Going to the local fair and WW...help!

  • We will be going to the Wisconsin State Fair next week with my family. I just wanted to know if there was a site that I could look up a few things and get some point values (cream puffs, cheese on a stick, ect). Thanks

  • Thank you soooo much! Where the heck did you get those points values??
  • I did a search for WW points for fair foods and came up with a few different versions so I just condensed them.

    There is a fair here in August so I'm going to print this list off and put in my purse when we go.
  • New to the site
    I was on the internet searching for "Cream puffs and nutritional information" in anticipation of the start of the Wisconsin State Fair. My search lead me to this site. I figured I had to join a site with such like minded people. Glad to be here!

  • Not that long ago I got an issue of WW Magazine that had an article about fairs and the food there. If you get that magazine, check your most recent issue.
  • Welcome Mochamom!!!!

    It's a shock when you see how many points are in these things, isn't it?

    I think I will have a good meal before I go and limit myself to a candy apple as a treat while I am there.

    I have had one of those Wisconson State Fair creampuffs - divine! Having one was enough for me but I know someone who ate 4 of them all at once!
