22 unique food items to try at this year's Indiana State Fair

Fair officials have revealed a list — and photos — of 22 new items you'll want to try when you visit the 2022 Indiana State Fair.

INDIANAPOLIS — For many, the food is the best part of the Indiana State Fair.

On Wednesday, fair officials revealed a list — and photos— of 22 new items you'll want to try when you visit the 2022 Indiana State Fair.

Since one person surely can't visit all of the more than 140 different food stands — or can they? — maybe you'll want to get a group together, so that everyone can sample from each other!

Here are some of the unique offerings making their debut this year:
