pink latte.
You can read about the rest HERE. There is so much creativity in this madness. At the same time, I think reading about these crazy foods is a good enough experience for me.
Something I noticed this summer is that I haven't seen any blooming rose fields or any sunflower fields. I usually find them, but not this year. So I had to go find a sunflower picture from a few years ago. This is one of the great August flowers.
