One innovative event at the New York State Fair that has caught on in the past few years is the Taste NY Food Truck competition.
This year the convoy rolls into a new location in the New York Experience festival grounds on Sunday and Monday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
About 20 trucks will be on hand each day, all serving $3 samples of their tastiest cuisine, competing for votes from customers. The top three vote-getters each day receive Aldi gift cards of $1,000, $500 or $250, courtesy of the grocery company.
Sample items include such creative eats as baked Alaska, Thai sesame crunch, trash can sundae and Maryland crab mac and cheese. Competitors are required primarily to use food products grown or made in New York for their entrees.
