CNE food 2019: All the wild new foods at this year’s fair

The CNE‘s 2019 foods have been unveiled, and the funnel cake gods have spoken: We’ll be eating plenty of pickles during the upcoming CNE season (August 16 to September 2), along with fried savoury foods topped with syrup, carnival food chopped up to look like other carnival food, and a sprinkling of scorpion pepper sauce.

Here’s everything you’ll probably immediately regret eating at CNE 2019.

TOP: The most colourful CNE food item of 2019 is this rainbow grilled cheese sandwich from I Love Churros.
