Fluffy loved donuts. In fact she ate donuts just about every day. But when Fluffy got a new job that required traveling, she was no longer able to get her favorite donuts from her favorite donut shop. Despite diligent searching as she traveled, she was never able to find donuts that satisfied her craving. What to do?
See us here in 2026
The ncstatefair is here and the number one questions I get asked every year is what to eat and where to find it! I am Raleigh born and raised and have never missed a state fair. This year I thought I would share some of my favorites that are a hit with the family and are sometimes over looked. I love helping people navigate the fair so if you have a question please ask!!

🎢🎠🎡 PART 1 NC State fair food!
In no particular order… tried some 2026 new fair foods! The hot Cheeto balls were unexpected so tasty (but pricey)… I recommend the Nashville hot mozz sticks if you’re an xtra cheesy kinda guy. Amazing fall time vibes with the best people! 🎡🤍🎟️ (swipe for specifics)
Breakfast sausage with buffalo sauce… lowkey underrated. Only $9 🌭
Nashville hot mozz sticks SO YUM 🤤🧀🫕
Cheese pull 💯
Have to get some yummy lemonade 🍋
Fluffy’s cold brew ☕️
INSANE hot Cheeto balls!! 🥵
$25 though…
Incredible sweet, don’t get if you’re sensitive to that… ahem (Brandon)
Blueberry lemonade 🫐
Chicken empanadas for a small snack 🐔
Green apple tiki tea refill 🍏
Philly cheesesteak 12/10 SO yum
Refills 😎
The North Carolina State Fair is officially BACK, and you know I had to be there for opening day!
Came for the food, stayed for the vibes, and left with a full stomach and zero regrets. From fair favorites to a few new finds, here’s a little recap of everything I got into!
Let the fair festivities begin! 🎡

It’s NC State Fair time! 🎡💕
Got to try some of this year’s new foods, and there’s plenty to add to your list! This year’s Media’s Best winners were Biscoff ’Nana Puddin’ from Tropical Delights for sweet and The Boss Hog from Fatboys BBQ for savory 🏆
A little sweet, a little savory, and way too much food to pick just one favorite. My advice is still to go hungry and bring someone who will split everything with you!
Which one are you trying first? 👀#
