The Florida State Fair is back, and besides carnival rides and farm animals, a vast menu of over-the-top (often fried) gut bombs are once again up for grabs. 

This year the fair’s culinarians are outdoing themselves with various belly-busters on deck, like soul food egg rolls, pierogi sliders, potato mozzarella Korean corn dogs, BBQ-stuffed waffles and more.

Tickets to the Florida State Fair, located at 4800 U.S.-Hwy. 301 N, and happening in Tampa from Feb. 6-17, are available now and start at $7 for children.

Here’s what’s on the menu at this year’s fair.
