Howdy folks! Can you smell it? It's the unmistakable scent of The State Fair of Texas - corny dogs, barnyard animals and fried butter. Yes, I'm not making that last one up up - Fried Butter was the winner of this years Most Creative New Food. (For a list and description of all of the new foods at the Fair this year, go here:
