Finding healthy food at a summer fair is a bit like finding icebergs in the Mojave Desert, ballet shoes in a military surplus store, or circus clowns in a Vatican secret meeting. In other words, if it’s easy to find, you’re either in the wrong place or doing something terribly wrong. After all, we go to the fair to do things we don’t do at other times of the year.
