The backstory

Fairground Eats is made by John B Fraser, who loves hunting down new and unique foods to try at the fair, and does not love the official app or the other third party ones. They all organize food by vendor, which makes "who has the weird stuff" a hundred-tap question. So this app flattens every menu into one searchable list: find the food, save it, rate it, and walk straight to the booth. Built by an eater, for eaters.
